Second Pair of Monitors: Smaller with additional Subwoofer or 8"?

My speakers are Eris 5s Those are ok for what they cost, but honestly, some JBLs, Kalis, Yamahas, etc would be an improvement over those, and in my opinion a more significant improvement than extending the frequency range of a just-ok pair of speakers. Look into the JBL 308P MkII and Kali LP-8.

New B&O Speakers

For a smart speaker brand, it's great, and I definitely can't argue with the bass output. But bass frequency alone doesn't make a good speaker. The Apple Homepod can do 20Hz at 10dB higher than the Sonos Five, that doesn't make it a good speaker. For accuracy and overall sound quality it's still eas

PA as FRFR?

Dude, I was running JBL 308P Studio Monitors with Yamaha NS-SW300 subwoofer on top for my PC desktop. Bought the Headrush 12 inch FRFR units for jamming with my brother(he drums, I strums). Out of curiosity I tried them as desktop speakers. You know how there's only a handful of studio monitors peop

Looking for PA speakers that can function as studio monitors and have an "enveloping" quality

Cheap, big/loud/enveloping, accurate/clean/lacking distortion. Pick two. You can't simultaneously defy the laws of physics and economics. Plus, the bigger the sound you want, the further away you need to be from it for the sound to gel. For cost efficiency with a bigger sound, JBL 308P or Kali IN8 a

Monitors vs. Live Sound?

JBL 308p should be great. Or maybe you could consider LP8 as well. IN8 would be cool for mixing but might not have the same fun vibe.

Any experience with purchasing from Rockville audio

If you can I would get the 308P, it's so much better and probably doesn't cost that much more. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/jbl-308p-mkii-studio-monitor-review.17338/ https://noaudiophile.com/JBL_LSR308/ B-stock from JBL is only $181 each. https://www.jbl.com/pro-b-stoc

To FLAC or not to FLAC? Search of opinion from people who really using this format.

I use 3 denon sc6000m that are hooked up to my nexusx2, I use nothing but high quality flac files. They are by far the best sounding files, specially if you have quality speakers ( jbl 308p ) you can hear everything in hi definition...

Does it compare to Rumble 100 on the floor next to it no.. but there are times I actually do perfer the monitors -- more when I'm learning a new s

JBL and audiophiles

Have you ever heard the budget 308P mkii's by chance and can compare for me? I know JBL uses the same waveguide design from the M2 for the 308P's. These 308p's stomp on my b&w 685's, Camber 3.0ti's and many more. I found them for $235 brand new in the boxes. An absolute steal. I'd be willing to pay

I’m Looking For Studio Speakers, Not For Mixing, Just So I Don’t Always Have To Wear Headphones.

JBL 308P If they are too big, they have the 306P and 305P, and the 5s sound beefier than HS5s. If you want to hear bass, and don't want a sub, bigger is better, not smaller.
