YOUR MIX IS ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR MONITORS

JBL 305P MkII has been equipped with acclaimed 3 Series transducers that now perform even better. Hear deep, accurate and tightly controlled bass, thanks to a long-throw 5" woofer and the patented JBL Slip Stream™ low-frequency port. Enjoy soaring, immaculately detailed highs, via its woven-composite 1" Neodymium tweeter.

JBL engineers took things to the next level with faster HF transient response through fine-tuned ferrofluid damping, and greater low-frequency linearity and reduced harmonic distortion courtesy of an enhanced woofer design. The result is a studio monitor you can trust—with unmatched performance, stunning imaging and neutral frequency response that’s unbeatable in its class.


TAILORED SOUND TO FIT YOUR STUDIO

The dimensions and acoustics of a room can have a major effect on sonic accuracy, and that’s why JBL 305P MkII lets you adjust the response to fit your studio. The new Boundary EQ attenuates the low-end boost that can occur when you place monitors directly on the desktop or near walls. The 3-position HF Trim switch allows you to adjust the high-frequency response of the 305P MkII to tailor it to room acoustics or personal tastes.


PATENTED IMAGE CONTROL WAVEGUIDE

Reveal impressive detail, ambience and depth in your mixes with JBL 3 Series’ groundbreaking Image Control Waveguide. Originally developed for JBL’s flagship M2 Master Reference Monitor, this patented innovation ensures an acoustically seamless transition between the low- and high-frequency transducers and provides an immersive soundstage, with precise imaging. Offering a wide sweet spot and neutral frequency response, JBL 305P MkII delivers a crystal clear representation of your mix, revealing subtle details, even when listening off-axis.
