Gearank Recommendation
The 308P MKII appeared on our recommended list for Studio Monitors from September 2020 until February 2022 when it was out-ranked by higher rated models in its price category.
Although this was previously on our recommended list, there are now more highly rated options available which you can see in our guide to The Best Studio Monitors.
Overview
As a successor to the LSR308, the 308P MKII features the same waveguide profile as seen on their 7 Series and M2 Master Reference Monitors.
Another step up from the previous generation is the use of upgraded transducers and new boundary EQ controls in the back.
The 308P is a natural evolution of the critically acclaimed LSR 308. With a more refined frequency response building on its predecessor’s clear-sounding signature, the 308P is a great pick for small to medium studios.
