Section 1: Introduction 

Congratulations on your purchase of LSR2300 Series Studio Monitors. The LSR2300 Series Studio Monitors meet 
JBL’s high standards for accuracy and long term-reliability in demanding professional applications. All LSR2300 
models incorporate JBL professional transducer and network technologies to provide accurate frequency response, 
exceptional low frequency extension and high SPL capability. JBL LSR Linear Spatial Reference design ensures 
greater accuracy at the mix position in a broad range production rooms. Additionally, each speaker is equipped to 
integrate into professional production systems and work environments.

JBL LSR Linear Spatial Reference Design

Because listening environments vary, JBL designed the LSR2300 system using LSR Linear Spatial Reference 
Because listening environments vary, JBL designed the LSR2300 system using LSR Linear Spatial Reference 
design criteria that improves accuracy at the listening position in a broad range of rooms. The key to accuracy is 
ensuring not just the on-axis sound, but also the reflected sound that reaching the mix position is neutral. While 
most  manufacturers  take  only  a  single  on-axis  measurement  of  the  speaker’s  performance,  Linear  Spatial 
Reference  design  criteria  requires  72  measurements,  360  degrees  around  the  speaker,  yielding  more  than 
1,200 times more data. This data is used in the design of critical system components, enabling JBL to engineer 
complete  systems  that  deliver  smooth  off-axis  response.  The  result:  clear  accurate  sound  at  the  listening 
position in any room.

The LSR2300 Series includes a range of features to meet the needs of demanding audio production 
applications.
 

  

LSR2300 low frequency magnetically-shielded transducers are equipped with 1.5" (LSR2328P and 
LSR2325P) and 2.0" (LSR2310SP) voice coils with robust motor structures to provide excellent low 
frequency performance. By reducing thermal-related effects, the LSR2300 Studio Monitors sound the 
same at low, medium and high levels. The woofers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with 
magnetically sensitive displays and equipment.

 

  

All models are internally amplified with high-output Class A-B monolithic power amplifiers to provide high 
SPL (Sound Pressure Level) for demanding production applications.

 

  

The soft dome magnetically-shielded High-Frequency Transducer in the LSR2325P and LSR2328P 
incorporates optimally damped materials to improve transient response and minimize distortion. By 
reducing distortion in the lower operating range, where the ear is most sensitive, ear fatigue is reduced.

 

  

A JBL Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) Waveguide is precisely engineered to achieve smooth mid and 
high frequency response for a targeted listening window of ±30º horizontally and ±15º vertically. This 
provides greater accuracy at the mix position where the blend of on-axis and reflected off-axis sound is 
critical. The Elliptical High Frequency Aperture around the tweeter optimizes high frequency coverage for 
smoother in-room response above 9kHz

 

  

The LSR2300 series models include balanced XLR, 1/4" and unbalanced RCA connectors, and a variable 
level attenuator to allow interface to a broad range of signal sources.

 

  

High Frequency and Low Frequency Trim controls in the LSR2328P and LSR2325P allow adjustment 
of frequency response to preference, or to compensate for acoustically reflective or absorptive listening 
environments.

 

  

LSR2328P and LSR2325P have integrated mounting points and reinforced enclosures to allow safe wall 
mounting using readily available, industry-standard mounting brackets.

 

  

The LSR2310SP Subwoofer incorporates a professional bass management system with selectable cross-
over settings to optimize low frequency performance in a range of production environments.

 

  

When added to your LSR2300 System, the optional JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller provides control 
of your system and JBL RMC™ Room Mode Correction – JBL’s ingenius technology that measures and 
automatically compensates for the effect of low frequency room modes at the mix position that have 
plagued mix engineers.  More information about the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller is available at 
on the JBL Professional Website

To get the most out of your JBL LSR2300 system, please review this owner’s manual and keep it on hand for 
future reference. Also, please register your new speakers at www.jblpro.com/registration .
