So I'm returning my Mackie CR3's because they just aren't good for mixing. I'm in between the JBL LSR305 and the Yamaha HS5. I have a fairly small space I work in and the monitors are only 6" from the wall.
JBL claims there monitors are great regardless of room acoustics so that's a plus. The JBL's I can get for about 220 while the Yamahas (new) go at 400. I personally like the smaller footprint and look of the Yamahas much more than the JBL's but not enough to justify the $180 price difference. Alternatively, the Yamahas are being sold on Ebay buy some company in "Perfect perfect condition" for just 275...so I might have to splurge.
Does anyone have experience with either of these monitors?
