HiQnet™ Networking

The LSR4300 Series also incorporates the new Harman HiQnet™ protocol that networks all the speakers in a system together and allows full control from the provided wireless remote control or from any computer via a standard USB connection and LSR4300 Control Center Software. With the push of a button or the click of a mouse you can change the system level, choose from any of three different inputs (one analog and two digital), mute and solo individual speakers, and make low and high frequency EQ adjustments.

LSR Linear Spatial Reference Design

The LSR4300 builds on the Linear Spatial Reference technology that has made our LSR6300 Series of studio monitors so popular in recording, broadcast, and postproduction facilities worldwide. The exact geometry of the wave guide, the interaction of the woofer and tweeter, and the final assembly of the injection-molded parts has been redesigned from the ground up to provide accurate off-axis as well as on-axis listening, within a window of +/-30 degrees horizontal, +/- 15 degrees vertical. Attention to these critical aspects results in neutral mid and high frequency response at the mix position and a sound which is smooth and accurate in a wide variety of acoustic spaces.

Surround Smart

The LSR4300 Series is ideal for surround sound use. Up to eight main speakers – any combination of LSR4326 6-inch and LSR4328 8-inch models – and up to two LSR4312SP subwoofers can be easily configured for LCRS, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 SDDS and larger mixing and monitoring applications.

Once all LSR4300 monitors are in place, RMC and HiQNet automatically aligns the entire system, setting relative volume so that the sound from all channels is balanced when it arrives at the mix position. The end result is precise imaging regardless of each monitor’s actual physical placement.

In addition, the ability to centrally control the volume of all the speakers (via the supplied wireless remote control or LSR4300 Control Center software) is particularly useful in surround sound applications where the recording system does not provide a multi-channel monitor volume control, or where adjustable volume is not available when using the mixing system’s digital outputs. Similarly, the ability to selectively mute or solo channels and

to remotely switch between three digital and analog input sources enhances system capabilities by allowing you to monitor not only the main recording system, but also any two additional connected sources such as DVD and CD players, multi-channel processors and encode-decode units. This alleviates the need to purchase additional outboard monitoring hardware.

Selectable Inputs

In this age of digital workstations and control surfaces, it isn’t enough to simply provide an input jack. The LSR4300 offers three separate inputs: stereo high-resolution 96 kHz AES/ EBU and S/PDIF digital inputs, as well as dual balanced analog XLR and ¼-inch inputs with selectable +4dBu / -10dBV sensitivity. This allows it to accommodate a wide range of input sources, including digital workstations, CD players, DVD players, and multi-channel proces- sors. What’s more, you can easily select between inputs with the push of a single button (on either the front panel or the wireless remote) or click of a mouse (via an attached computer and the included LSR4300 Control Center software).

LSR4326P, LSR4328P specifications

The JBL LSR4328P and LSR4326P studio monitors are part of JBL’s acclaimed professional audio lineup, known for their precision, clarity, and innovative technology. Designed for critical listening environments, these monitors are ideal for music production, broadcast, and post-production applications.

One of the standout features of the LSR4328P is its 28/26-watt bi-amplified system, which delivers powerful and detailed sound reproduction. The LSR4328P has an 8-inch woofer and a 1-inch titanium tweeter, while the LSR4326P is equipped with a 6.5-inch woofer and the same 1-inch titanium tweeter. This dual-cone design ensures that both low and high frequencies are reproduced accurately, making them suitable for a variety of musical genres.

Both models include JBL’s patented Image Control Waveguide technology. This unique design enhances the monitors’ stereo imaging and provides a wider sweet spot, allowing listeners to experience a more immersive soundstage. With precise positioning of the tweeter, the waveguide helps achieve a smooth frequency response, which is essential for accurate mixing and mastering.

Another notable feature is the integrated room control EQ, which allows users to tailor the monitors to their specific acoustic environment. This helps to counteract the effects of room acoustics, ensuring that the sound remains consistent and accurate regardless of the listening environment. Additionally, both models support various input options, including balanced XLR and TRS connections, making them versatile for different studio setups.

The LSR4328P and LSR4326P also incorporate advanced DSP technology for refined performance. This includes precise limiting and crossover functionalities that ensure optimal power distribution between the woofer and tweeter. The result is a balanced sound that does not compromise on detail or frequency response.

In terms of build quality, both models feature a sleek, professional design with a durable cabinet that minimizes resonance and distortion. They are equipped with a front-mounted volume control, making it easy to adjust levels during sessions. Together, the JBL LSR4328P and LSR4326P blend state-of-the-art technology with user-friendly features, establishing them as essential tools for professionals seeking high-fidelity sound in their recordings.
