Which JBLs do you have? I might be in the same boat in terms of A/B testing.
I should have been a little more precise knowing the audience here, but went for brevity. I've got the JBL 305s on my studio desk currently.

So when I say A/B testing, I mostly mean "What's my stuff sound like on 5s vs 8s?" (Not, "What is the difference in sound between these two different 8" brands?"...)

How would these be for nearfield listening? These have be a price mistake I'm guessing.
Very, very bad most likely. Every presonus that's been measured has ranked from bad to abysmal. No reason to think this one will be any different.

Read few reviews which basically says these are good sonically but very spartan in options. That's OK, I just wanted some large studio monitors to play which but I didn't want to pay a lot lol
You're wasting your money on these for sure. Frequency response, if every other presonus is to be used as a guide, will likely be horrific.

It'll sound like trash. JBL has relatively cheap portable setups that work well. These are more trailer park speakers.

Thanks, OP. US Ground to Georgia for 2 of them was $11.45 for me. I had north of $100 in rewards to burn () which made this deal a no-brainer.

That being said, I have two pairs of JBL 306P MKIIs -- one for my standing desk and one for my seated desk setup in my home office. Anybody know if the JBLs or PreSonus would be better? I don't do much mixing -- just general music listening (and have a big ol' subwoofer tied to it).
Those JBL by a thousand country miles. JBL makes some trash too, but not the 306P. Those are quality.

I have a sneaking suspicion these are going to be way too big for me, but we shall see. Thanks for posting OP. Sure seems like a great deal. It'll be interesting to A/B these with my smaller JBLs. That is...if they ship. I'm curious if they'd just cancel the orders if it's a pricing error. FYI Capital One had a 3% cash back at Adorama (it's actually listed as 6% but not for what these fall into).
It's most likely not a price error. They're dirt cheap speakers from a dirt cheap company.

How dumb would this be for nearfield listening on a desk for music and gaming? I have a pair of Kali LP-6v2s which I use for this purpose in a medium sized bedroom. They are 2.5 feet away from me and 3 feet apart between a monitor on some Framework desk stands. Would this be a terrible idea? I know these are bigger but for the price are they meaningful upgrade?
Your Kali are quality. Don't go to these trash speakers.

More bass extension with 8", and less distortion, especially at lower frequencies, all things being equal. But all things are not equal with eris vs your jbl, not at all. Your jbl are much better. If you want to improve your sound, your first step is to get a sub. Those Klipsch RP that keep coming on sale will do. I suggest 12" or bigger, but a great 10" ported can go to 20hz. Your second step is to do some room EQ, either manually with REW and your audio player of choice, or more thoroughly with Dirac or similar. Your third step is to upgrade those speakers or, maybe, to just get more of them and go 5.1.

These speakers look good, 8 inch coaxial active monitors for $100 each? Seems like a good deal.

I am using a pair of Bowers and Wilkins 706 S3's for my office setup but I want more bass extension. Do you think these would be better.

Just add a sub to your setup. It'll sound much better. I have a set of Presonus Eris E5 and they are the worst sounding speakers I own 🤭.

Is this entire thread ai? I lost so many brain cells reading the comments and only learned that these speakers are either complete garbage or an amazing deal.

These are studio monitors. They're intended for a flat response and works be particularly bad as DJ speakers.

Honest question, is there a better setup for $200? I get people saying these are trash in terms of actual studio quality or frequency response, but I'd prefer not to mess with a subwoofer in my space (hence I'm wanting larger drivers), and I'm also on a tight budget. Jbl 6" are 2x the price, jbl 8" are 2.5x, and Yamaha 8" are 4x. What else in the $200-$250 range would be better?

Go for something like the Electro Voice EKX series, maybe EKX12. Consider adding the matching subwoofer, EKX 18SP. Thats probably a reasonable start. Definitely dont want studio monitors, different design and use case.
