JBL MA310 Reviews

Almost a 5 star receiver

By JBLFanJoe
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2026-04-08

I've had this for about a month. Great receiver. It sounds good, looks good and has all the features needed while having a simplistic design (which I love) but has an issue with converting DTS-HD Master Audio to a 2.1 speaker setup. If you have a 5.1/2 setup, you're fine. Dolby TrueHD does this just fine. I had contacted support but they said this model doesn't support DTS-HD Master Audio. It clearly does but doesn't do well for a 2.1 setup as stated above. This is a must for those who enjoy watching Blu-ray movies and should be supported. Yes, you can set your Blu-ray player to convert the signal to PCM but it doesn't sound as good as it is probably being down sampled to 16bit or something. Dolby TrueHD sounds great. I just wish this model supported what other brands are able to do at this price range. Would also love to see a matching Blu-ray/CD player to match this receiver. We have other JBL products such as an alarm clock, soundbar with bass module, headphones, etc. And all those are 5 star products but this takes a hit being it is not able to play or support an old format (Blu-ray audio) properly. Hope to see a firmware update in the future.

Very pleased with this product so far

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been interested for quite some time in setting up a surround sound system in my home so I thought this product would be great opportunity to start the process. I don't yet have a full set of speakers, but so far, I've been very happy with the performance. To start, I was very impressed with the way the product was packaged and protected in the box. It made me feel like the product is a premium product worth protecting. It also gave me confidence that I would not be dealing with a product that received shipping damage, which is far too common of an occurrence for me recently. Once I got the product unpackaged, it was easy to get everything setup a functioning. My only challenge was, when hooked up to the TV audio, the audio didn't sound right initially. But I was able to determine that my issue was the system thought I had a center and rear speakers, so once I corrected the setup to just include front speakers, the sound worked great. Speaking of the setup, I was very impressed with the amount of setup options available, so I could dial in the system to work just right for my application (speaker spacing, speaker height, dialogue enhancement, bass, treble, size of speakers for front, center and rear, etc). Once I got the setup just how I liked it, I tested out TV audio, movie audio and music. The sound quality was excellent for every application. I am really looking forward to adding center and rear speakers to my system! Another feature that I have used and enjoyed is the Bluetooth connectivity. It was very easy to put the receiver in pairing mode and connect it to my phone. I am now able to easily play music in my home when I'm doing work or something other than watching TV. Last, I think the receiver looks great! It is a more simplistic design, but that is what I prefer. It blends into my TV stand perfectly. I was concerned I wouldn't like another piece of equipment on my TV stand, but I've been happy with the way it looks, so my concerns went away.
