M-Audio BX5a 70 Watt Active Studio Monitors Pair

198

I just bought these speakers 2 months ago, and I was really impressed with the sound quality. I never saw sound speakers like this before, with this quality. I only used it for 2 or 3 gigs in a small place and it worked just fantastic enhancing my keyboard performances. Now, unfortunately this partnership came to an end because I won another big pair of monitors and there is no space to keep all of them. So I decided to sell them.  They are still in the original box with everything in it and they look brand new . PLease contact me if you have any questions or want more pictures.

70-watt Bi-amplified Studio Reference Monitors
The small size of the M-Audio BX5a active monitors makes them ideal for use in desktop systems where there is little space available. Magnetic shielding is a welcome inclusion, making them excellent for use near computers and other signal generating equipment. The BX5a is the perfect solution for project and home studios, as their compact size and easy-to-manage price let them fit into anyone's space and budget. The BX5a monitors pack quite a punch!

M-Audio Studiophile BX5a at a Glance:

• Two-way studio reference monitors with 1" natural silk high-frequency drivers, and 70 watts of distributed power.
• 5" Kevlar low-frequency drivers.
• Magnetically shielded.
• Bi-amplified.

Two-way Active Monitors
The BX5a refines M-Audio's highly acclaimed BX5 near-field reference monitors, renowned for packing a lot of punch for their size. The new BX5a's 5" low-frequency driver cones are crafted from Kevlar, an extremely resilient material typically found in much more expensive monitors. Curved cone design coupled with high-temperature voice coils and damped rubber surrounds deliver incredible fidelity and durability. The 1" high-frequency drivers' magnetically shielded natural silk domes produce crisp top end while still being gentle on the ears. Integral cabinet and electronic engineering work together to deliver improved bass response. 70-watt bi-amped power and expertly tuned crossovers round out an incredible sounding pair of reference monitors with a footprint small enough to fit just about anywhere.

Kevlar Drivers
M-Audio's new BX5a employs Kevlar for low-frequency driver construction. The same material used in bulletproof vests, Kevlar's high resilience makes it ideal for use in speaker cones-although it is typically reserved for monitors with higher price tags than the BX5a. Needless to say, Kevlar represents a significant improvement over the polypropylene and paper used in most monitors for this price.

Magnetically Shielded for Desktop Use
Unchecked, the electromagnetic waves emanating from your speakers can wreak havoc with your computer's video monitor or a nearby TV. The BX5a is magnetically shielded so that all of your electronic equipment can coexist on your desktop without interference.

Bi-amplified Efficiency
Active monitors have a distinct advantage over unpowered monitors, in that the built-in power amps are designed specifically to work with the drivers and crossovers in a tuned system. Bi-amplification further refines the concept by dedicating separate power amps to the highs and lows. Combined with a finely tuned crossover, the BX5a's design insures that both the high- and low-frequency drivers are asked to deliver only the frequencies they are more efficient at reproducing.
