Driving the low-end and midrange, BX5-D3’s 5-inch military-grade Kevlar woofers are rigid and lightweight, delivering outstanding transient response whist negating unwanted 'cone breakup'. BX5-D3’s tweeter is mounted in a custom waveguide for reliably accurate dispersion that eliminates unwanted high-frequency 'scatter,' whilst ensuring a wide and stable soundstage. Precision engineered to the exact length and diameter for deep, defined bass response with maximum bass extension and resolution. Two Class A/B internal amplifiers power the woofer and tweeter separately - each optimized for the specific frequency range it handles so you can play louder with less audible distortion. Fine-tune low-end response to perfectly fit your mixing environment.

Review: PROBABLY THE BEST VALUE STUDIO MONITOR (AND MULTIMEDIA SPEAKER :) - I bought the BX5 D3 (5 inches driver) first and was quite amazed by the sound output and bass. After that I wanted to give a try to the big brother, the BX8. First of all, they are really BIG. They have a simple design, but look gorgeous and “muscular”. The build quality, packaging is very good. As a professional gear, they only include power leads, so keep that in mind when shopping. After having the BX5, I was expecting even more bass, but interestingly that’s not the case here. The BX8s sounds more detailed and open. I found the BX5 quite bass heavy for a studio speaker, but the BX8 is different. It has more clarity in the mids and voices. Highs are also more articulated, but never get too harsh. (like almost all the other studio monitors) I love how these speaker sound, but to my ears they don’t sound like “studio monitors”. They are not harsh or fatiguing and have sweeet low end. I had the new Rokit G4s (7 inches), Yamaha HS8. These speakers can be good work tools, but for general listening I can not stand them… The Rokit was too flat and lifeless, no matter what fancy EQ setting I used. The HS8s are amazing - everyone knows that -, but they have just too much highs (even with high cut filter), and after a while you will find them fatiguing and too much. I also have Presonous speakers and they have more details, but the same problem persist: long or loud listening sessions lead to ear fatigue or headache. The M-Audio BX8 D3 is a great speaker that does everything right with a very fun and easy-to-listen sound signature. They can work in a studio environment, but also great in a living room for TV or general music listening, gaming etc. All music journals sound amazing on it. There is detail, excellent bass :), great voice reproduction and power. For this price you can not go wrong with them. I highly recommend the 8 inches model. Just make sure if you have the space and some proper speaker stands. :)
Review: Amazing speakers for the cost - I purchased a pair of BX8s, and to my surprise, they really are amazing. I've heard a lot of speakers and for the price, I can't imagine anything being better. They easily beat out passive commercial speakers at the same cost which is what surprised me most. I didn't expect this kind of value. I am using them as my PC speakers, so listening distance is around 1m and they work excellent for this. I haven't heard the BX5s, but I would happily suggest going straight for the BX8s if you have the space as they can go that extra bit deeper and they do so very effortlessly. They have great separation and never get muddled, I assume this is part of the benefit of having an 8" driver with so much headroom. Pros: - Excellent value for money - Great instrument separation - Low distortion - Loads of headroom for cranking the volume when you want to - Extended, tight bass - Nice frequency response for me. They sound reasonably flat, never harsh or too bassy. Cons: - Small hiss from tweeters (basically inaudible if at a suitable listening distance). This is not much of an issue at all but I thought I would list it for those wondering. I wouldn't let this put you off these amazing speakers. - Volume control is independent on each unit. This is something normal for studio monitors, I just have the sound set to a quarter on both and I control the rest through windows. If you have an audio interface or DAC with volume control this should do the trick. - No standby or auto standby modes. This is the biggest issue for me as I am quite eco friendly. It is a bit of a hassle to turn the speakers on and off by the back switch every time I use them, however it's a compromise I'm happy to make for the quality. I will probably get an extension lead just for the two speakers, then I can easily switch them on and off without affecting any of my other devices.
