Introduction
Thank you for choosing the BX5 Studiophile Series bi-amplified studio nearfield
monitor speakers. M-Audio is well known for digital audio interface technology,
digital converters, audio preamps and mixers. Now, after extensive research and
development, the Studiophile BX5 is born to change the concept of studio
reference monitoring.
The BX5 was designed and tested by veteran audio engineers to meet your needs
in a studio monitoring environment. It is focused on the functional goal of
delivering pure,original sound without any additional coloration.The BX5 monitor
is self-powered, directly accepting a line level signal from a variety of sources.
The Studiophile BX5 is designed to overcome all the limitations of conventional
studio reference monitors within the digital audio environment. This system
delivers a wide range frequency response by employing two extraordinary
drivers and unique crossover technology licensed by M-Audio. It boasts a stable
and balanced low-mid frequency response along with a defined mid- and high-
frequency response as well. Both drivers are magnetically shielded for desktop
music production.
From pro engineers at commercial studios to home studio owners, the
Studiophile BX5 sets a new affordable standard in studio monitoring.
What’s in the Box?
Your Studiophile BX5 box contains:
•Two BX5 speakers
•Two detachable AC power cords
• This manual
• Actual test results of the BX5 you purchased
Studiophile BX5 Features
1. Woofer
The woofer unit is 5 inches in diameter with a magnetically shielded
mineral-filled polypropylene cone, high-temperature voice coil and damped
rubber surround. It is designed to deliver balanced mid- and low- frequency
response. Polypropylene is used to react against the input signals accurately and
to deliver even minimal input precisely while minimizing distortion.

2. Tweeter
By employing a specially developed 1-inch silk dome with magnetic shielding, the
tweeter can deliver distortion-free original sound and offer extremely natural
response. It minimizes reaction time by using fabric silk for excellent delivery,
and also minimizes resonance by adapting a unique internal damping technology.
3. Sub-Frequency Port
The hole in the rear panel is called a Sub-Frequency Port and is designed to
discharge extreme low frequencies under 60 Hz.
4. EQ and Acoustic Space Controls
Back panel controls on the BX5s give you compensation for room EQs as well
as compensation for the positioning of the speakers within your room. High
frequency cuts, mid-range boost, and low frequency cutoffs offer a great deal of
control over the sound and presence of the BX5s, while the “Acoustic Space”
settings account for a variety of speaker placements.
5. Enclosure
Just as other components do, the BX5’s enclosure has an important role. In
order to provide more stable performance, the BX5’s enclosure employs a
special high-density MDF and unique interior reinforcement designed to absorb
vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions.
6. Network & Power Amplifiers
The active crossover networks & power amplifiers for the BX5 are specially
designed for this woofer and tweeter.The network properly distributes low,mid,
and high frequencies to the components in order to reduce distortion and loss
of sound, thus achieving a naturally balanced sound.
In order to generate powerful, ultra-crisp sound, there are two separate power
amplifiers inside the BX5 to drive the woofer and tweeter separately in a high-
end bi-amp structure. The power delivered to the woofer driver at a rated
distortion is 38W, and 38W is also delivered to the tweeter.
