Introduction
Thank you for choosing the BX8 Studiophile Series bi-amplified powered studio
reference monitor speakers. M-Audio is well known for digital audio interface
technology, digital converters, audio pre amps and mixers. Now, after long
research and development, the Studiophile BX8 is born to change the concept
of studio reference monitoring.
The BX8 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 BX8 monitor
is self-powered, directly accepting a line level signal from a variety of sources.
The Studiophile BX8 is designed to overcome all the limitations of conventional
studio reference monitors within the digital audio environment. This system
delivers a wide range of 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.
For pro engineers at commercial studios to home studio owners, the Studiophile
BX8 sets a new affordable standard in studio monitoring.

• Actual test data of the BX8 you purchased
Studiophile BX8 Features
1. Woofer
The woofer unit is 8 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 signal accurately and
to deliver even minimal input precisely while minimizing distortion.

2. Tweeter
By employing a specially developed 1" 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 30 Hz.
4. EQ and Acoustic Space Controls
Back panel controls on the BX8’s 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 BX8s, while the “Acoustic Space”
settings account for a variety of speaker placements.
5. Enclosure
The enclosure has an important role just as the other components.The BX8’s
enclosure is designed to endure impact from inside under extreme conditions.
It employs special high-density MDF and unique interior reinforcement to
provide more stable performance.
6. Network & Power Amplifiers
The network & power amplifiers for the BX8 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 ultra crisp, powerful sound quality, there are two separate
power amplifiers inside the BX8 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 65W, and 65W is also delivered to the tweeter.
