Introduction
The BX5 D2 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 D2 monitor is self-powered, directly accepting
a line-level signal from a variety of sources.
The Studiophile BX5 D2 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.
For pro engineers at commercial studios to home studio owners, the Studiophile BX5 D2 sets a
new affordable standard in studio monitoring.

Features
Woofer: The woofer unit is 5 inches (127 mm) in diameter with a magnetically shielded Kevlar
cone, high-temperature voice coil and damped rubber surround. It is designed to deliver
balanced mid and low-frequency response. M-Audio's new BX5 D2 employs Kevlar for low-
frequency driver construction. The same material used in bullet-proof 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 BX5 D2. Needless to say, Kevlar represents a significant
improvement over the polypropylene and paper used in most monitors at this price.
Tweeter: By employing a specially developed 1-inch (25 mm) silk dome with magnetic
shielding, the tweeter can deliver distortion-free original sound and offer an extremely natural
response. Its design minimizes reaction time by using a specially shaped silk dome for
excellent delivery, and also minimizes resonance by adapting a unique internal damping
technology.
Sub-Frequency Port: The air vent hole in the rear panel is called a Sub-Frequency Vent Port
and is designed to allow the discharge of extremely low frequencies occurring below 60Hz.
Enclosure: Like the other components, the BX5 D2's enclosure has an important role in
shaping the overall sonic response. In order to provide more stable performance, the BX5 D2's
enclosure employs a special high acoustic efficiency MDF and unique interior reinforcement
designed to absorb vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions. The custom
design on the front panel will aid in diffraction and will benefit stereo imaging.
