m-audio bx5 d2 reviews?

[mrsound]

Listen to them, and if they are ok, buy them!

I shave spent a lot of weeks reading and stuff, but take a look at your budget, and get something that seems oke for you. (best tip i found). I have bought Samson Resolv a5's they're fine! In that budget it doesn't matter alot. Better fix your acoustic treatment.

i cant listen to them in person :( its an internet deal.. the local guitar center (the only instrument shop here) only stocks 3 synths (korg microstation, juno di, jupiter) and 2 diff. krk rokit models. i live in a country/metal area.

I bought some many years ago and sent them back immediately.

The best small, reasonably low budget monitors I've heard are Tannoy Reveal 601A's. I've also heard very good things about JBL LSR2325Ps as well, although I've not listened them personally.

were they the bx5a or bx5 d2 that you sent back? cuz from what ive read the d2s have been on the market for a year and a half

m-audio are not renown for making great monitors. monitors are really not something you want to skimp on; if you don't have the money to invest in something decent (including room treatment), it can make more sense to just invest in good headphones.

makes sense.. guess ill just get a pair of krk rokits. what are some good basic room treatment?

[tehlord]

I had some rokits as well. They were also rubbish.

I have no idea what model the BX5s were, I literally had them for 20 minutes before I realised what a horrible mistake i'd made.

Get some samsons or tannoys i've heard de 5-something wich seems also good to me. But research room treatment. Way more impact on your mixing.

[skarekroh]

i think ill get some tammoys.. they seem to be what EVERYONE and their mommas reccomend

[tehlord]

I have some Tannoy 601A's here at the moment and they are excellent for the money.

ive found that the samson mediaone 30watt monitors are not only super affordable ($99 a pair) but theyd be perfect for my apartment. they also look great. im gonna keep looking tho.. if i can get a pair of tannoys 20watt or higher for $140 or less id go with them.
