The
Studiophile BX8a Deluxe monitors update the best-selling M-Audio
BX8a system with a variety of enhancements. The new waveguide
delivers a cleaner sound. Custom amplifier tuning enhances
the integration between the high and low frequencies, delivering
refined spectral balance and a smoother response. An elegant
new industrial design completes the package
Kevlar
low-frequency drivers
 To
insure a lifetime of service, we constructed the BX8a monitor’s
8” low-frequency driver from woven Kevlar. Kevlar’s
high mechanical and thermal resilience makes it ideal for
use in speaker cones. Our engineers also created a curved
conical design that improves room dispersion. High-damping
reliable rubber surrounds provide percussive musical bass,
and insure that the cone reaches its optimal excursion for
accurate reproduction. And our high-temperature voice coils
reduce power compression, guaranteeing that your monitors
will deliver full performance hour after hour.
Bi-amplified
efficiency
Active
monitors have a distinct advantage over unpowered monitors
because the built-in power amps are specially designed to
work with the drivers and crossovers in a tuned system. Bi-amplification
further refines the concept by dedicating separate power amps
to the highs and lows. Combined with a finely tuned crossover,
this design insures that both the high- and low-frequency
drivers are asked to deliver only the frequencies they are
most efficient at reproducing.
Silk-dome, waveguide-loaded, high-frequency drivers
 Our
high-frequency domes are made from natural silk to counter
the high Q ringing that is inherent in the poorly crafted
metallic materials often found in other monitors. In addition,
our new waveguides refine the high-frequency response. M-Audio’s
FerroFlow technology uses ferrofluid liquid cooling to dissipate
heat for maximum efficiency and extended usage
Rear-ported
cabinet design
The
Studiophile BX8a Deluxe monitor’s cabinet is integrally
designed with its other components for optimal performance—right
down to rounded corners for reduced edge diffraction and superior
imaging. Custom rear-port design audibly reduces the turbulence
and resulting distortion caused by poorly designed ports.
Magnetic
shielding
 Unchecked,
the electromagnetic waves emanating from your speakers can
wreak havoc with your computer’s video monitor or a nearby
TV. The BX8a Deluxe is magnetically shielded so that all of
your electronic equipment can coexist without interference
