Speakers: Powered Near-Field Monitors with XLR connectors
If you have limited space or budget, the sound of the SP-5B near-field monitors will amaze you. You will get engineering quality: two-way bi-amped power, magnetic shielding, swivel-mounted tweeter, high-quality crossover network electronics and Sub-Frequency Port. The 5-inch mineral-filled polypropylene woofer and 3/4-inch silk tweeter accommodate a smaller cabinet design that allows placement just about anywhere-all with a frequency response of 48Hz to 22kHz. Backed by 75 watts of power, these babies scream. Includes two 10-foot XLR male to female cables to simply hookup for professional connections.

Studiophile BX8a 8in Studio Reference Monitors

Over the years, Studiophile reference monitors have earned a great reputation with recording professionals around the world. The BX8a updates M-Audio's acclaimed BX8 near-fields.

Topping the improvements list are the 8" curved Kevlar low-frequency drivers-a technology usually reserved for monitors bearing a higher price tag. Of course, they’re coupled with the time-proven high-temperature voice coils and damped rubber surrounds for durability and fidelity. Magnetically shielded 1" natural silk domes give the BX8s a high-end that’s both clear and easy on the ears. Custom-tuned crossovers distribute 130 Watts of bi-amplified power for optimal frequency handling by each driver. Hear for yourself why Studiophiles have become "standard issue" reference monitors.

Main Features:

  • Two-way magnetically shielded studio reference monitors
  • 130 Watts of bi-amped power
  • 8" Kevlar low-frequency drivers
  • 1" natural silk high-frequency drivers
  • XLR balanced and 1/4" balanced/unbalanced inputs

Kevlar LF drivers
To insure a lifetime of service, M-Audio constructed the BX8a's 8" low-frequency driver from woven Kevlar-the same material bulletproof vests are made from. (Kevlar is typically reserved for more expensive monitors.) Their engineers also created a curved conical design that improves room dispersion. High-damping rubber surrounds insure that the cone reaches exactly its optimal excursion for accurate reproduction. And the high-temperature voice coils guarantee that your monitors will deliver full performance no matter how many hours you use them.

Silk-dome HF drivers with FerroFlowTM
The high-frequency domes are made from natural silk to counter the ringing that is inherent in the stiffer metallic materials common to other monitors. M-Audio's FerroFlowTM technology uses ferrofluid liquid cooling to dissipate heat for maximum efficiency and extended usage.

Bi-amped efficiency
Active (powered) monitors allow designers to optimize amplification for other components such as speakers and cabinets. And by using two separate power amps and a finely tuned crossover, the BX8a's bi-amped design insures that both the high- and low-frequency drivers are each sent only the frequencies they reproduce most efficiently.

Rear-ported cabinet design
The BX8a'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 eliminates the turbulence and resulting distortion caused when front ports project low frequency waves in the same path as the speakers' direct signal.

What Customers are Saying About Safe Harbor
Being a Lightwave 3D user, I had been keeping my eye on a Safe Harbor machine for quite some time because of their great performance... It has quickly become my No.1 tool and will probably continue to be so for quite some time. I now actually look forward to the rendering step! Thanks so much to all you guys at Safe Harbor for putting together such a great machine! - Nino
