M-Audio BX8a Deluxe monitors

Folks here is a set of M-Audio BX8a Deluxe monitors in excellent condition. The listing is for the set of speakers plus the pictured cables only. Pics of the actual speakers. These are a bear to ship so I would prefer to have them picked up from my shop, however, I am happy to ship them too.

The BX8a Deluxe monitors are an update to M-Audio's acclaimed BX8a nearfields - part of the wildly popular Studiophile series. Equipped with new waveguides, and enhanced driver integration, the Bx8a Deluxe monitors now feature an extended low-frequency response, and an overall more well-rounded, detailed sound. Their custom-tuned crossovers distribute 130 watts of bi-amplified power for optimal frequency handling. If you have a desktop system, and are looking to upgrade your smaller monitors - or add another set of more powerful nearfields to your arsenal - these BX8a Deluxe monitors are an excellent pick!

M-Audio Studiophile BX8a Deluxe at a Glance:

• Improved low-frequency response
• 8" Kevlar low-frequency drivers
• Bi-amplified, integrated cabinet design
• Rear-ported cabinet design

Meet the BX8a Deluxe
M-Audio's Studiophile reference monitors have a great reputation with studio engineers around the world. The BX8a Deluxe updates the critically acclaimed BX8a nearfields with an extended low-frequency response that gives them an overall more detailed, refined sound. Of course, this design is coupled with M-Audio's time-proven high-temperature voice coils and damped rubber surrounds for durability and fidelity. Magnetically shielded 1" natural silk domes contribute to produce 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.

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

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 - 70 watts for lows and 60 watts for highs - and a finely tuned crossover, the BX8a Deluxe'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 Deluxe'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.
