About This Listing

If you’ve heard about these speakers then you know what’s up. These are 100% fully functional, sound amazing - legit the best speakers being made right now. Bought brand new back at Ex Mach’s launch in 2020 - original owner. They have since been upgraded to their newer DSP cards and new midrange driver/tweeter. I can’t say enough about how good these speakers are and how easy mixing is on them. I’m only offloading because these were my home studio pair and I’ve been finding myself in my commercial space lately and I use the same exact monitors there. I just don’t feel right hanging on to something this good that isn’t used as often as they should. One listen and you’ll understand why these are the best. The frequency separation is so distinct it’s practically visual. Mix with more confidence and finally be able to trust your mix choices. Local pick up only due to the size of these but if you are interested in shipping message me and we’ll see if we can set something up. A few notes about these speakers there are a few blemishes on the side of one - it’s strictly a cosmetic thing the speakers undergo a diagnostic test with a frequency read out once a month when I cal my room. Secondly, these particular speakers are very sensitive to sub par or dirty energy - so good power conditioners are a must otherwise you may hear a slight buzz. Keep that in mind. In a previous room there was a buzz but it’s so faint you’d have to walk up to the speaker to hear it and does not affect the speakers’ performance.

Designed, built, and calibrated by a dedicated team of passionate audio enthusiasts in Brooklyn, NY, Ex Machina Soundworks studio monitors aspire to transcend the status quo and deliver an incredibly accurate critical listening experience that fosters a deeper connection between the music and the music makers. Ex Machina Soundworks pushes the boundaries of speaker technology, leveraging modern advancements in circuit design, materials development, and DSP. Their entire range of monitors is powered by high-efficiency Hypex Ncore amplifiers and feature a cutting-edge coaxial design for the mid- and high-frequency drivers. They also come equipped with powerful yet compact subwoofers that are both accurate and loud enough to serve as “client killers” when it comes time to impress. The Ex Machina Soundworks Quasar MKII is outfitted with two 8-inch low-frequency drivers, a 6.5-inch mid-frequency driver, and a 1-inch high-frequency driver. Plus, each Quasar MKII undergoes Ex Machina Soundworks’ proprietary calibration process to ensure perfect parity between speakers in a set.
