M-AUDIO BX3 3.5" Wired Studio Monitors Pair

What can I say, paired with a scarlet audio interface these baby's sound great! 👍🏼

Audio quality is good and the produce an impressive amount of volume for their size

These are excellent for the price!These function perfect for small recording setups or just using for pc/laptop speakers.I use them with my laptop for music production and they work great.Volume is easy adjustable and clear at all levels.Easy setup instructions and have two different input output set ups.Totally recommend grabbing these if you are in the market for a great pc/laptop speakers.

They sounds great but one extremely annoying function that almost ruins them is that they will auto shutoff when no audio is playing. Which normally is fine, but you'll have to play a stream of audio for ~15s for them to turn back on which gets really annoying to do every 5 minutes. They'll even cut off while audio through them if it is not loud enough so software like SoundKeeper won't work unless you have it set blaringly loud.

As I am more formally building out my video editing suite, I wanted something more than computer speakers but wasn’t completely sold on the need for going over the top right now. I have taken over a small bedroom in my house and knew that my larger speakers that were in my office space would not be appropriate for this sized room. The M-Audio speakers work well and are clear and capable for listening to audio near field and across the room. No issues. Easy to setup with the convenience of being able to switch which side the master speaker is on. I specifically was not looking for Bluetooth speakers as the radio delay is problematic when editing video or even weirder, the line input of several speakers that I had tried in the past had a delay with Bluetooth enabled speakers!? Still scratching my head on that. These are great for not breaking the bank and getting good quality sound without all the whizz bang extras.

The speakers are awesome. They are loud and clear. I love the multiple inputs, especially the BALANCED 1/4” TBS jacks and the low profile look. They are priced high but these are powerful studio speakers, far more powerful than others priced in this range. The chief complaint is with the cables. These should not have been provided with the unit. The 3.5 to 3.5 plug when connected to a computer with a metal chassis like my Dell Inspiron 3 in 1 will generate a loud buzz due to a ground fault somewhere. A better grounded cable will eliminate this but these are STUDIO speakers requiring a balanced connection. I attached a Bluetooth adapter to this using the RCA plugs and the cheap RCA cable provided and the sound was crystal clear and flawless only because BT avoids ground issues. These cheap RCA cables would produce equally bad buzz and ground issues if plugged directly into the computer jack. REMEMBER THESE ARE STUDIO MONITORS not traditional desktop speakers. You SHOULD BE USING only quality 1/4 inch TBS to 1/4 inch TBS cables running this to an audio interface like the M-Audio M-Track Duo or Solo. The reason for this is to establish a “BALANCED” vs the “UNBALANCED” connection. Anyone complaining of hum or buzz should connect using ONLY the balanced method since balanced connections eliminate hum and interference by nature of the balanced architecture. If you plan to use a DAW for professional audio use, these speakers are designed for this purpose because of the “balanced” option not available with simple desktop speakers. So ditch the 3.5 to 3,5 cable, use the RCA plug only with a BT adaptor and install a 1/4” TBS cable to an audio interface for impeccable sound quality.

Non bluetooth version. So these do sound good, but they havn't been great. They have an auto sleep mode that is supposed to turn off when any audio plays... but i've found that doesnt work very well. You can start playing audio and it may never turn on. Manually power cycling the speakers sometimes gets it. I Use the balanced TRS ports on the back so it's pretty annoying they function like this. The second issue is the super thin jumper cable between both speakers doesn't work well either. It may drop audio going to the second unit, and if you wiggle the cable at all you can hear it losing the connection. There is not an alternative connector. Sometimes the speaker will just lose the second unit. I'd return it if I hadn't missed the window. There is no way to keep sleep mode off. Some people suggested just always playing audio at a tone you cant hear but that feels very impractical and not a real solution.

OK, keep your expectations in check here. These are inexpensive nearfield monitors, and I wouldn't recommend them for a real project studio or above (as in if you're recording a band, doing mastering, etc.). But for my "Studio C" - used for product development, engineering, testing, and etc., they are just fine, perhaps for the simple reason that I didn't have space for larger monitors in this location. Nonetheless, sound quality is very good, as is imaging, and they actually had too much bass in the center EQ position (on the back) - having to reduce the bass on such tiny woofers was surprising. I also boosted the treble a little, which suits my ears. Anyway, nice monitors for the price. If you need larger nearfield monitors, I would consider the next models up in this line. For "real" monitors, though, you're looking at many times the price, and such may be required (I use JBLs, Yamahas, and Tannoys for this case - again a lot more bucks involved). But for the price of a decent PC-class speaker set, you could do much worse than the BX4s. I know, I've tried. BTW - nicely packaged! Double boxed, great packing, and the required cables are included.

No Problems with the speaker or sound quality, dont expect multimedia speakers like bass and highs. The sound is mostly Flat, i have to tweek the setting to my liking to find the sweet spot in response. Recommended for Voice based audio consumption. If you have space go for a bigger speaker 4.5 -5 inch for immersive experience, or go for presonus eris 3.5 no option to return without faults so was not able to change. NOTE: no Software is included so beware.

Están bien para su precio, está claro que si quieres más potencia o calidad también hay que subir de precio, para mi uso personal está bien y aunque son pequeños llegan a sonar fuerte y con calidad, en frecuencias medias/altas algo mejorable con respecto a las bajas para gusto propio, pero si no es para un uso profesional tampoco es tan relevante, Desde que los compré no me han fallado.

If you're beginning out making music or if you're getting into audio production but you have only been using standard speakers, Not studio monitors, Don't buy into the hype that you need to get extremely expensive studio monitors. These work fantastically! I can finally hear what I'm supposed to be hearing in my audio mixes and can get rid of unwanted noises or amplify noises I want more of. All the stuff I couldn't hear on my sound bar or bluetooth speakers, I can hear on this. And now that I've mixed some of my songs on these, when I listen on just my cell phone speaker to the songs themselves it sounds sooo much better already! You don't need to go for the extremely expensive studio monitors if you want to get into audio mixing for film or music. Just grab a pair of these to start and enjoy yourself my friend. You deserve it.

Sound is realy good and you can put the high or bass volume ad the back! For me this is perfect! I can even put this on my dj gear👍🏻

Work perfectly on my son dj setup with RCA cables
