The M-Audio BX5BT is a pair of powered 5-inch desktop studio monitors, listed at £155.00 and rated 4.5 out of 5 from 65 ratings. It comes in at number 9 in this guide, and the reason it is worth a second look is not a headline figure but the unit count. This listing is the pair: £155.00 buys both speakers. Elsewhere in this guide the same range's single BX5 monitor is listed at £92.00, which is £184.00 for two — so the pair listing is the cheaper way to buy the same arrangement of drivers.

The spec table then argues with the copy beside it. Frequency Response is recorded as "20000 KHz", which would be 20 MHz; the rest of the page is describing a speaker that reaches 20 kHz, the ordinary figure for a monitor this size. The same table also lists a "Subwoofer Speaker Diameter" of 5 inches, although the BX5BT has no separate subwoofer — the 5-inch driver is the Kevlar woofer named in the bullets, not a sub. Both of those come from the Amazon listing exactly as written. We have not tested these speakers ourselves; everything on this page is taken from the advert.

## Questions people ask

**Is the £155.00 for one speaker or two?**

Two. The title describes the M-Audio BX5BT as a "Desktop Studio Monitors Pair", so the £155.00 covers both speakers.

**What does the frequency response figure mean?**

The spec table says 20000 KHz, which is 20 MHz. The copy on the same M-Audio listing describes audio up to 20 kHz, the usual figure for a monitor this size. We quote the box as it is written rather than correcting it.

**How much power do the M-Audio BX5BTs have?**

The listing states 240W of bi-amplified power, delivered through a 5-inch Kevlar woofer and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter with waveguide.

**Can I change how they sound?**

Yes. The M-Audio listing describes three reference modes on the front panel — FLAT, HYPE and CUSTOM — plus the M-Audio Studio Control App for a 5-band EQ and saved presets.

**How do I connect them?**

The BX5BTs are powered from the mains and take TRS and Bluetooth 5.0. Bluetooth range is listed at 100 feet, given in the metric field as 30.48 metres.
