    I've narrowed down a list of monitors. Can anybody give me some input?

    So. This is what I am looking for:   A PAIR of monitor speakers for under 225. I want to stay away from the 250 range, and under 200 would be ideal, but I do not want to skimp out on my music.   I use FL studio and make music here and there. I love rock more than any genre. Rise against...

    Will M-Audio BX5 D2 (or any, for that matter) speakers benefit from a DAC?

    So, I'd like to use these speakers with my computer. I've been told that a DAC doesn't really make a difference when it comes to speakers, and I was wondering if this were true? My main reason for getting a DAC, is that the monitors will be placed quite far back on the desk and I'd like...

    Connecting BX5 D2 and a subwoofer to my Xonar DG

    Assume this is how the panels of the subwoofer, speakers, and sound card look like:   Can someone draw out a diagram of how to connect these, and what kind of wires are required? I do not plan on using A/V receivers or amps. Assume that the subwoofer I am using is the one in the photo...

    M-Audio BX5 D2 + Fiio D3 or NuForce Icon or onboard = No sound. What's going on??

    Hey guys (and gals),   First time post on Head-Fi and I have a puzzling situation. I have a Fiio D3 DAC that is going from optical TOSLINK to RCA and I run the RCA to my primary M-Audio CX5's and they are very loud in this setup.  I don't have to have any volume switch on the PC or monitor...

    BX5 D2s VS JBL LSR2325Ps

    Looking to buy some nice speakers at a budget prices. I'm looking at the BX5 D2s for $210 (or BX5a) or a set of JBL LSR2325Ps used from craigslist for $200 (one of the speakers has a dented dust cap, but from my understanding this has no effect on the sonic performance, and can be fixed)

    How do I connect the M-Audio BX5 D2 speakers?

    Hi. I just bought the BX5 D2's, but I can see that they haven't supplied any cables other than the power cordes. So how do I connect them to the a 3.5 headphone jack on my laptop? The manual isn't very "newbie friendly", talking about "balanced" and "unbalanced" connections, etc'. So which...

    So I bought the M-Audio BX5 D2's, and they are awfully good.

    So I bought the M-Audio BX5 D2's the other day and honestly before I heard them I planned on returning them because of their size. But after that 3.5 plug got into my jack - there's no way I'm doing that.   I have a few specific songs with which I test new audio gear so I can make fair...

    Sennheiser HD25-1 II vs M-audio BX5 D2 bass quantity/quality

    Hey guys, I have been using my Sennheiser HD 25-1 ii's for a while, but I recently decided to buy a set of speakers as well (M audio BX5 D2's). Reviews state that the BX5 has weak subbass, which is understandable given the size of the drivers, but will it have less bass presence/reach then the...

    Need speakers/sub for college parties

    Hey all,   Currently i'm using crappy, small, logitec 2.1 speakers in my townhouse for house parties. These are not doing the job in the slightest. I was using my sony receiver(80w) to power some small sony speakers and an onkyo 10" powered subwoofer. The subwoofer fried and the speakers had...

    Bowers and Wilkins MM-1 DAC/AMP

    Hey there,   Noticed how there is a lack of interest towards speakers, specifically computer speakers. Can anyone describe to me how these $500- B&W are? I know the sound is very good for a near-field speaker, but i'm more interested in the DAC function. It has an internal DAC/amp -- can it...

    Balanced 1/8th TRS to mono female 1/4th to dual male 1/4th question

    I have the BX5 D2's, and as the title states these are the connections I'm using. However, I've seen people using such connections as 1/8 Stereo (M) to Left and Right 1/4 (M). My question would be, is the current connection adequate for this monitors, or should I but those other cables? They...

    Best active or passive speakers for $300 (or $200 w/$100 Amp)

    Which speakers would sound better: the Audioengine A5's which are active speakers, or the passive Energy CB-5 w/this amplifier (or similar)?   I would consider other suggestions (however it wouldn't be very convenient as I'm already confused by all the options..), but they mustn't be...
