A new range of M-Audio monitoring merchandise might mean music to your ears as the new Studiophile Q40 headphones and the BXa Deluxe range of studio monitors showed at Winter NAMM 2008. M-Audio's new monitors come in 5" and 8" versions, and they stake claim to sounding not only better than before, but also better than anything in its price range. The new Studiophile Q40 closed back, circumaural headphones have 40 mm drivers that deliver supreme low end. Keep in mind, they're meant for studio use. You wouldn't want to wear them, let's say, walking behind buses. Otherwise, you might get flattened or something.
I just had a lil time to make this video and here it is. No sweeps, just a frequency test to show the excursion of the LF driver. I'm using an iphone 3g with SigScope Pro. Check the app out, it's a really good tool.
Playing an improvisation in the C# major scale to test the richness of the M-Audio CX5 studio monitors. The Korg M3 Studio Grand Piano sound. Notice the tone of the C#0-1 octave at 1:09. Recorded using the Zoom Q3.
