3. About CX Studio Monitors
Typical mass-market loudspeakers sound pleasing because their designs incorporate a
deliberately uneven, non-linear frequency response that artificially enhances certain bass
and treble frequencies. While it may be quite enjoyable to hear finished albums on such
speakers, actually mixing on this type of monitor is not recommended since such speakers
tend to “smooth over” problem areas and do not reveal everything that should be fixed
during a mix.
Unlike typical mass-market speakers, M-Audio’s CX line of bi-amplified studio monitors
have been designed to provide accurate, highly detailed, reliable playback that is free of
distortion or coloration. This is done by having a tightly integrated system in which the CX
drivers, internal electronics (amplifiers, crossover, etc.), and enclosure all work together
to provide accurate bass, smooth high-frequency transient response, and a highly linear
frequency response through the entire audible range of the speaker. This allows you to
hear everything in your recorded tracks—the good and the bad things—so that you can spot
and fix problems and ultimately create great mixes that “translate” well to other speakers
and audio playback systems.
