The BX5 D3 combines a 5-inch Kevlar-cone woofer with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter with a computer-optimized waveguide, in a bi-amplified 100W design with extended frequency response from 52Hz to 35kHz. The Acoustic Space Control feature adjusts bass output based on where you place the monitor in the room, and optimized rear ports minimize air turbulence and acoustic distortion.

With 1,432 reviews and a 4.5/5 average, it's the most-reviewed monitor in this entire catalog, by a wide margin. At €109.50, with a 2-year factory warranty, it's also among the cheapest, the combination of low price and massive review backing makes it the default choice for anyone starting to build a home listening space.
