M-Audio M3-8

Precise sound and superior stereo imaging that only a 3-way monitor can provide. Thanks to their efficient design, the M3-8 Studio Reference Monitors offer a stunning 3-way sound while taking up only the space of a 2-way system. An impressive monitor that can cope with even the most critical listening situations.

The efficient design of the M3-8 allows a coaxial arrangement of the tweeters and midrange drivers. Time-correct radiation from the same acoustic centre enables fatigue-free hearing. Thanks to 8 "LF drivers and 5" midrange drivers made of woven Kevlar, the M3-8 has a long lifetime. Due to its strength and temperature resistance, Kevlar is a particularly suitable material for speaker diaphragms. The 1" silk tweeter has integrated wave guides to reproduce high frequencies in detail. Behind the stylish wooden front, internal bracing provides the best possible sound reproduction, supported by a special bass reflex port on the back.
