Sterling Audio is shipping its new MX Black Series active studio monitor speakers. The MX Black Series powered monitors are bi-amplified and built for optimal frequency dispersion, delivering clear, articulate sound within a wide “sweet spot.” The new MX Black Series speakers offer outstanding features and performance and sport a matte black finish.
MX Black Series monitors feature acoustically engineered, multi-fiber, low-frequency cone drivers that offer excellent damping to minimize sonic artifacts and unnatural resonance. Their silk-dome tweeters are powered by neodymium magnets for a smooth and natural frequency response. A rear-panel acoustic port reduces low-frequency turbulence and distortion. The series includes three models: the MX8 Black (shown at right), which features an 8-inch low-frequency driver and 1-inch tweeter; the MX5 Black, with a 5-inch woofer and 1-inch tweeter; and the MX3 Black (sold in pairs, shown above), with 3-inch woofers and ¾-inch tweeters.
All MX Black Series models feature variable high-pass (+2, 0, or -2 dB) and low-pass (-3, 0, or +3 dB) filters that enable you to custom tune your monitors to suit your listening preferences and recording environment. The MX8 and MX5 provide balanced XLR, balanced ¼-inch TRS, and unbalanced RCA inputs; the MX3 offers unbalanced RCA inputs. All models employ studio-grade internal components and protective circuitry.
