What the heck is a MK II AV40?, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: M-Audio Studiophile AV40 Powered Monitor Speakers (Latest Version) (Electronics) This should be a good help to those with questions.Having spent a full week researching desktop speakers to replace my old 5.1 Altec Lansing 2001 solution I decided upon the M-Audio Studiophile AV40s. The competition was a variety of Bose speakers promoted in a few trips to the local Best Buy store. I in fact bought one of the first Bose cube speaker systems in the early 80's, I considered strongly the Audioengine A2 offering. I had set a $200 soft target. The reviews for the AV40 exceeded that for other systems I considered. I have a few different systems in the house from a relatively recent home theater to a vintage stereo set up. The majority of my music has been converted to the FLAC format and I wanted a clear true sound that imaged well. This is a lot to expect for $200 speakers. I also hope to become a Spotify user but am yet to receive an invite. I use MOG and Napster also. As I was ready to check out for the $149 AV40's what should appear on my screen but the...

I don't really have any complaints. For the sake of informing potential buyers, I'll say: With a 'normal' at home computer set-up, these are very large compared to 'normal' computer speakers, so keep that in mind. It's the trade off for superior sound, and not needing a sub-woofer, or a large box shaped power adapter plug spanning 2-3 outlets. These have a basic electrical plug (like a table lamp). I have these speakers pointing straight ahead, with the tops of them around heart level, and they sound fine. However, it is recommended by M-Audio that you have them at ear level, and angled to make an equilateral triangle with your head. I would say it's good advice, if you can pull that off. The main speaker with the connections...

Living in apartments, I love high quality sound, but don't want the letter from the office concerning sound disturbances. Got home from work, set them up, and I was a little iffy at first. Since these are flat-tuned, depending on what media player you use, you'll have to mess around with the EQ settings. Once it was dialed in, the impression was more positive. After a couple days, when they got more warmed in, I was very impressed. I threw every genre in my library at them and they played extremely well. You're not going to get that "heart-pounding" low end frequency out of them, but you'll get a good range from the sound spectrum that most audiophiles yearn for. Un-boxing these things was nearly ceremonial, first thought: good feel, good weight, solid construction and a nice variety of connection options. They included a manual with impressive specs and a campy comic book style book instructing the consumer on how to properly place... Read more |
