M Audio cx5

[AMcB]

I was looking for some new monitors. I saw the cx5s online, but in no store around me. I went to guitacenter, listened to what the had. Half the stuff there was blown or about to blow, and the guy I talked to didn't know anything. But I decided to buy the cx5s online without hearing them, I just got them in last night, and havnt really had a chance to hear them yet. But I was wondering if anyone has had a chance to see how they sound? The only other monitors I've had are maudio bx5s and a krk sub. I'll post tonight about how they sound, just wanted to get some feedback if possible, I couldn't find very much at all about them anywhere.

I finally had a chance to listen to them. They sound awesome. I was looking for more lower end (not sub, more fullness around 150-200ish) And they have that without being muddy, kinda like the mr8s I was thinking about were. Definitely a big improvement from my bx5s... But they have acoustic space controls which I actually had top set at -2db (i think a slope down at 200hz) and the mid boost on. But they sound awesome, exactly what I was looking for, more real than my bx5s, which sounded thin and kinda harsh compared to these. Very pleasantly surprised.
