Alesis Reference Monitors!
The new M1 Active 520 reference monitor continues the Alesis tradition of building premium studio monitors at a great price. The M1 Active 520 offers incredible definition and flat frequency response with the help of high-precision drivers and a carefully designed crossover. The rear-port provides deep bass-extension and high SPL output, and the four rear-mounted EQ switches allow the user to tailor the speaker to the studio environment. The M1 Active 520's 1" thick front baffle minimizes speaker resonance and the visually stunning acoustic waveguide evenly disperses high-frequency sound across your control room. The M1Active 520 has Alesis's new Bass Density control, which allows you to tailor these monitors to any kind of control room setting regardless of room placement.

Finally, the distinctive top-mounted power/clip indicator lets you know if the speaker is clipping.

Alesis M1 Active 520 Features:
  • 2-way, 75-watt (50W woofer, 25W tweeter) active near-field reference monitors
  • 5" low frequency woofer for clear bass and midrange
  • 1" silk dome tweeter for clear highs without ear-fatiguing harshness
  • High-precision drivers offer lower distortion and smoother frequency response
  • Acoustical waveguide for superior imaging with minimal diffraction
  • 1" thick front baffle virtually eliminates speaker resonance
  • Magnetically shielded for close placement to video monitors in computer based music production studios
  • 1/4" TRS connector with volume control
  • Low Frequency Density Switch for acoustic space adjustment of the monitors
  • Rear port design provides deep bass extension and increased SPL
  • Hi, Mid, and Low Frequency EQ switches to accommodate user preference and sub-woofers
  • Top mounted, integrated Power Switch/Clip Light Bar

  "These are my main small monitor for my studio and my portable rig. Present, balanced, and surprisingly even across the spectrum. They will even fit in a 4-unit rack bag for portable recording."
