M-audio monitors - difference BX-5 and SP-5B??

Post by Dag Wolf »

Hi guys.

Anyone know the difference between these two speakers?
I saw that the SP-5B has a 3/4 inch tweeter and BX-5 has 1 inch.

SP-5B are listed at Musicansfriend for only $199.99. BX-5 are not sold by M.Friend but seems to go at around $250 on ebay.

The size of the cabinets are about the same.

So I guess my question will be - are the BX-5 a newer upgraded and a better version?

Thanks in advance.
