The only M-Audio speakers that sound close to the A5’s from my side-by-side listening experiences are the BX5’s, which are around the same price as the Audioengine 5’s but aren’t really in the same category (studio monitor vs. powered bookshelf). The main inconvenience with the M-Audio speakers is that the power amps are in each speaker so in my living room setup I had to plug each speaker into the wall and then split the audio cable between the left and right speaker. But I do work for Audioengine, so what do I know….

I’ve never used the M-Audio product but I stand behind my review. These speakers get a huge sound out of a shelftop box.

M-Audio’s speakers are just as good if not better. And they cost less!
