With the aktiv 05 5" 60W 2-Way Active Studio Reference Monitor, you can experience professional-grade audio quality right in your own space. This product is the latest addition to our renowned nEar05 series, offering advanced near field monitoring capabilities that set new standards for entry-level speakers.
The aktiv 05 monitor is engineered with a larger silk dome tweeter, delivering an ultra-flat low frequency response that outperforms most comparable products. Its high-quality 5" Kevlar driver ensures unparalleled punch in the low-mid frequency range, a significant enhancement over the conventional paper and polypropylene drivers.
As the pioneer in utilizing Kevlar for studio monitors in this price range, ESI has set a trend that others have followed. However, the superior sound quality of the aktiv 05 is not just about the material. It's the result of meticulous tuning of all components by our expert engineers in Germany, coupled with a completely new crossover design.
The aktiv 05 monitor can optionally be expanded with a subwoofer like our aktiv 10s for those seeking a more immersive sound experience. If you're seeking high-end audio performance without breaking the bank, the aktiv 05 is an excellent alternative to our premium uniK 05+ reference monitor. This product embodies the ESI studio monitor legacy, offering top-tier sound quality at an accessible price point.
