Description
Introducing the M-Audio EX66, a pinnacle of precision in studio monitoring, designed for the discerning audio professional. Its midwoofer-tweeter-midwoofer (MTM) configuration ensures a broad and coherent sweet spot, while minimizing room reflections and providing optimal imaging. This setup allows the EX66 to channel sound into a narrower vertical pattern, eliminating reflection issues common in traditional 2-way speakers.
The dual 6" custom linear-piston woofers are not only highly durable but also deliver exceptional definition and precision. They feature proprietary technology that minimizes driver break-up modes and inertial effects, ensuring linear pistonic action across the musical spectrum. Complementing these woofers, the 1" titanium-dome tweeter offers smooth transparency without high-frequency smearing, thanks to its aerospace-grade construction that moves resonant modes above the audible threshold.
The M-Audio EX66 doesn't just sound great; it's built to last. Its custom-designed MDF cabinet is reinforced with unique adiabatic foam to absorb vibrations and enhance low-frequency response. The dual-flanged rear-cabinet port efficiently transfers air with minimal noise, enhancing bass response without unwanted friction noise.
With onboard DSP, the EX66 is meticulously tuned for an accurate frequency response, using sophisticated filters for a smooth transition between drivers. Capable of handling digital inputs up to 24-bit/192kHz, and with high-impedance balanced analog inputs, your signal path remains pristine. Bi-amplified with 200 watts per channel, this monitor ensures every nuance of your mix is heard with unrivaled clarity.

Garson on M-Audio’s EX66 reference monitors: “Since Ive gotten the EX66 reference monitors, my musical output has more than doubled—this has to do with the great sounds I’ve been getting through the speakers. The statistics show that Ive doubled my output of composing—the sound helps inspire that, because when the sound is right I feel more inspired to compose. I removed my NS10 nearfield monitors, and I put the EX66’s right on my piano—they sound great and I’m really happy with them. I’m writing more, the sound is inspiring me and they are very powerful.
“Ive been a happy camper with the EX66’s—I love to blast them loud with a SBX subwoofer also. I have to inspire myself, and the sound is what does it for me. They sound as good as speakers that cost two or three thousand dollars. Theyre more exciting than my NS10’s, and are more emotional for me. I kept the NS10s on my piano for 23 years—now I’ve retired them and I’m using the EX66’s. They have a very accurate frequency response—when I heard them for the first time, I knew I wanted them.”
