Notes: The larger model in M-Audio's Forty series, the Eighty features an eight-inch woofer for impressive bass response, plus Bluetooth for quick streaming from devices. Voice modes can be customised to the user's taste, with Flat and Hype settings for quick comparisons across different sonic profiles.
Supplier's Notes:
The Forty Series brings pristine audio to life with built-in DSP that provides precise crossover and customisable equalisation to deliver sound quality above and beyond the analogue filtering currently available in monitors at this price point.
M-Audio Forty Series: Experience your sound
Designed for every beat-maker, producer, DJ, mix engineer, content creator and party starter out there. The M-Audio Forty Series is a perfect choice for the new generation of creators.
For the producer hustle
Whether you're laying down heavy beats, tracking powerful lead guitar riffs, or crafting euphoric electronic adventures, the Forty Sixty and Forty Eighty monitors are clever production partners. Enjoy detailed and customisable sound that invites every element of your track to come to life. With these monitors, what you hear in your studio will sound outstanding in the club, on streaming platforms, and everywhere in between.
DJ Essentials
The Forty Series monitors are built to handle deep bass lines and crisp highs so you can keep track of your mix and deliver the smoothest transitions and fattest double drops with absolute precision. Whether you're practicing your set or throwing a party, your mix will sound tight and dynamic, giving you the confidence to push your mix to the max.
Precision sound engineering
Mix engineers are familiar with the importance of precision and clarity, and that's exactly where the Forty Series delivers. With professional-grade Burr-Brown analogue-to-digital conversion and DSP processing, you'll hear every detail of your mix. These monitors create a clean and accurate representation of your sound, so you can make informed decisions and craft mixes that translate perfectly from car systems to club systems.
The creator's workhorse
For content creators, consistent sound quality is everything. Whether you're producing a podcast, editing a video, or streaming, the Forty Series monitors deliver crystal-clear audio that ensures your content sounds professional. The precise DSP crossover helps you pick up every detail, ensuring your audience hears exactly what you intended.
Party with Bluetooth
Throwing a house party or just want to kick back and jam? The Forty Series allows you to do just that with Bluetooth 5.0 true wireless stereo (TWS) audio streaming. Simply connect any device and fill your space with rich sound. No cables, no hassle - just seamless and immersive sound that keeps the party going.
Instant listening modes
A lot of time and precision goes in to delivering a perfected final mixdown, but music is enjoyed outside of a perfectly treated acoustic room. To address this, M-Audio designed a simple front panel button that allows you to easily switch from a ruler-flat mix reference to HYPE mode that emulates a mix common in ear buds and car stereos. Beyond that, experiment with a custom mode where you can specifically define all parameters of your sound with the M-Audio Studio Control App.
Tailor your sound with the M-Audio Studio Control app
The M-Audio Studio Control App gives you the power to shape your sound as you see fit. Access customizable presets and a 5-band EQ to tweak your output to match your room, and your preferences via the front panel Instant Listening Modes. Rear panel trim control lets you dial in your XLR and TRS analogue inputs to ensure you can integrate these monitors seamlessly into any studio setup.
