Description
Introducing the SoundX SX-MM5 - a fresh entry into the affordable studio monitor category, launching exclusively through Pro Audio Brands. This active/passive pair pushes 70W combined power through a bi-amp active unit and a matched passive companion, with balanced TRS, RCA, front-panel EQ trim, and a headphone output — everything a home studio or content creator needs to get started on accurate monitoring.
Meet the SoundX SX-MM5 - India's Newest Studio Monitor, First at Pro Audio Brands
The SoundX SX-MM5 is a brand-new active + passive studio monitor pair, and Pro Audio Brands is the first retailer in India to bring it to market. If you're setting up a home studio, YouTube/podcast station, or a compact desk-based mixing rig, the SX-MM5 gives you a proper powered monitoring pair — with balanced inputs, onboard tone controls, and a headphone out — at a price built for creators just getting started.
Active + Passive Design — One Amplifier, Full Stereo Pair
Unlike fully self-powered monitor pairs where each cabinet has its own internal amplifier, the SX-MM5 uses an active/passive configuration: the Left cabinet houses the amplifier and all connectivity, and drives the Right (passive) cabinet directly over a speaker-level connection. This keeps cabling simple — one power cable, one source cable, one speaker cable between the pair — while still delivering a matched stereo image from two identical driver sets.
- Left cabinet (Active): Built-in 70W bi-amplifier, all inputs, all controls, and speaker output to drive the Right unit
- Right cabinet (Passive): Identical woofer/tweeter driver set, powered entirely from the Left unit — no separate power cable needed
Flexible Connectivity for Any Source
The SX-MM5's rear panel is built to connect to almost anything on your desk:
- RCA Unbalanced Input (L/R) — plug in a laptop, audio interface, or any consumer-level source
- TRS Balanced Input (L/R) — for cleaner, noise-resistant connections from interfaces and mixers over longer cable runs
- A rear-panel ground/balance selector switch is provided near the TRS inputs for wiring flexibility
On the front of the active unit, you also get a dedicated Aux In and a Phones (headphone) jack, so you can quickly plug in a phone, tablet, or headphones without reaching around the back.
Front-Panel Volume + Rear Tone Controls
The active speaker has a Volume knob on the front panel for quick level control while you work, and the rear panel adds:
- Low EQ trim: −6dB to +6dB
- High EQ trim: −6dB to +6dB
These let you tune the low-end and top-end response to match your room and desk placement — pull back the bass if your monitors sit close to a wall, or add a touch of high-end air if your room is heavily damped.
Built for Small Studios and Desk Setups
- Amplifier Power: 70W total (35W per speaker)
- Frequency Response: 70Hz – 20kHz
- Input Impedance: 10 kΩ
- Soft-dome tweeter and woven-cone woofer in each cabinet, in a compact matte-black enclosure that fits comfortably either side of a monitor or laptop
- Universal power input: 110–240V, 50/60Hz, so it works on Indian mains without any adapter

- First-time home studio builders on a budget
- Podcasters and YouTubers who need a proper monitoring pair over laptop/TV speakers
- Students and hobbyist producers looking for balanced TRS input support

FAQ Section
Is the SoundX SX-MM5 an active or passive speaker pair?
It's a hybrid pair — the Left unit is active (self-powered, with a built-in 70W amplifier and all the inputs/controls), and it drives the Right unit, which is passive and has no amplifier of its own. You only need to plug the Left (active) unit into mains power.
What inputs does the SoundX SX-MM5 support?
It has both RCA unbalanced inputs and TRS balanced inputs on the rear panel, plus a front-panel Aux In and headphone (Phones) jack.
Does the SoundX SX-MM5 have Bluetooth?
No, this model does not include Bluetooth. It's a wired-only monitor pair designed for direct connection via RCA or TRS.
Can I adjust the bass and treble on the SX-MM5?
Yes. The rear panel includes Low and High EQ trim knobs, each adjustable from −6dB to +6dB, so you can tune the sound to your room.
What audio interface or source works with the SX-MM5?
Anything with an RCA or TRS output will work — laptops, audio interfaces, mixers, or consumer devices via the Aux In. TRS balanced connections are recommended for longer cable runs or noisy environments.
Is the SoundX SX-MM5 available anywhere else in India?
No — this is a brand-new product, and Pro Audio Brands is currently the exclusive first-to-market seller in India.
What's the difference between the Active and Passive unit?
The Active unit contains the amplifier, volume control, EQ knobs, and all input connections. The Passive unit has no amplifier and receives its signal directly from the Active unit's speaker-level output.
