#73 M-Audio BX4 D3 eBay

Same family: the M-Audio BX5 D3 (larger bookshelf, ranked higher, rated 3.9/5) and the M-Audio BX8 D3 (larger bookshelf, rated 4/5).

Pros: Balanced TRS, RCA and front auxiliary/headphone connections, plus tone controls, make this a flexible inexpensive desktop pair. The third-party measurement gives scores of 3.29 standalone and 6.03 with an ideal subwoofer, with -3dB bass estimated around 67Hz.

Cons: A rising response of about 0.62dB per octave and listening-window deviation of 0.546 indicate bright, locally uneven reproduction. The compact system suits moderate nearfield use; the preference estimate does not verify high-level headroom.
