Fluid Audio FX50 V2

I recently purchased the Fluid Audio FX50 V2 monitors as I was in the market for some 'uncoloured' near field monitors.

All the reviews that I read described the sound that these monitors produced as being 'true', 'uncoloured' and 'flat', so, I decided to give these monitors a try and purchased them with the Fluid Audio DS 5 monitor stands.

WOW, and even more WOW...........was my first impression!

I couldn't believe just how amazing these small self powered monitors sounded, and, coming from such a small cabinet.

The stereo separation was absolutely brilliant and I was hearing instruments and their notation that I hadn't previously heard with my more larger and more expensive speakers.

I played some of my studio music as well as some pre recorded music and both sounded so true, flat and uncoloured that I've since started using the Fluid FX50's more than my other sets of speakers.

When my fellow producers came round, I played them some of my compositions on the Fluid FX50's with them thinking the sound was coming out of my bigger mid field monitors, and when I told them that the sound was coming out of the Fluid FX50's, they were left gobsmacked at the BIG sound coming from them.

So far, everyone that I've played these speakers to have all said that their next set of speakers will be the Fluid FX50's or their bigger brother; the Fluid FX80's.

I can genuinely state that the Fluid FX50's are not only well built and look quality, but they sound absolutely brilliant for their size.

Add to that is their price point which I personally believe is almost an under-price for such effective monitors, but I'm not complaining because value for money, they must be one of, if not THE best sounding near field monitors on the market.

In conclusion, I can only thoroughly recommend these monitors to anyone who's in the market for nearfield monitors.

You won't be disappointed!

Well done Fluid, and keep up the great work!

I've used countless 5" monitors and these are among the best i've tried. Imaging and soundstage is excellent and since it's a coaxial design mid and specially high frequency response is very tight and focused. Bass is there but falls quickly below 100Hz, so if it's your only monitor i'd suggest adding a Sub-Woofer, but as a second pair of monitors they're just great. These aren't very loud and can distort pretty easily, especially with bass-heavy material, but at reasonable distance and volume they should be fine for most users. Highly recommended together with de DS5 stands.

Ich habe nur eine sehr kleine Räumlichkeit und wollte trotzdem ein kleines Dolby Atmos Speaker-Setup installieren, 8" Speaker wären einfach zu groß gewesen. Dann stieß ich auf die FX50 V2, leider gab es in der YouTube-Akademie meist nur Infos zu den FX80 V2, trotzdem habe ich es gewagt und mit 11 Stück der FX50 V2 für ein 7.1.4 Setup bestellt, einen Sub von JBL nannte ich bereits mein Eigen. Ich muss sagen, ich bin derzeit wirklich sehr zufrieden mit dem Setup, die coaxiale Bauart der Speaker sorgt für eine hervorragende Ortung aller Objekte im Mix. Sobald sich wieder etwas Budget angesammelt hat, werde ich dann noch in ein weiteres Pärchen investieren und aus meinem Setup dann ein 9.1.4 Setup machen.

Ich benutze den Monitor singulär als Schallquelle zum Testen meiner Mikrofone, zum Raume akustisch zu vermessen, als Echo-Erzeuger im Treppenhaus und als alternative Abhöre zu meinen Neumann KH120A beim Mischen.
Die Verarbeitung ist natürlich dem Preis angemessen. Klanglich aber wirklich okay, wenn nicht allzu laut gedreht wird. Ein Brüllwürfel ist er nicht. Er rauscht im Leerlauf nur wenig. Das könnte ich nicht ertragen.
