Ex Machina Soundworks: Monitoring Built From the Driver Up

In a world full of “voiced” speakers and room-dependent solutions, Ex Machina Soundworks takes a fundamentally different approach: engineering phase-coherent, measurement-driven, and acoustically honest monitoring systems. From compact immersive rigs to full-range reference monitoring, every system is designed to behave predictably, translate reliably, and scale without compromise.

⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️


SELENE – Compact Coaxial Accuracy for Immersive & ATMOS

SELENE is a compact coaxial reference monitor system designed for immersive and multi-channel workflows where consistency across all speakers matters. Powered by its dedicated EXCore amplifier and DSP, each SELENE pair operates as a self-contained, calibrated system delivering ±1.5dB accuracy, stable off-axis imaging, and controlled phase coherence. It’s ideal for ATMOS height channels, surround applications, or precision nearfield monitoring – anywhere compact accuracy is required without sonic compromise. ⤵️

POSEIDON – Compact Subwoofers, Engineered as Part of the System

POSEIDON is not a generic add-on subwoofer – it’s a purpose-built low-frequency extension designed exclusively for SELENE. Powered directly from SELENE’s EXCore unit, POSEIDON integrates via a zero-phase LR4 crossover, transforming SELENE into a true compact 3-way monitoring system. The result is deeper bass, higher headroom, and precise transient response — all without external amps, bass management, or phase-alignment guesswork. ⤵️

SELENE + POSEIDON – A Complete Compact 3-Way Monitoring Solution

Together, SELENE and POSEIDON form a fully unified compact 3-way monitoring system designed for immersive, stereo, and space-constrained studios. With zero-phase crossover integration and system-level calibration handled entirely by EXCore, this configuration delivers full-range accuracy, consistent imaging, and predictable translation across every channel. SELENE + POSEIDON is a scalable entry point into professional immersive monitoring – compact, complete, and uncompromising. ⤵️

TERRA – Professional 3-Way Coaxial Reference Monitoring

TERRA is Ex Machina Soundworks’ flagship standalone reference monitor, delivering ±1.5dB accuracy from 40Hz–30kHz with exceptional phase coherence and a wide, stable sweet spot. Its three-way coaxial architecture, zero-phase digital crossovers, and monocoque aluminium cabinet eliminate cabinet colouration and time-domain smearing. TERRA is a complete system on its own – built for engineers who demand mixes that translate outside the studio, not just sound impressive inside it. ⤵️

GRAVITY – When TERRA Needs More Depth

GRAVITY is the dedicated passive subwoofer system designed exclusively for TERRA. Powered directly from TERRA’s rear-panel amplification and integrated via a zero-phase LR4 crossover, GRAVITY extends system response down to 30Hz linear (F6 at 20Hz) while increasing headroom and preserving stereo bass accuracy in a compact 2.2 configuration. No external amplification. No bass-management headaches. Just deeper, cleaner extension when the work demands it. ⤵️

One Philosophy, Scaled to Your Studio

From SELENE to TERRA, from compact immersive rigs to full-range reference systems, Ex Machina Soundworks designs monitors as unified systems – not collections of parts. Built like aerospace components, measured like reference instruments, and calibrated from the driver up, these tools are designed to disappear – leaving only your mix.
