This tbh, although it depends what you want them for.
From a music production point of view...
I've got a pair of Studiophile BX5's (predecessors to the BX5a) and, although they've served me very well for the price, I'm increasingly finding that with only a 5" driver the bass isn't deep and clear enough for me to really make things sound how I want.
So if you dabble in production or are planning to at some stage, I'd go a bit bigger - say 7" or 8" cones if you can stretch to that (but still make sure they're decent models!)
If this is just for mixing in your room, either will do the job pretty well - I've only thoroughly tested the M-Audio ones but the Alesis had really good reviews.
The BX5s had a bass roll-off control on the back which was really useful for not fucking off your housemates the whole time - they should have left it on the BX5A!

Pristine sound and they go really loud. Add a sub and you're set.
