The Pioneer DJ VM-50 Active Monitors produce a natural sound with low-distortion, a fast-attack and punchy bass response for powerful performance. The flexible DSP settings allow the speakers to be shaped and tuned to the room characteristics so they’re ideal for recreating a club sound at home or in the studio. This makes them ideal for DJing, mixing and monitoring with.
Main features of the Pioneer DJ VM-50 Active Monitors include:
Clear, low-distortion audio with fast-attacking bass: Recreate club-style sound
- High-quality components
Each model in the VM speaker series includes a Class D amplifier with 96 kHz sampling DSP to enable wide-bandwidth audio reproduction. Its highly efficient performance results in low distortion and brings increased energy to the sound. The 4-mm-thick rigid aluminum front baffle also suppresses resonance and reduces vibrations, helping the speaker to deliver sound that’s authentic to the original source.
- Aramid fiber woofer cones and Vortex Bass Accelerator
From minimum to maximum volume, Aramid fiber woofer cones provide outstanding punch that you’ll feel in the bass and low-mid frequencies. These newly developed cones are 30 percent lighter than conventional paper-lined Aramid cones, making them stronger and helping them to pump out deep sounds. The Vortex Bass Accelerator also ensures that low-end audio is tight and free from unwanted vibrations, as ribs in the bass reflex port enable air to flow freely from the speaker to deliver pure sound – whether you’re listening to vocals or instrumentals.
- Constant directivity horn
Mid and high-frequency sounds are delivered with power from the VM series speakers thanks to the constant directivity horn, which also creates a broad, uniform listening space. The shape of the horn and the woofer edge are specially designed so that the flat playback frequency crosses over to the tweeter easily, resulting in a natural sound.
DSP control: Easily adjust the sound to suit your room
The VM series speakers are voiced flat to ensure you hear the natural sound of the music. But every room reacts differently to audio waves. To help you tweak the output and find the sound that’s perfect for the room you’re working in, each VM speaker includes DSP settings.
Reach around to the back of the speakers and you’ll find 2 knobs: Low EQ and High EQ. Without needing to look at the rear panel, you can click the knobs into 4 different positions each, giving you 16 possible EQ settings that are simple to engage. Choose the one that sounds best for DJing or producing music in your home or studio, depending on the shape, size, and construction of the room. For example, if your speakers are positioned near to walls or if you’re working at night, you might want to minimize bass vibrations by switching the Low EQ to Room 1 mode. Or if you find that you’re not getting enough treble, you can boost the highest frequencies by switching the High EQ to Room 2 mode.
Fresh, professional design: Enhance the look and sound of your setup
The brand-new design of the hexagonal aluminum front baffle brings a fresh look, as well as improved sound quality and durability. It cuts down unwanted vibrations for lower distortion while the tweeter protective guard reduces the risk of damage to the high-frequency diaphragm if you accidentally poke that area. And the Alumite-treated brushed texture gives the speakers a professional finish so they look right at home next to Pioneer DJ gear.
