Pioneer DJ VM-50 Active Monitor - Black - Single

The Pioneer DJ VM-50 Active Monitor is a DJ and studio monitor packed with modern tech and premium components. These details allow the monitor to produce crystal-clear audio with responsive, punchy bass.

The VM-50 monitor is smartly designed to adapt to the acoustics of any space. It delivers powerful club-style audio for DJ performances or a clean, flat frequency response ideal for music production, whether you're working in a professional studio or a home setup.

Premium Components

Each VM-50 speaker includes two Class D amplifiers with 96 kHz sampling DSP to enable wide-bandwidth audio reproduction. Their highly efficient performance results in low distortion and high-energy sound. The 4-mm-thick rigid aluminium front baffle further suppresses resonance and vibrations, delivering authentic sound to the original source.

Pro-Level Design

The Pioneer DJ VM-50 features a striking hexagonal aluminium front baffle design that upgrades sound clarity and long-term durability. This strong structure helps reduce unwanted vibrations, resulting in lower distortion and cleaner audio, especially when the monitor is cranked up.

A protective guard shields the tweeter from potential damage, keeping the high-frequency diaphragm safe. Finished with an Alumite-treated brushed texture, the speakers have a sleek aesthetic that complements Pioneer DJ equipment.

Clean and Punchy Bass

The Aramid fibre woofer cone delivers a real low-end punch, which you'll feel in the bass and low-mid frequencies. Not only are these newly designed cones 30% lighter than conventional paper-lined Aramid cones, but they're also stronger, faster, and have a deeper frequency.

Thanks to the Vortex Bass Accelerator, the low end remains punchy and precise without any unwanted vibrations. This is ideal for DJS who love to feel the bass end. Plus, specially designed ribs within the bass reflex port allow air to move smoothly, ensuring clean, undistorted bass that stays true to the original sound.

Constant Directivity Horn

The constant directivity horn delivers powerful mid and high frequencies while creating a wide, consistent sweet spot for an immersive listening experience. Carefully engineered, the horn and woofer edge work in harmony to ensure a smooth frequency crossover to the tweeter, producing a balanced, natural sound across the spectrum.

DSP control

The VM series speakers are tuned for a flat response, allowing you to experience your music precisely as it was intended. Each unit features built-in DSP settings to tailor the output to your specific space. Located on the rear panel are two intuitive knobs – Low EQ and High EQ – each with four distinct click-stop positions, offering a total of 16 easy-to-use EQ combinations.

Whether you're DJing or producing tracks, you can quickly adjust the sound to suit the room's size, layout, and acoustic properties, making it perfect for home studios or professional setups.

DSP Control Settings

LOW EQ

You can use this to adjust the bass, depending on the location of your speaker and the sound you want for DJing or producing music.

• L1: Room 1: Perfect for late-night sessions or setups where your speaker is placed close to a wall, this mode applies a 6 dB high-pass filter at 63 Hz to reduce low-end frequencies, helping to keep bass levels controlled and preventing excessive rumble.
• L2: Flat: Designed to deliver an accurate and uncoloured sound, this flat frequency response setting is ideal for music production in acoustically treated environments. It's the go-to choice for producers seeking precise monitoring.
• L3: Room 2: This setting boosts the bass by 2.5 dB at 50 Hz using a bell EQ, making it ideal for larger rooms or whenever you want your sound to have more punch without overwhelming clarity.
• L4: Club Bass: For maximum impact, this mode adds serious weight to the bass with a 5 dB boost at 50 Hz and an additional 2 dB lift at 200 Hz. It's the ultimate choice for recreating a powerful, club-style sound—perfect for parties or DJing when you want the bass to hit hard.

HIGH EQ

You can use this to adjust the treble, depending on the location of your speaker and the sound you want for DJing or producing music.

• H1: Room 1: This mode tones down the high frequencies with a 3 dB cut from 3.5 kHz to 12 kHz via a high-shelf EQ—ideal for taming bright, echoey rooms where treble can feel overwhelming or harsh.
• H2: Flat: This flat setting is best for music production in acoustically treated spaces, offering a balanced, unaltered frequency response. It's the preferred choice for accurate monitoring and critical listening.
• H3: Room 2: This setting boosts frequencies by 3 dB at 7 kHz with a high-shelf EQ, helping details shine through in spaces lacking top-end clarity.
• H4: Bright Treble: Using bell EQS, enhance detail and presence with a 1.5 dB boost at 4 kHz and an extra 3.5 dB lift at 8 kHz. This setting brings out the finer textures in instruments like cymbals, guitars, and brass—ideal for adding sparkle and definition to your mix.
