The Pioneer DJ VM-50-W Active Monitor is a professional reference monitor for DJs and music producers. It incorporates cutting-edge technology and premium components. This advanced reference monitor offers exceptional sound quality, providing sharp, clear audio and deep, dynamic bass for an immersive listening experience.

Engineered to adjust to different room acoustics, the VM-50 delivers powerful, club-quality sound perfect for DJ performances. Additionally, it offers a flat, accurate frequency response ideal for music production, whether in a professional studio or working from home.

Premium Components

Every VM-50 speaker features dual Class D amplifiers and a 96 kHz sampling DSP, ensuring high-quality audio reproduction with an extended bandwidth.

These amplifiers provide powerful, distortion-free sound with exceptional clarity thanks to their impressive efficiency. The 4mm thick, sturdy aluminium front baffle effectively reduces resonance and vibrations, delivering pure, unaltered sound that stays true to the original source.

Professional Design

The Pioneer DJ VM-50 boasts an eye-catching hexagonal aluminium front baffle designed to support sound precision and long-lasting performance. This robust design effectively minimises unwanted vibrations, reducing distortion and ensuring cleaner audio, even at higher volumes.

The tweeter has a protective guard to protect it from potential damage and ensure the high-frequency diaphragm remains intact. With their Alumite-treated brushed finish, the VM-50 speakers deliver outstanding audio and offer a stylish, modern look that perfectly complements other Pioneer DJ gear.

Clean and Punchy Bass

The VM-50's Aramid fibre woofer cone provides a powerful low-end impact and a deep, punchy feel in the bass and low-mid frequencies. These newly engineered cones are 30% lighter than traditional paper-lined Aramid cones. Yet, they boast greater strength, speed, and an extended frequency range.

With the Vortex Bass Accelerator, the bass remains tight and precise, eliminating unwanted vibrations. This makes it perfect for DJs who want to experience the bass with clarity. The specially crafted ribs in the bass reflex port optimise airflow, ensuring clean, distortion-free bass that faithfully reproduces the original sound.

Constant Directivity Horn

The constant directivity horn provides clear and powerful mid to high frequencies, creating a broad, consistent sweet spot for an enhanced, immersive audio experience. Designed with precision, the horn and woofer edge seamlessly integrate to facilitate a smooth frequency transition to the tweeter, delivering a natural and well-balanced sound across the entire frequency range.

DSP control

The VM series speakers are designed to deliver a flat response, ensuring your music sounds exactly as it was meant to. Each speaker comes with integrated DSP settings, allowing you to customise the output to fit your specific environment.

On the rear panel, you'll find two user-friendly knobs – Low EQ and High EQ – each offering four distinct click-stop positions, providing 16 simple EQ combinations to fine-tune your sound.

These speakers are ideal for professional DJs and music producers. They allow quick adjustments to accommodate the room's size, layout, and acoustic characteristics, making them perfect for home studios and 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. It offers a balanced, unaltered frequency response, making it 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.
