Review: Very clear, very simple - I bought these to listen to Spotify from my phone via Bluetooth, and as external speakers for an old and cheap DAB radio plugged in with a 3.5mm to RCA cable. The Bluetooth connection was very easy to set up, and perfectly stable. With the included 3.5mm to RCA cable connected, I noticed a slight hum from the left speaker when there is no, or very low, output. After a rummage in my big cables bag I found a heavier cable (Pure AV) and tried that instead - perfect, hum gone, silence from both speakers even with the volume right up. I guess the heavier cable is screened. The Production / DJ switch is a subtle difference, I suspect most people will leave it on DJ, it's like a mild loudness button. White speakers (they were cheaper) are quite strange looking in an Imperial Stormtrooper kind of way. Fine for my hobby room though, and actually quite good if you are to bracket mount them on a white wall, as I probably will. Sound is what I'd call crisp, very clear, quite punchy bass, and that's despite my two inputs not being of the highest quality. Time can be spent fiddling with the Eq controls in Spotify if necessary. They go pretty loud too, much louder than I need in a small room, enough for the whole upper floor of the house, in fact. The joining cable between the speakers is pretty short, though easy to replace. The volume control on the front of the right speaker is handily placed, but it does seem like it could also have usefully incorporated the power switch, instead of that being on the back plate, which could be awkward depending on how (if) they are mounted. Slightly concerned now about the lack of protection on the front after my wife walked in (after two martinis) and asked if she could press the tweeter in with her thumb. Overall very happy though, and currently enjoying the clear and hiss free DAB radio through these very nice speakers. I get good reception, but could upgrade the receiver at some point I guess. Note that it doesn't make it too clear in the description, but these support Qualcomm aptX Low Latency Bluetooth.
Review: Perfect! - Omg, these are beasts for smaller monitors! Perfect for any set up at home or small occasions. Great sound for producers and Djs! I would recommend these any day. They look great too and Bluetooth is a great addition!

## Features

- The DM series speakers deliver balanced, punchy bass sound and they can pump out extra power thanks to the new Class D amplifier and 4-inch woofer in each unit. Flick the switch to change from DJ mode to Production mode and the DSP settings will automatically create the best sound for each application.
- Advanced design for higher quality sound
- 2-way sound mode – optimized for DJing and music production There’s no need to decide whether you want a set of monitors that are best for DJing or making music, because the DM series speakers are perfect for both. Just flip the switch to choose either DJ mode or Production mode and the DSP settings will be optimized for the task, leaving you free to concentrate on your mix.
- Easy to use with different DJ or production equipment With RCA and mini jack terminals you can connect different kinds of gear such as DJ controllers and mixers, or the laptop or soundcard you use. Connecting your headphones is simple via the socket on the front panel and the level knob is right in front of you too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Big Sound in a Small Package – Great Clarity and Bass!
*by G***Y on 5 June 2025*

I wasn't expecting such powerful sound from a compact set of speakers, but the Pioneer DM-50s absolutely blew me away. For their size, the sound quality is outstanding. Whether I'm producing music, DJing, or just listening casually, the clarity and balance are on point. The tones are crisp and clean, with surprisingly detailed highs and mids. Vocals sound natural and instruments come through with great separation. What really impressed me is the bass – it's deep, punchy, and well-controlled, even without a subwoofer. You can feel it, but it doesn’t muddy up the mix. Build quality is solid, and they look sleek on the desk. They're perfect for small studio setups or tight spaces where you still want professional-quality sound without huge monitors. Highly recommended for producers, DJs, or anyone looking for premium sound in a small footprint!
