DJs looking for a pair of studio speakers will be thrilled with the black Pioneer DJ DM-50D, a pair of high-quality studio monitors with DSP that include a DJ/Production switch, providing two distinct performance articulations for their respective applications—all from a single set of speakers.

The class-D amplifier outputs 2 x 25W of power at 4 ohms. The 5" fiberglass woofers deliver a natural, punchy bass, and the 3/4" soft-dome tweeters deliver well-balanced high frequencies. A stereo mini-jack headphone output with a speaker-volume knob are built into the front panel of the speaker.

The rear panel features dual 1/4", stereo RCA, and 3.5mm stereo mini-jack inputs, along with an output to the right satellite speaker. In addition, a power cord, a 6.6' speaker cable (for the satellite speaker), a 3.5mm to RCA adapter cable, and bottom cushions are also included.

Each DM-50D speaker produces pure, balanced bass sound, thanks to a new Class-D amplifier with 96 kHz sampling DSP. In addition, the DM-50D model features an updated DECO convex diffuser to help deliver crystal-clear high frequencies in every direction. When artists need to raise the volume, the new 5-inch woofer creates extra power and its tweeter alignment allows artists to hear pristine sound frequencies. The grooves on the ducts reduce air friction to provide tight and punchy bass, while the curved front edges provide maximum rigidity and minimum resonance for clean audio at any volume level.

Gone are the days of deciding whether a monitor is best for DJing or making music—the DM-50D speakers accommodate to both needs. Artists simply flip the switch to choose either DJ mode or Production mode, and the DSP settings will optimize for the task, leaving artists free to concentrate on their mix.

With RCA, mini-jack, and newly added TRS input terminals, artists can connect different kinds of gear including DJ controllers and mixers, or the laptop and soundcard artists use for music production. Connecting and disconnecting headphones is simple via the mini plug on the DM-50D front panel. Volume control is easily accessible with the volume level knob now featured on the front of the speaker, removing the need to reach behind the back of the speakers to adjust the sound.

Artists can bring a slick, professional look to their setup by choosing from two different colors. The finish of the black DM-50D can seamlessly blend with classic DJ equipment while the white DM-50D-W can better complement the interior design of the artist’s creative environment.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does the Canon DM-E1D have an integrated shock mount?

A: Canon does not make specific mention of any internal or integrated shock absorption capabilities for the Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone. It does not appear that there is any internal shock mount integration.

Q: 2. Does this mic have an internal AD converter or use the cameras? If so what recording rate/bit-depth does it support?

A: The Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone provides digital signal output and connects to the camera digitally with a cable-free connection using the camera's multifunction shoe. It offer a sample rate of 48 kHz with a bit depth of 16 bits.

Q: 3. Is this compatible with the XA series of camcorders, specifically the XA40?

A: No, the Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is not compatible for use with the Canon XA40 Professional UHD 4K Camcorder. The XA40 lacks the specific Multi-Function Shoe interface required for operation of the DM-E1D.

Q: 4. Is this compatible with the 5D Mark III?

A: No, the Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is not compatible with the EOS 5D Mark III Camera. The DM-E1D uses a cable-free and battery-free connection to connect to select Canon cameras that are equipped with Canon's new Multi-Function Shoe, which is a standard feature on the new EOS R3 Mirrorless Digital Camera. Since the 5D Mark III uses a conventional hot shoe, not the Multi-Function Shoe, you can use the Canon DM-E1 Directional Microphone (B&H # CADME1) which uses a wired connection and is powered by a CR2032 button-type lithium cell battery.

Q: 5. Is M50 Mark II compatible?

A: No, the Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is not compatible for use with the Canon EOS M50 Mark II Mirrorless Camera. The M50 lacks the Multi-Function Shoe interface required for use of the DM-E1D.

Q: 6. Is this compatible with the EOS 90D?

A: The Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is compatible for use with select Canon cameras that incorporate Canon's Multi-Function Shoe interface. The Canon EOS 90D DSLR Camera does not incorporate the Multi-Function Shoe and is therefore not compatible for use with the DM-E1D Stereo Microphone.

Q: 7. will the dm-e1d work with the canon r6 mark II?

A: Yes, the Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is compatible for use with the Canon EOS R6 Mark II Mirrorless Camera.

Q: 8. R10 compatible?

Q: 10. How would this be on a Canon XF605? The hot shoe is at the rear (about 1' from a shotgun).

A: The Canon DM-E1D Stereo Microphone is not compatible for use with the Canon XF605 UHD 4K HDR Pro Camcorder because the DM-E1D is intended for use with Canon mirrorless and DSLR cameras that have the Multi-Function Shoe for a cable-free and battery-free connection. The XFF605 has a standard shoe. It can be used with the Canon DM-E1 Directional Microphone (B&H # CADME1), which is a similar microphone that connects with a cable and uses a battery for power.
