Know before you buy
The up-angled cabinet is specifically designed for desktop placement. It projects the sound directly toward your ears when the speakers are sitting on a desk, ensuring you hear the full frequency range without needing external isolation stands.
The DBM50 includes HF, MF, and LF room filters that allow you to adjust the speaker's output to compensate for acoustic issues in your room. This is particularly useful if your desk is placed against a wall or in a corner, where bass buildup or reflections can often color the sound.
Yes, the DBM50 features both XLR and RCA inputs. You can connect them to professional audio interfaces using XLR cables or to consumer-grade equipment using RCA cables.
With a frequency response down to 46Hz, these monitors provide a solid low-end foundation for most desktop mixing tasks. However, they do include a high-pass filter setting, making it easy to integrate a dedicated subwoofer if you require deeper sub-bass extension.
The DBM50 is engineered for a neutral, uncolored sound, which is essential for minimizing ear fatigue. By providing a precise, accurate representation of your mix, you won't have to strain to hear details, allowing you to work comfortably for longer periods.
The smooth high-frequency waveguide creates a precise sweet spot, ensuring consistent sound dispersion. This helps you maintain a clear, accurate stereo image even when you are sitting in a typical near-field desktop position.
