Pioneer DJ DM-40BT active Bluetooth DJ monitors
The Pioneer DJ DM-40BT is a new active monitor from the tech giant and the awesome new feature is that they connect wirelessly over Bluetooth.
So aside from connecting the Pioneer DJ DM-40BT speakers via traditional RCA or minijack (no XLR unfortunately) you can also pair them to your Smartphone, tablet or laptop.
This makes the DM-40BT an awesome set of bedroom speakers for budding young DJs and/or bedroom producers as you can lay in bed and stream music for pleasure too.
We’d still suggest a cable connection to your audio interface when practising a DJ set or working on music.
The DM-40BT launches next month and will be available in black or white.
They probably should not be considered for serious production work but for DJs they’ll no doubt be more than adequate and certainly will be okay to venture into producing with.
Expect to pay: $199 (R 2,900 excl. import duties & VAT)
