Pioneer S-DJ50X Studio Monitors with DJ Tutor

First look November 2014

Contents of the video

Alright ladies and gentlemen, we have in front of you a set of power speakers from a company called Pioneer. The ones that we've got on the video are the SDJ-50X. They also do the SDJ-60S and the SDJ-80X. They're known as reference speakers so Don't start thinking you buy these and turn up to a gig with 60 or 70 people because you're probably knackering. These are for monitoring purposes, so if you're a bedroom DJ, maybe you're a producer, something like that, and you want some good quality speakers to get the optimum sound, then probably look no further really. Alright, give you a little bit of spec here. The 50s, the ones you've got in front of you, the low frequency amp is 30 watts and the high frequency amp is 15 watts. So you've got two amps in there which is very good. The lower end monitor speakers, what they probably do is just one amplifier but Pioneer have gone a step ahead and you've got two separate amplifiers, one for the low, one for the high. The 60X have got a 50 watt low amplifier and a 20 watt high.

The 80 has got a 70 watt low frequency amplifier and a high frequency amp of 20 watts. So let's just have a quick look at the back. Very straightforward, unbalanced RCA in, balanced TRS which is also quarter inch jack and XLR. You've got auto standby switch and this here is For your high frequency level adjust. So if you want to, you can just maybe dampen down a little bit of the high frequency or increase it by one dB but if you are a music producer quite often they'll have it known as flat so set that to zero dB and then you have your volume here also known as level very simple power on and that's the input for your power supply In the video you've got the white version, they also come in black as well. I have to admit they're quite sexy looking. Don't forget as well if you want any info on any of the products you see in these videos, don't hesitate, go and check out the link in the description. Take you directly to getinthemix.com where there'll be a bunch of people more than willing to give you any info you want on these Pioneer speakers or for that matter any other products at Get In The Mix. Practice and enjoy, thank you.

The stages are the way through

Below this line is the back catalogue, newest first. Useful for browsing, but it is not a course - the videos are in the order they were filmed, not the order to learn them in. Work the stages instead: each one assumes the one before it.
