These monitors adapt to your needs with quality drivers, smart integrated design, and strong DSP.
M-Audio Studiophile DSM1's are reference studio monitors engineered to provide superior monitoring for
discerning audio professionals. The DSM1 active studio monitor's design results from a collaboration between 2 powerhouse
music technology companies: M-Audio and Digidesign. The DSM1 monitor features DSP-based crossover management, an assortment
of onboard digital EQ controls, proprietary high-grade driver designs, and analog and digital inputs for high-resolution audio
up to 24-bit/192kHz. With stunning accuracy, clarity, and dynamic range, the Studiophile DSM1 monitor makes world-class reference
technology accessible to a broad array of creative and professional environments.
Redefining the World-Class
Near-Field Monitor
Over the last 20 years, M-Audio has achieved critical acclaim across diverse lines of music production tools. They attribute
much of this success to the fact that each product group operates like a small boutique shop within the organization. The
Los Angeles-based engineering team that designed the Studiophile speaker line applied their expertise to the DSM drivers,
power amps, cabinetry, and electronics. Along the way, they worked with top recording engineers and producers to refine the
Studiophile DSM monitors for optimal performance.
Powerful DSP
M-Audio engineers worked closely with their counterparts at Digidesign to bring their experience to the Studiophile DSM1 monitor.
The powerful onboard DSP engine controls a complex 4th-order digital crossover. It also provides clear and accurate audio
imaging by compensating for phase differences between the two drivers at the crossover point. This makes the DSM1 deliver
perfect acoustic alignment and exceptional imaging. And as a result of exhaustive tuning and listening sessions, the DSM1
monitor provides incredible tonal accuracy, excellent dynamic range, and exceptionally low distortion.
Tailor
the Speaker to Your Room
Your listening environment and speaker placement greatly impact monitor performance. To ensure optimal monitoring in your
studio, the onboard DSP also manages a broad range of customizable performance filter settings that allow you to tailor each
speaker to your room. DSM1 offers DSP-controlled high and low frequency roll-offs along with an assortment of EQ settings,
from Acoustic Space to Q, to help optimize the speaker for placement within even the most difficult acoustic environments.
High-Class Drivers
To ensure excellent sonic clarity, the Studiophile DSM1 monitor features a custom-designed, 6.5-inch anodized aluminum cone
woofer that actively reduces distortion by pushing the break-up mode out of the pass band for maximum low-frequency detail
at any volume level. The 1-inch ferrofluid-cooled tweeter is made of a soft Teteron dome, which strikes the perfect balance
between efficiency and damping to produce a controlled high-frequency breakup out to 27kHz. The drivers and their carefully
matched power amps provide a wide 42Hz—27kHz frequency response and outstanding dynamic range, ensuring that you hear
an accurate representation of your audio at all volumes.
Strategically Integrated Design
Each component in the DSM1 monitor is customized to deliver outstanding sound quality in a compact form factor. Featuring
an exclusive design, the sturdy cabinet is constructed from high-density material with internal bracing that renders it acoustically
inert. The tuned bass-reflex dual-sided flared port offers increased SPL with extended bass response and low turbulence, while
the carefully matched Class D power amps deliver ample power with low distortion and excellent efficiency. The custom-voiced
components ensure hours of accurate listening without fatigue. And the professional analog and digital inputs support studio-grade
audio resolutions up to 24-bit/192kHz, revealing every detail that you've created with your digital audio workstation.
Uncompromised
Reliability
Far beyond the industry standards, the DSM1 monitor design endures a severe 100-hour continuous pink noise qualification process,
ensuring its reliability in the harshest studio environments. This 100-hour reliability test starts with each individual driver
design. Once each driver design successfully passes, the entire assembly is qualified as a system via the same 100-hour process.
This highly rigorous design qualification process ensures that the DSM1 monitors will perform at the highest level for hours
on end, every time you turn them on.
