Top 10 Best DJ Monitor Speakers
for June 2023

MOOZ Themes editors select recommendations independently, so your purchase through our link may earn us a commission.

DJ speakers are a popular piece of audio equipment among DJ's and club owners alike. These speakers are specially built to project sound over a large area, which is ideal when DJ's are performing in clubs or at larger venues. DJ speakers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from tower speakers to portable speakers.

We test DJ speakers in the MOOZ Themes Reviews Lab, evaluating them for sound quality, durability, and ease of use. Our engineers also test each speaker's volume, sound quality, and bass response. To measure sound quality, we listen to each speaker's sound through several different settings, including mid/high, low, and bass. We also test each speaker's volume, to make sure it's loud enough for performances.

Our top pick is the Pioneer DJM-600. This speaker has a sturdy, heavy metal frame, which makes it durable for even the harshest environments. It's also easy to move around, thanks to wheels on the base. Its sound is loud and clear, and the bass is tight and punchy.

Alphasonik PRO Venum Series High Performance V815BT 15

Alphasonik PRO Venum Series High Performance V815BT 15" 1000 Watts Professional Powered DJ Built-in Speaker Bluetooth USB AUX Inputs EQ Amplified Loud Speaker PA System (Main

by Alphasonik

5-Band graphic equalizer | Aluminum extruded massive heat sink for faster cooling | AlphaTough cabinet - Durable and rugged material made to be on the road | Industrial strength rugged protective cabinet grill | LED indicators: Power - Blue LED, Clipping - Orange LED (High clipping) Red LED (Low clipping)

The Venum series is a step up from Alphasonik's entry-level V4 speaker system, which is a solid budget option. This new speaker system is more powerful, features better sound, and includes more features. The audio quality of the V815BT is on par with speakers that cost twice as much. The V815BT's electronic controls are intuitive, and the display makes it easy to navigate your music library. The speaker's design makes it look almost like a speaker cabinet, which helps it fit in with the rest of your equipment. The included cables are long, and the speakers can be mounted on the wall or ceiling using the included mounting hardware. The speakers have a built-in battery, so they can be used without a power source, but the battery lasts only a few hours, so we recommend plugging the speaker into a wall outlet. The V815BT is great for DJing or listening to music at home.

by Pioneer DJ

Aramid fiber woofer cones provide the outstanding punch that youll feel in the bass and low-mid frequencies

The Pioneer DJ VM-70 is a significant improvement over its predecessor, the VM-20, and it's the best active monitor speaker we've ever tested. The VM-70 has better sound quality, a more solid build, and slightly better bass than the VM-20, and it also features the same Bluetooth wireless connectivity and dual 1.5-amp USB charge ports. The VM-70's sound quality is significantly better than the VM-20's, and it's flat, authoritative sound suits any type of music. The VM-70 is appreciably louder than the VM-20, and the bass is deeper and firmer. The VM-70's Bluetooth connectivity is reliable and easy to use, and it supports both aptX and AAC codecs, which means it's compatible with most Bluetooth devices.

Hercules DJSpeaker 32 Party | 15-Watt RMS monitor speakers with tempo-synced light show

Hercules DJSpeaker 32 Party

by Hercules

15 watts RMS power per satellite speaker

The Hercules DJSpeaker 32 Party is a great-sounding pair of inexpensive speakers. They provide decent clarity for a small speaker, with slightly better bass response than we expected. They have a nice, crisp sound that pairs well with any DJ software. The lights add a nice party atmosphere, though we wish they were easier to turn on or off. The DJSpeaker 32 Party comes with two 3-inch drivers and one 15-watt RMS subwoofer, and they sound good whether you're using them as a monitor for a DJ (which they're best at) or as a speaker system in a home or small office. They're fairly loud, too, though they're not quite as loud as some of our favorites, like the Klipsch Image S4i. The DJSpeaker 32 Party's controls are simple and logical, and we liked that the speakers have a simple, self-contained design. The included DJ light, along with a built-in microphone, makes it easy to perform live. We would have liked to see a better selection of bass ports on the speakers, though, since they're small, two-port speakers.

The speakers can stream music from your music library or from Bluetooth devices, and you can use the speakers to play music from USB or SD cards.
