This forced quarantine has us all in a new reality.
We’re all bedroom DJs until further notice. If you’re a DJ and didn’t already have a studio setup in your home, you do now.
When setting up a home studio, your monitor sound maybe the last thing on your mind…but it shouldn’t. You want to have a versatile monitor that gives you the best sound possible while remaining a small footprint.
My monitor of choice is from my friends at DAS Audio….the Action-508A. Don’t let its size fool you….this thing KNOCKS! I’m sure my neighbors are happy I only have one…LOL.
The ACTION-508A is an 8-inch active speaker perfect for fixed installations to the portable PA system. With its rotatable horn, the enclosure can be used horizontally in a fixed installation, as a stage monitor or even as front fill.
This speaker is perfect for live sound reinforcement, DJs, conferences and much more. It’s truly a versatile piece of equipment. It has two balanced XLR inputs for mic and line, an additional 3.5 mm mini jack input, and a powerCON connection. The icing on the cake is the DAScontrol interface that allows you to tap into this speaker’s true potential with three difference presets and filters that can be used when paired with subwoofers.
Once we’re back rocking’ parties, this will definitely be part of my arsenal. In addition to its use as a monitor, I plan to use it for my mobile events like wedding ceremonies and cocktail hours. For now, its the perfect companion to my home studio.
