Pros and cons

According to our studio speaker expert

  • Connect the speakers directly to your laptop or DJ controller because it is an active speaker.
  • The tweeter uses phase shifts so you enjoy a wide stereo sound.
  • Thanks to the compact design, the speakers fit easily into your bedroom.
  • You need a subwoofer if you want to hear all low frequencies well.

Description

With the Hercules DJ Monitor 32 you get a set of 4 inch active monitor speakers for the beginning producer. Because the speakers are active, you do not need an external amplifier. This means that you connect the monitor directly to your laptop or DJ controller. Thanks to the phase shifts in the tweeter, you can listen to a clear sound during production. Thanks to the compact design, the speakers fit easily into your room.

When it works, it works well, but breaks quickly (junk)

  • When these speakers work, they deliver a superb sound, better than comparable small PC speakers
  • Controls for volume, treble and bass on the front of the active speaker! (is rare with PC speakers)
  • Small enough to sit next to your screen on the desk without any problems
  • The internal amplifier is of questionable quality, breaks quickly

Had ordered a Hercules DJMonitor 42 Duo Pack to replace my older XPS 2.0 60 DJ Set from Hercules, the new speakers resemble the old ones like two drops of water. On the old one, the internal amp had started to flip after 6 years, often only one speaker working, or one silent and the other loud. When connecting the new set immediately a loud crackling / noise from the active speaker, the passive speaker did nothing. Checked all connections and ok, signal cables pulled out, still loud crackling when turned on, even with the volume knob all the way to zero. Conclusion, amplifier broken in a brand new set, straight out of the box on first use, unimaginable. It is clear to me, I will never buy anything from that brand again.
