Vonyx SMN40B - 4" Active Studio Monitors (Pair) - Sonic Precision for Creators and Multimedia
The Vonyx SMN40B speakers mark a turning point for those seeking professional-quality audio without the hassle. Meticulously designed to deliver honest and detailed sound reproduction, these active studio monitors are the perfect tool for both critical music production and enjoying an immersive home multimedia experience. Their engineering focuses on providing a flat frequency response , ensuring that what you hear is exactly what was recorded, without artificial colorations masking the final mix.
This pair operates using a highly efficient Master-Slave system: the high-fidelity amplifier is integrated into the left (active) speaker, which powers the right (passive) speaker via a simple connection. This eliminates the need for bulky external amplifiers, allowing for a clean and quick setup. Housed in a robust MDF cabinet, the SMN40B speakers not only look professional in black, but also acoustically outperform conventional plastic speakers, reducing resonance and delivering firmer, more defined bass.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an extra amplifier for them to work?
No, the system is active. The left speaker already integrates the amplifier needed to power both monitors.
What cables do I need to connect them to my computer?
The monitors have RCA inputs. You'll need a 3.5mm jack cable (typical PC output) to stereo RCA cable, or a dual jack/XLR to RCA cable if you're using an audio interface (signal cable not always included). The cable to connect one speaker to the other is usually included.
Are they suitable for small rooms?
Absolutely. Their compact size (155 x 180 x 225mm) and rear Bass Reflex design make them ideal for desks and small spaces where space is valuable but you don't want to sacrifice quality.
