The Millenium DM-30 Drum Monitor is a low-cost active monitor that specialises in the amplification of e-drum sounds. A space-saving, coaxial two-way system is housed in a solidly processed wooden housing, in which the tweeter is positioned in the middle above a 10-inch woofer. The two drivers are powered by a 30-watt power amplifier, giving the speaker more than enough volume for use in the living room or in a small to medium-sized rehearsal room. The Millenium DM-30 is an inexpensive, compact, and functional solution if you are looking for a way to play e-drums without having to use headphones.
The Millenium DM-30 Drum Monitor offers two connection options for an e-drum module and a second playback device such as a smartphone. Thanks to the separate volume controls, the signals from both inputs can be conveniently mixed. The resulting sum is sent through an internal three-band equaliser with controls for bass, middle, and treble frequencies, which can be used to further optimise the sound. All of the controls are comfortably placed on the top of the housing and are therefore easily accessible at all times. In addition, the Millenium DM-30 offers a power-saving standby function that automatically turns off the monitor after 20 minutes of inactivity.
As a cost-effective personal monitor for electronic drums, the Millenium DM-30 drum monitor is suitable for all drummers who want to make their playing audible without any headphones and directly on the instrument – regardless of their skill level. Thanks to the space-saving design of the coaxial two-way system, the compact speaker can be placed relatively freely next to the drum stool or, if necessary, partially under the e-drum set. With its 30-watt power amplifier, the Millenium DM-30 is a good choice especially in smaller rooms and in situations where extremely high sound level reserves are not required.
Millenium is one of Thomann’s in-house brands and has been an integral part of the store’s range since 1995. More than 800 products – from drums and percussion through to accessories such as microphone stands, racks, and recording workstations – bear the Millenium label. These products are made by renowned companies who also manufacture products for other well-known brands. Since they are imported directly from the factory without any further distributors or sales companies, they can be sold at particularly attractive prices. Incidentally, one in every four Thomann customers has already purchased at least one Millenium product.
The compact design of the Millenium DM-30 Drum Monitor makes it particularly well suited for home use, and it also cuts a fine figure in the rehearsal room. It can be used above all in small rooms and at moderate volume levels. In larger rooms or at higher volumes, however, we recommend combining it with a PA system. This way, the DM-30 acts as a personal monitor for the drummer, while its second input can be used for the monitor mix from a mixer, for example.
