VUE Audiotechnik hm-212 Dual 12-inch, Stage Monitor (requires V4)

No Compromises

The latest hm monitors is the subject to the same “No Compromises” design philosophy behind our flagship h-Class systems, capable to leverage the VUE's most advanced technologies for delivering an exceptional output and definition from a highly durable and compact package.

From their precision transducers with cutting-edge suspension and diaphragm components, to the companion rack-mount V4 Systems Engine, all of aspects of the monitors is capable to work in perfect harmony for delivering an unparalleled output and fidelity for the most demanding fold-back applications.

Rugged and Purposeful Enclosure Design

The precision-engineered transducers are enclosed in a extremely low-profile and rugged enclosure that's capable of ensuring a clear sight lines from the audience, or from camera, to performers, and it provides a large sweet spot for talent-whether directly over the downstage or monitor at the same time

Another ensured thing about this is the durability, that's a big thanks to a rugged, 12-step DuraCoat LX finish and a heavily braced, powder coated grill that's totally capable to survive the most dramatic lean-ins, stomps, or occasional “axe” bludgeoning.

Road Tested and Stage Ready

The hm-212 monitors are professionally designed as the industry's consummate high definition stage monitor systems. They benefit from Design Chief Michael Adams’ more than 30 years of working with world-class artists in demanding live and broadcast applications. Leveraging his extensive real-world experience, Michael has addressed everything from coverage and directivity, to the system and floor geometry. The goal? Is to make ensure of that the hm-212 for delivering an unsurpassed consistency, whether directly overhead (handheld), or upstage.

But all that only scratches the surface. Thoughtful cabinet design ensures that the hm monitors offer minimal visual intrusion between audience and performer. Their uniquely low profile is ensuring that coveted sight lines are preserved for set designers and video producers alike, also reducing required truck space when it’s time to pack up and go at the same time.

In addition, the hm monitors offer exceptionally clean and wide dynamic range – allowing monitor engineers to place solos or vocals in the front of the mix, exactly where they belong.

Finally, the hm-212 benefits from sophisticated DSP via the companion V4 Systems Engine. This ensures minimal reflections and optimal tuning to avoid the typical hurdles that plague less sophisticated monitor systems. Thanks to Michael Adams’ real-world perspective, hm monitors arrive from the factory fully ready to rock, with minimal tweaking.
