PMC 10-4 XBD Active Reference Main Monitor System

The Definitive Form of Studio Authority

The PMC (Professional Monitor Company) 10-4 XBD represents the pinnacle of main monitoring, a massive, no-compromise system designed for the world’s most elite recording and mixing environments. Crafted for mixing engineers, mastering specialists, and film scoring stages, this dual-cabinet powerhouse draws on the architectural philosophy of the iconic QB1 to provide monumental scale, visceral impact, and forensic detail. Whether you are tracking a full orchestra or fine-tuning an immersive Dolby Atmos® mix, the 10-4 XBD ensures every production decision is made with absolute confidence.

Bass Reproduction with Zero Compromise
The 10-4 XBD achieves extraordinary dynamic headroom by employing eight ultra-long-throw 10-inch drivers operating in perfect unison. By distributing the load across two massive cabinets, the system maintains ultra-low distortion and an additional 3 dB of low-frequency headroom compared to standard configurations. This translates to a low-end that is colossal in scale yet remains nimble, tightly controlled, and entirely free of the power compression that plagues lesser systems.

Microscopic Detail and Phase Coherence
At the heart of the system is the PMC75v3 75mm soft-dome midrange and a 34mm tweeter, both integrated into the proprietary n-compass™ waveguide. This advanced engineering ensures unwavering phase coherence and a linear off-axis response, creating a vast "sweet spot." For the engineer, this means a natural, uncoloured soundstage where vocals and solo instruments can be placed with microscopic precision, ensuring your mixes translate perfectly to the outside world.

9.6kW of Intelligent Digital Power
Driving this ten-driver array is an astonishing 9,600W of Class-D amplification managed by the Master36 DSP unit and three Power20 units. This massive headroom allows for effortless dynamics even at extreme SPLs. Through the SoundAlign2™ interface, you gain network-ready control over precision digital crossovers and comprehensive room-alignment EQ, allowing you to tailor the monitors to your specific acoustic environment without ever compromising signal integrity.
