What's Next For The Modular Upgradable Monitor?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มี.ค. 2024
- The Modular Upgradable Monitor is a monitor that can grow alongside you and your studio, allowing for component customisation offering enhanced detail, transient response and clarity.
The MUM monitors use the best components available to bring a high-end studio monitor to the world for around half the price of the competition, due to our direct sales model.
No distribution margin, no retail margin. Just great speakers, straight to you.

Our MUM-8 has just received an excellent review in SoundOnSound - link in the description - but there was one gripe. So it's time for us to address that.
Congratulations on the SOS review, gents! I appreciate that you take Phil Ward's feedback to heart and investigate if the DSP can be optimized further. Also, what's the "untidiness" around 7 KHz about? Is that an edge diffraction issue?
Huge respect for being told a problem and deciding to fix it. I hope to see you go a long way!
Thank you!
what's the issue? and what's the fix? I NEED TO KNOW!! :D
@@hellcat5music it was the tonality, the fix is probably gonna be dsp which is great news!
You guys should collaborate with Erin's Audio Corner, send him a pair of units so he can review those.
Brilliant idea, do it !
@PresentDayProduction
Yes. I'm sure you blokes already know, but Erin Hardison @ Erin's Audio Corner has the Klippel NFS and has been using Klippel Analyzer products for driver & loudspeaker testing for well over 10 years. He has a very good relationship and rapport with the gentlemen at Klippel, as well as Purifi.
He also has extensive experience with complete multi-way/multi-driver loudspeaker and subwoofer system tuning via high end multichannel DSP for over 10 years as well.
He has interviews on his channel with the gentlemen at Klippel as well as Purifi, and has tested most of the Purifi drivers.
For reference, I've been using both the 6.5" & 8" Purifi drivers as well as the BlieSMa T34B & T25B beryllium tweeters in my own high end DIY home & car audio systems for several years now with high end multi-channel DSP and amplification, and agree that they are perhaps the finest drivers that are publicly available.
Of course, there are other professional facilities in the U.S. such as Warkwyn and Red Rock Acoustics who provide Klippel NFS and other loudspeaker and drive unit testing as well. There are facilities in the U.K. & E.U. that you are obviously aware of as well.
Side note:
My only reservations with your MUM-6 system when it's combined with the lower stand/bass cabinet module + swapping the upper 6.5" midwoofer for the BlieSMa dome midrange is the increased Center-to-Center spacing of the dome midrange relative to the tweeters when the adapter rings for the dome mids are installed, unless the adapter rings are designed with an offset mounting cutout which keeps the dome mid closer to the tweeter.
With the increased C-t-C spacing between the dome mid and the tweeter, the crossover must be carefully considered as it will be difficult to achieve smooth and even vertical response and vertical directivity through the crossover region without encountering lobing/comb filtering effects when you are too far above or below the reference axis.
Cheers
That would be amazing!
45 minutes of experience.... Ok, you are really quick with this project. Well done guys.
Day one customer here, best monitors and customer service on the planet.
Thank you so much for sticking with us right from day one! Single-digit serial number MUM-8 owner right here! ^^^
that 2 way to 3 way part got me boys... these look absolutely immense
45 minutes years. Same same... Great job guys!
Amazingly done, you can see my melting face as one of the listeners at the beginning of the video 😂 can’t wait to put my hands on a pair!
The fact that you can upgrade AND TWEAK THE DSP and roll it out to existing customers is absolutely phenomenal. There’s no hoping to try and wait for a second hand pair to become available, I don’t think anyone’s ever gonna sell theirs, cause they can get better with time.
Thanks Alessandro!
Yes, fully upgradable over time, and the DSP updates will be FREE!
Magic! Can't wait to get mine! Well done guys!! Fantastic work
Congratulations! So cool to put such a great product in the market with such transparency.
Congrats!
It's crazy what you guys have been able to develop in such a short time! Congratz on the excellent SOS review!
Thank you!
Can't wait to get mine!! 😍
I love the look. Never even heard of a modular monitor (unless you count all of the KRK & HST spare parts in many studios). lol Watching the growth with excitement. Salute
Excellent video boys.
I love this, congrats gents 🎉
This is all very impressive! I’m a fan, guys! Keep up the amazing work ❤
Thank you Niall!
Congrats James and Mark on the review and awesome adventure! Probably the most down to earth guys you'll get to know! Really excited for y'all and can't wait to see your monitors in many studios around the world!
Thanks Oscar! Can’t wait to bring a pair to your studio one day 😜😜😜
Hello Mark and James
Thats a cracking review in SOS i have a feeling you guys are going to be run off your feet.
Amazed how you have managed to pull it off and i have really enjoyed watching the journey.
Just put my Mum on Ebay so fingers crossed for some Mum 6's
Hahaha thank you so much! Thanks for watching :) Keep your Mum safe!
Intriguing indeed, well done.
well done guys!!
About time! Been waiting for this
These guys are so incredibly transparent. I'm currently looking at the Adam A8H and the Neumann KH 310A. The MUM-8 would be my preferred choice if I could afford it. The MUM-6 looks like a great, affordable option for me though. When I get to the UK, I'll be looking to audition all three pairs of these monitors, and I'm incredibly excited about it.
Congrats to you guys! I've been following you guys' work for 4 years now, and it's great to see you've made such strides. Looking forward to even more from you in the future. Cheers
Thank you so much for your support over the years! ❤️ feel free to email us at info@presentdayproduction.com if we can help in any way :)
They are really, really great!❤️🔥
I really ❤❤❤ what you guys are doing. It is really a dream come true that finally a modern approach is being implemented in speaker design and I have spread this word as far out as possible that all relevant producers know about it. More power to you!
Thanks so much for sharing it!
Was lucky enough to hear these back at GearFest 2023, and I was blown away by what I heard! You guys have done an impeccable job!
Thank you!
As success comes, I shall get these monitors. I've been following your journey for a long time and I'm genuinely sold. Especially for the fact that it's sealed, so the time decay is almost instant which a lot of people overlook these days.
Nice work chaps, it's been one hell of a journey.
Cheers Koss! Great to see you here
... fully active 3-way... with your mum... Mark! That was no accident.
Congrats guys all your hard work is going to be revealed …. Finally - you absolutely earn it
Cheers Rene!
Congratulations
Great work guys your truly doing a great job :)
Thank you!
I want a pair of these! Excellent work!
Feel free to get in touch at any time :) if you have any questions, I’d be more than happy to help.
Great speakers! Looking forward to testing the MUM6s. I like the “MUMbassador”‘idea too👌
Cheers Ed!
This is awesome
Yeah, can't wait for the Klippel meaursing video!
You guys had ATC and PSI and a lot more reviewed and built your own one‘s. That‘s real designation…How would you compare them against PSI A23/25‘s?
I would LOVE to see White Sea Studios do a snake oil video on these, especially I would like to know his mileage vs his custom Quasar monitors, just for curiosity sakes :)
We intend on sending him a pair for review soon
Sick af
Would be good to have a MUM-6 that had the amp separate for Atmos setups... much easier to just send one cable and that would of course be lighter too... helps with nerves of wondering if the speakers will suddenly pull out from the ceiling... something I have just thinking about doing this to my ceiling... I rent so it's quite a bigger risk as well as I do not have much options to add support lol
Nothing quite like upgrading from an active 2-way to an active 3-way.
Send this to Erin (Erins audio corner) as well for in-depth measurement please!!
I want a pair of these. I still can't get my head round the surround of the woofer. But I totally trust that you understand sound and have put a lot of research into their production. I'm still wondering about 10 inch versions seeing as you did a video about 10 inch woofers. When I get the money you'll hear from me.
We have indeed put lots of research into getting these monitors right! Feel free to drop us an email at info@presentdayproduction.com and we’ll give you loads of info on anything you’d like to know. We’re working on the MUM-10, too, that’s in the works!
After you figure out the final crossover settings with the Klippel you should do a long life / high end version with discrete electronic crossovers and class AB amplification - something serviceable an repairable.
I'm a festool lover. However, as I see it now the glue is going to be doing a LOT of the binding work and the domino's support alignment. A decent jig and normal dowels would do the job just as well, but with a lower price point if you are sub-contracting any works out when dealing with over seas markets.
Personally, I couldn't care less about tonal balance. We all have our room correction software anyway! (I use Acourate for example.) Why do we want a flat line in a space that doesn't exist anywhere in the real world? I prefer something that offers phase and stereo accuracy over everything else. Well done guys! Looking forward to getting a pair sometime.
@orphic-trench
It's always best to start with an anechoically neutral, smooth, and flat response from the speaker system, especially in relation to providing for smooth and even horizontal & vertical Directivity. Note that that flat/neutral anechoic response does NOT equate to flat IN-ROOM response which should follow more closely to an accepted in-room target curve.
The Directivity is most important (on-axis response/direct sound vs. off-axis response/reflections) because if the the on- & off-axis response isn't similar, when you try to use EQ to correct the On-Axis response, now the Off-Axis response will be off and not linear, and vice versa.
But when you have smooth and even Directivity, the On-Axis AND Off-Axis response track Together and are very similar/linear, and this will allow you to EQ for your room and/or personal preferences without any non-linearities or frequency-dependent anomalies. Look up the ERDI (Early Reflections Directivity Index).
This is the problem that the SOS reviewers picked up on in regards to the tonality/spectral balance issues, and is why Mark & James need to have the MUM monitors tested with Klippel's Near Field Scanner (NFS) in order to help properly address the issue.
its preferred flat for mixing and mastering as that would translate best across many many other speakers i would assume
@@TechnoAssassin-vx6zf It is never flat when you listen in an actual room in the real world. It doesn't matter how flat it is in an anechoic chamber. Plus, if you have DSP, then one more reason not to care. :)
@@orphic-trench
That's just it! ...You DO NOT want to have FLAT *IN-ROOM* RESPONSE!!!
You want the speakers to have FLAT *ANECHOIC* RESPONSE. And if you reply saying, "Well, I don't listen to my speakers in an Anechoic Chamber, so it doesn't matter", you have simply failed to learn and understand why this is so important and you don't understand the principles of loudspeaker design and acoustic science.
Speakers that are designed to measure "FLAT" as well as have very similar On-Axis & Off-Axis Frequency Response overall in an ANECHOIC environment will sound the most neutral & accurate (NOT FLAT!) in the Widest Variety of real-world listening environments.
If you start out with Speakers that are already NOT reasonably FLAT in an Anechoic environment, OR if those speakers do not have Smooth & Even Directivity/Dispersion between all of the individual drivers, the more work it will take to correct them to provide good IN-ROOM response and you will have more trouble getting your mixes to translate.
In addition, the image Focus & Placement will suffer and you will experience Frequency-Dependent image shifting/wandering and lack of pinpoint focus.
Your In-Room response should at least somewhat follow a known in-room Target Curve which will allow for excellent translation across the board. Otherwise, some specific frequencies will tend to "Mask" detail and neutrality in other ranges.
The "Flatter" and "Smoother" the ANECHOIC Frequency Response & Directivity is, the better they will actually sound In Your Room before resorting to Room Correction.
IF the speakers exhibit poor Frequency Response AND/OR poor Directivity matching ANECHOICALLY, the less effective Room Correction or EQ will be because the Direct On-Axis FR will not match the Off-Axis FR...So, when you or your software/measurement mic try to correct for the On-Axis Response, it will then throw off the Off-Axis response, and you will be endlessly chasing your tail.
Look up the 'Early Reflection Directivity Index" or "ERDI" for short.
If you really want to learn more and understand why, pick up the latest edition of the AES publication by Dr. Floyd Toole, PhD., titled "Sound Reproduction: The Acoustics and Psychoacoustics of Loudspeakers and Rooms".
Another industry standard reference is Vance Dickason's "Loudspeakers Design Cookbook".
IF the speakers start out with Flat/Smooth/Neutral Frequency Response ANECHOICALLY, the easier it will be for room correction like Acourate to adjust them to both Your Room AND Personal Preferences.
@@orphic-trench im not saying its flat in the real world. But haviing it flat when mixing and mastering will give the best results in real world use
😱 👍you guys gotta send at least one monitor to ASR for review 👏🏽
I was curious about the price. & 5 grand for the big bois!
Nice!
A little out of my range but if I ever can then these will be on my list
Very very nicely done!!!
Little remark: at 0.19 sec with the closeup of the purifi, there is a scratch (or is it a flop hair?)
Thank you so much!
And yes, it’s a flop hair 😂 I tried removing it with VFX to save re-filming everything, but instead found more value in actually getting the video finished!
Thank you for watching!
Soooo when is Claudio (Dr Mix) getting his pair in bright red?
Saw people mention Erin’s audio corner, but Amir at ASR might review them too!
Erin’s ok and objective. But Amir, naaa, his devoted worship followers that don’t have a clue did cut PDP short because of their claims to be maybe the “best studio monitors” and not showing the measurements for us all. ASR members do care much for measurements ya know.
Auntie Jazz and square chined Mark strike again. I would love to hear what Wytse Gerichhausen of the White Sea Studio make of the MUMs.
Could you do a video on how to change the orientation to be lying down?
Also there are no gallery of the different colours you offer anywhere is there?
Well deserved
First like 🎉 well done guys on the review!!
How dare you
The new DMAX Audio monitors (P81) will also use these speakers (Purifi PTT8.0X08-NAB). However, I am not sure that they will be made so well from an aesthetic point of view. But they will be much cheaper.
Hey guys. I am still hanging on to my ATC SCM19a in my living room but i have to say I am really intrigued by the MUM-8.
Will you/ have you t inkered with more domestic configurations like D’Appolito or twin woofers on the sides for force cancelling?
We haven’t yet done any cardioid tinkering, but the future has many possibilities! We already have lots of future products in sight!
I want to use them in my home, living room. Can you tailor the DSP for that?
Thank you for the video. Do you have the diamond tweeter in the pipeline or has it passed away?
It's definitely coming! We'll be announcing that very soon, keep an eye out! You would be very welcome to sign up to our email list (NO SPAM, EVER), at www.presentdayproduction.com/signup , and our Discord at www.presentdayproduction.com/discord
"You can always trust your mum". lol so funny
The bass drivers are different from the early models. Did you have to change the cabinet to match the Thiele Small parameters?
Well spotted - yes we redesigned the cabinet and now use exclusively Purifi PTTx drivers. No more Dayton Audio. The cabinet is optimised for the Purifi.
Looks like you need to lower the tweeter level a couple of dB to start with. Remember all of us who asked for Klippel data from the get go? At least you finally came around - designing a modern monitor without anechoic data to support design decisions is just odd. That 5k dip in the FR is wrong and should not be there. Something inherently problematic with the baffle layout it would seem, but could be his measurement environment that creates a cancellation, though it is not likely.
But no doubt you are offering bang for the buck, good job, we just need an MKII ;)
@vilddyr
Yep. And Center-To-Center driver spacing, driver placement on baffle, and baffle step compensation are important considerations combined with the associated crossover implementation that I believe were overlooked in regards to overall amplitude response and especially smooth & even DIRECTIVITY matching between drive units.
The Spinorama and ERDI data from the Klippel NFS measurements will reveal the issues in this regard, but as you mentioned, this should have been done during the development stage. Unfortunately, as relative noob "speaker designers" Mark & James didn't know what they didn't know.
I would actually hold off on purchasing these (and I am) until this is sorted, as it will most likely require a new front baffle design with modified driver placement as well as significant crossover adjustments to account for the changes.
I expect this to be an issue with the MUM-6 as well when the 6.5" midwoofer is swapped out for the Dome Midrange using the adapter ring when the MUM-6 is combined with the lower bass cabinet/module.
I'm very curious to see Klippel NFS resutls. Please publish the full spinorama data and/or send one to somebody like Erin's Audio Corner for independent tests. I like everything about what you're doing at least conceptually...except that I don't really get on with ATCs and have no point of reference for how these would actually sound. I also think it's interesting that you guys seem to have subs in place but don't offer them. I get it, the -10dB point is only 26Hz and you need the LFE channel for Atmos. But...curious about the decision not to sell the sub as well.
We definitely intend to sell subs, as discussed in last night’s MUM Q&A :) we are working on them at the moment and will be selling them very soon. There will be a 6 inch, 8 inch, and 10 inch, most likely in passive radiator form.
I’m a sucker for SPDIF
We've got you covered then ;)
are you going to make the subs available as well? :)
Yes! We are working on them for a possible summer time release
did you make yourself a centre speaker witht those specs? the one on the far right of mark has the cones aligned vertically, whereas the othe one has them offset vertically??
Yes the centrally-aligned one is the centre speaker version
Do they throw the bass quite far?
I like to feel the punch 🥊
They definitely do! They work well in almost all sizes of studio!
I would love to have a speaker with dual tweeters and a switch to select a more accurate and a more rolled off. I have a pair of 50 year old transmission line speakers with soft domes and old caps. They are not highly resolving anymore if they ever were but they are smooth. My parents have new BW speakers with very accurate treble and they resolve like crazy but also drive me crazy with bad source material. I would like to switch presentation depending on what I listen to and how.
@marcusm5127
This could be and should be accomplished by using the existing single tweeter but simply adding a separate DSP preset with a more rolled-off HF response or negative high-shelf filter vs the neutral/accurate response. Most DSPs such as the units that Mark & James are employing in the MUM Monitors have anywhere from 2 to 4 programmable/switchable DSP presets or "tunes".
The majority of professional active studio monitors already incorporate low frequency and high frequency +/- "trim" controls which typically apply a +/- 3dB High-Shelf or Low-Shelf Filter to increase or reduce the low-end or treble response.
The better studio monitors have several increments for these controls, such at +/-1dB, +/-2dB, +/-3dB, as well as a similar wide-Q filter with the same settings for the midrange response.
Using two tweeters would add non-linearities (and undesirable comb filtering if both tweeters are playing at the same time).
I’m not sure we’ll follow the two-tweeter idea, but just adding to the above comment that we have full user-definable parametric EQ onboard
I am looking this year to build a 3 room commercial Studio with Atmos this year in Toronto! Do you have distribution in Canada?
We sell worldwide. We’ll have some listening spaces in Montreal within the coming weeks too.
Feel free to drop us an email and I’d be glad to help! Thanks so much :)

You should send some to amir from audio science review, he has a klippel nfs
You need a Flop Cat version.
Agreed!
Will there be a MUM 10 with the Purifi 10" PTT10.0X04-NAB-01 driver? What about a passive version with the ability to upgrade to a more expensive active pack later, ATC offer this on their models.
We are working on the MUM-10 - the design was finished as of this week! It’ll be announced soon, we are tying up some final features. Keep an eye out!
We have no plans for a passive version at the moment because of the unannounced features which will be a game-changer for the MUM-10.
I was a naysayer but now I see the light.
Oo, what’s been the revelation? I’m keen to know!
why not bamboo?? it is actually sustainable as it grows beck very fast like grass (it’s type of grass) and super inert. valchromat is mostly wood.
Well… for a future product we can certainly look!
Is it possible to see some photos of them if side mounted?
With the tweeter moved to the side mounting?
Yep, we’ll add some to the website. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@PresentDayProduction Nice one!!!
I'm from France and I have to say that I would be very interested by a pair of Mum 6... Thinking a lot about my monitors recently and I don't know if I should upgrade or not
Feel free to drop us an email at info@presentdayproduction.com and we can answer your questions to see if it’s a good fit for you. :)
OMG!! These are SO HOT! Like Fire! Definitely the monitors that a hellcat would buy! These are like audio spaceships ... SPACESHIP!! I need orange ones...
Thanks hellcat buddy!
What's the round hole covered by a plate next to the mid driver for? It's not great aesthetically.
It’s to allow the tweeter to be above the mid when the speakers are used in landscape orientation
Where does the massive markup for different colors come from?
Black and light grey are ordered in in larger quantities as they’re the most popular colours and so we get larger discounts on the material. Not only that, but light grey requires the least finishing
He's not wrong that they have over 45 minutes experience... 🤷♂
I am very happy for you that you created these, but on the other hand, I am a little sad, that your series of testing monitors might be over.
We’ll see what’s possible for the future :)
I'm sure that they could still review other monitors, but they may be a bit biased now. :p
We will always try to be as unbiased as possible, as we always have, but yes we do accept that reviewing monitors will require a slightly different approach in order to maintain neutrality.
Do yall have anyone in LA who have a pair of MUM8s we can listen to?
Floorstanders for the domestic market?
We are working on exactly this for the near future :)
AAAAAARRRGGH!!! I can’t take not having the money for these speakers! I have to figure out how to get there before I burst with GAS 😜
It’s not really about how good they’re supposed to sound or how brilliant the modular concept has been executed either, though I wouldn’t want to own something that was shit. I have been following you guys from I think before you even called yourselves Present Day Production (am I right in thinking that you either had a different name or a different channel back in 2019 or early 2020?) and I am so very proud of not only what you have created but how hard you have worked and how exemplary you have conducted yourselves this whole time. I know that sounds a bit cringe, but there you go; lots of awkward pride and love from here
That’s very kind, and thank you for following us for all these years! Support like this really does mean the world to us, and makes it all worth it!
💕 💫
And what about the subs in your video, what are those?
Those subs were temporary designs we made for ourselves. We’re looking to release Purifi-based designs in the near future!
I mean you say linear excursion, but from the footage, the cone's action is conducive to non-linear excursion. You can see how the cone looks tilted upon the action of the piston system. This is not good as it can cause the sound to become distorted - although I would presume the programme is being played back at a much louder volume than what the system is really intended to output?
I think this is actually part of the effect of the rolling shutter of our camera - when filming it under certain visual conditions it is indeed linear
@producermathew
I assure you that this is just an effect of the rolling shutter effect of their video camera, just like watching the vibration/movement of the strings on an acoustic upright double bass in some videos.
As the image is "scanned" by the video camera's digital sensor, the scanning starts at the top and proceeds line-by-line to the bottom of the sensor and image frame.
Due to the time it takes for this scanning process to traverse from the top of the sensor or image frame to the bottom, during these few milliseconds in time, the cone has moved. For instance, when the scan from an individual frame starts, the cone may be in the inward position, but at the end of the scan, the cone may be in the outward position just a few milliseconds later.
When all of these individual frames are viewed consecutively as a moving video, it gives the illusion that the cone is "tilted" or skewed during its excursion, when in fact it is just an artifact of how the image sensor in the video camera is capturing the image. ;) ...just as Mark or James stated. Look up "Rolling Shutter Effect".
These drivers have been extensively tested by independent 3rd parties and proven to have among the best possible linear xmax and lowest distortion of any diaphragm/cone based speaker ever produced.
I use both the Purifi 6.5" (7") PTT6.5 and 8" PTT8 drivers in my high-end DIY home and car audio systems with the best sound I've ever experienced using many of the best high-end drivers for years...Scanspeak Revelator/Illuminator, Accuton, Dynaudio Esotar, SB Acoustics, Audio-Technology, C-Quenze, etc.
I assure you there are no issues with these drivers. The cone is moving in & out perfectly straight or linear. They are legit.
Video is lit. Much better than crypto

Congratulations guys!! I love my Mum 8’s. Super speakers!!!
@@JustPlayitc00l Wait for the Klippel NFS measurement results to be completed as the front baffle layout/driver placement may need to change a bit to improve the FR anomalies that SOS mentioned as related to their directivity and ERDI, and the crossovers will need to change to account for that as well.
I bet they are very good but the price….. oh lord al mighty! For their first product??
If you compare it to what they compete with, they’re half the price of the competition for the same or better performance.
We have 100% customer satisfaction so far, in over 23 countries, and so we are confident in their pricing and ability.
These are high-end monitors and are priced as such - they cost US a fortune to build
So pretty safe to say a diy kit will never happen?
For now, very likely not, at least for the MUM series. We decided against a kit about 18 months ago - however there MAY be a speaker in future, a different model, which will be a kit. We are always working on new ideas, pretty rapidly, and so who knows where the future will take us!
Why do you claim using only the highest quality parts when you all the parts in reality it's a budget friendly approach? I don't see what is so special about some generic class D 250 watt module, a simple MDF box, those drivers with average magnet drive system, a simple cross-over ... there are hifi brands who even custom build their own drivers at this price point, quick example from my head would be the Børresen X1. This project attempts to fit a cost-value-approach with standard parts available on the market but there is nothing that makes them special. Loudspeakers at dealers are mostly sold with generous discounts with tons of competition, hardly the twice as expensive claim.
