The PMC-6 Active 2-Way Bookshelf Monitor Speaker delivers uncompromising reference-grade accuracy in a compact format, making it ideal for nearfield monitoring, smaller control rooms, and immersive audio systems. Sharing the sonic signature of PMC’s larger studio monitors, the PMC-6 offers exceptional resolution, dynamics, and mix confidence at any listening level. At its core is a bespoke 6-inch long-throw bass driver with 20mm excursion, engineered to work seamlessly with PMC’s ATL™ (Advanced Transmission Line) bass-loading and Laminair™ airflow technology. This combination provides bass depth, headroom, and low distortion that outperforms many larger 8-inch monitors. High frequencies are handled by a 1-inch precision soft-dome tweeter with a shallow waveguide for wide, tonally consistent dispersion and precise imaging. Each driver is powered by dedicated 200W ultra-low-distortion Class-D amplification, managed by a sophisticated DSP engine that automatically optimizes performance for portrait or landscape placement. Configuration is available via rear-panel controls or the browser-based SoundAlign™ network interface. The PMC-6 can be expanded into a full-range PMC-6 XBD system with a PMC subwoofer, extending low-frequency response down to 25Hz.

FEATURES
The PMC6 is packed with innovation and providing the same sonic signature as our renowned larger monitors, it’s ideal for smaller control rooms or for use in larger immersive systems, where its astounding resolution allows critical mix decisions to be made with absolute confidence.
With 20mm of excursion, the bespoke 6-inch bass driver is designed specifically to integrate with our latest ATL™ bass-loading and Laminair™ airflow technologies. The combination outperforms most 8-inch monitors, offering unparalleled bass extension, headroom, dynamics, and low distortion at all levels.
The high end is courtesy of a one-inch precision-built fabric soft-dome tweeter, with a shallow waveguide that creates wide, tonally consistent dispersion and rock-solid imaging.
Both the bass and treble drivers are precisely and individually controlled by a pair of 200W ultra-low-distortion, high-damping-factor Class-D amplifiers.
Whether in portrait or landscape placement, the PMC6’s sophisticated DSP engine automatically adjusts the crossover, ensuring optimum tonal accuracy, phase and imaging.
The monitor can be calibrated using the rear-panel controls or with PMC’s intuitive browser-accessible SoundAlign™ software.
The PMC6 can be upgraded by adding a PMC8 SUB to create a full-range, free-standing PMC6 XBD system. Activating the ‘XBD’ DSP mode ensures the perfect marriage of the two units, creating a clean LF extension down to 25Hz.
