Pro-grade Monitoring Starts Here
When choosing a reliable live-monitoring solution, many Sweetwater artists opt for the Sony IER-M500 universal in-ear monitors (IEMs), which deliver accurate sound reproduction and comfortable wear for a well-rounded sonic experience. Developed alongside professional monitoring engineers, the IER-M500 IEMs incorporate real-world artist feedback and years of research, adding to Sony’s legacy of pro-grade audio products.

Full-range accuracy, without the noise
Optimized for live monitoring, the IER-M500 IEMs deliver detailed, balanced sound with an extended frequency response from 10Hz to 40kHz, enabling high-resolution audio playback and accurate sound reproduction. Their refined internal structure enhances high-frequency reproduction, while the large acoustic chamber and 5mm drivers work together to produce deep, controlled bass, ensuring full-range monitoring accuracy. The IER-M500's fully sealed structure, reinforced by fitting supporters and noise-isolating ear tips, forms a reliable seal for excellent passive isolation and effective monitoring, even in high-noise environments. The strong isolation also allows for lower monitoring levels, helping protect your hearing through long, marathon sets. Whether you’re tracking harmonies or locking into a click track, the IER-M500 holds up to the demands of live performance.

The IER-M500 is outfitted with Sony’s proprietary ear-support system, with fitting supporters and ear tips that let you customize the IEMs to your exact preferences, ensuring a snug, fatigue-free, tailored fit. The coreless ear hangers naturally contour to your ears, and an integrated clip keeps your cables controlled and your movement unrestricted. The IER-M500's sleek, minimalist housing blends seamlessly into your onstage environment and is durable enough to withstand sweat and moisture buildup during regular live use.
