IK Multimedia - ILOUD MTM

Description

Reference-class, ultra-linear response

The first job of any studio monitor is to deliver accurate, uncoloured sound so you can trust your mixing decisions will translate across multiple playback systems. iLoud MTM uses the most advanced DSP techniques to provide total control over the speakers' performance, delivering results simply not obtainable with traditional analog designs.

Highs are neutral and defined, mids are clear and balanced, and lows are as balanced as ever. You can mix for hours with no ear fatigue, and the work you create will translate better than ever. And of course it's loud, with 100W RMS total power per speaker and 103dB SPL maximum sound pressure, delivering the proven volume the iLoud brand is known for.

Extended low-end to rival larger systems

iLoud MTM offers even bass response down to an astonishing 40Hz ideal for modern music styles. iLoud MTM debuts IK's new patent-pending Physical Response Linearization (PRL™) system, that uses a precise model of the enclosure's design, construction and materials, combined with electro-mechanical measurements of the real units, to correct the system's performance in real time. The result is a stunningly "firm," balanced and defined low end, to surpass the sound of speakers even twice iLoud MTM's size.

Deep bass is solid and firm - you won't believe sound like this comes from a monitor so small.

A new phase in accurate sound reproduction

iLoud MTM leverages IK's two decades of DSP experience to offer a true phase-coherent response across the useful frequency spectrum, for unbelievably realistic, natural sound. You'll hear instruments and dialogue as if it's happening live, discover more detail in your tracks than ever before, and stop wasting hours trying to EQ away issues with your mixes that were never really there.

Symmetrical MTM design for superior imaging and precision

iLoud MTM uses a midrange-tweeter-midrange symmetrical design, with a pair of 3.5" high performance woofers and one 1" high definition, back-chamber loaded tweeter, which provides ultra precise, defined, point source sound that can't be achieved by traditional 2-way systems at close distances. This means an even more natural, life-like sound, where the speakers "disappear" and you can focus on the music. It also minimizes the ear fatigue caused by traditional 2- or 3-way designs, where different frequencies arrive at your ear at different times. So you can mix longer, with less effort.

Instantly adjust to any room environment

iLoud MTM offers built-in acoustic self-calibration via the included ARC™ reference microphone, to automatically adjust the frequency response to its placement. Just set up the monitors, put the microphone in your preferred listening position, press a button and you'll instantly have a custom calibration for the sweet spot of your listening environment.

Plus of course you can adjust low-frequency extension and trim the LF and HF response to your taste.
