Styled in a special edition white finish, the iLoud Micro Monitors by IK Multimedia comprise a pair of Bluetooth-powered studio-quality speakers in an exceedingly compact frame. Although they are designed to accommodate most iOS and Android devices through Bluetooth, they can also be sounded via a built-in 3.5mm auxiliary input or a pair of unbalanced RCA inputs.
The monitors themselves are comprised of two 3/4" tweeters and two 3" woofers (one tweeter and one woofer per monitor) and are augmented by an onboard 56-bit DSP processor designed to ensure a linear frequency response. On the rear panel of the left monitor, you'll find a three-band EQ section. This allows you to tune both speakers to any given listening environment. Due to the size, portability, and tuning options of these speakers, they will suit many different listening environments.
- Two 2-way biamped monitors
- Onboard DSP to ensure linear frequency response
- Four Class-D power amps
- 50W RMS total power
- High- and low-frequency adjustment switches
- Status/peak LED
- Desktop switch to aid in accurate response correction when placed atop desks
