1. IK Multimedia iLoud Micro Monitor
You are probably wondering what to expect from this little sound wonder that fits right in the palm of your hand. Well, just wait, because this small monitor speaker will definitely amaze you.
These compact, sound-rich mini monitors have a frequency range of 45 Hz to a respectable 20,000 Hz. Of course, this is not an extremely high performance compared to other, larger monitors, but keep in mind that the sound is produced by a 0.75-inch tweeter and a 3-inch woofer, and it is completely linear.
The special bi-amped amplifier delivers 50 watts of power and has a peak output of 70 watts. This wattage, along with all the connections, is found in the left speaker, which you connect to the right monitor using a specially provided cable. This way, you have one active and one passive monitor. IK Multimedia has added a special Bluetooth module to the iLoud. Through this connection, you can wirelessly send your audio from your laptop, Macbook, tablet, or smartphone to the iLoud.
This allows you to enjoy excellent sound on the go, without needing to carry cables, interfaces, or other devices, so you can continue to refine your mix or production.
