IK Multimedia iLoud MTM speakers power setup’s sound
Redditor Katert (“Kat”) showcased the setup in a post entitled, “My endgame setup.” They run a 16-inch M1 Pro MacBook Pro open on the desk as a secondary display, though they said they might go to clamshell (closed) mode. And the laptop drives a large 42-inch LG C2 Series OLED smart TV.
So on Wednesday we focused on the big smart TV used as a display. And on Friday we cover the IK Multimedia iLoud MTM powered speakers sitting on stands on either side of the display.
iLoud MTM speakers by feature
And these iLoud speakers are suitable for computer use or as bookshelf speakers. But they’re of sufficient quality for use in a music studio, as well — even without a subwoofer. That’s because they carry deep bass sound all by themselves, according to the company.
So here’s how IK Multimedia lists the studio monitors’ impressive features:
- Designed as the ideal studio speakers, as well as desktop speakers or bookshelf speaker, iLoud MTM offers incredibly clear linear phase sound and deep, extended bass down to 40 Hz without a subwoofer.
- Built-in self-calibration via included ARC mic lets iLoud MTM adjust to any placement, for balanced sound on a music studio desk, studio equipment, even as desk speakers or gaming speakers for PC.
- Linear phase sound reduces ear fatigue for music production and mixing. Point-source performance delivers audiophile sound at any distance making these ideal desktop studio audio monitors
- Deep bass down to 40Hz lets iLoud MTM rival any big speaker, large studio monitors or computer speakers for desktop with powered subwoofer or pc speakers for desktop with subwoofer.
- Compact and easy to mount, these studio monitor speakers offer Atmos bass management and mount to mic stands or mounts for immersive audio that surpasses any PC sound bar or surround sound rig.
