IK Multimedia MON-PRECISION-MTM-IN - iLoud Precision MTM (unit)

IK Multimedia iLoud Precision MTM (unit) - 2-way MTM monitor with 96 kHz DSP, built-in ARC and X-MONITOR control

The iLoud Precision MTM is IK Multimedia’s most advanced mid-tweeter-mid studio monitor: two 5” ultra-light coated paper woofers flank a 1.5” chambered textile tweeter , driven by Class-D bi-amplification and an internal 96 kHz DSP with linear phase crossover (8th order) . It offers an ultra-flat response from 45 Hz to 30 kHz (±1 dB) with bass extension down to 37 Hz (−4 dB) , and exceptional time coherence (0/+20° phase from 150 Hz). Built-in ARC auto-calibration —with included MEMS microphone—tunes the system to your room in seconds, while X-MONITOR software allows guided calibrations, stored profiles, and access to monitor voicings and emulations for improved translation. This reference is sold individually and includes isolation pods, an ARC microphone clip, and necessary cabling.

Main features

• High-resolution MTM architecture: 2 × 5” ultra-light mid-woofers + 1.5” chambered tweeter for defined mids and low-distortion highs.
• Power and Digital Control: 175W RMS per box (145W LF + 30W HF, short-term power data) with DSP at 96kHz and linear crossover at 1.9kHz .
• Response and level: 45 Hz – 30 kHz (±1 dB) ; extension 37 Hz (−4 dB) ; 105.5 dB SPL continuous (unobstructed, 1 m, 1 speaker) and 117/119 dB peak (unobstructed/semi-space).
• Improved phase and dispersion: 0/+20° phase from 150 Hz; ±50° vertical control (+65/−65° in Wide mode) to minimize table/ceiling reflections.
• Integrated ARC + X-MONITOR: Calibration with built-in MEMS microphone; in X-MONITOR you can guide the process, save multiple profiles and manage voicings /emulations.
• Placement controls: High-Pass (off, 35/50/65/80 Hz), LF (−10 to +6 dB), Desk (−10 to 0 dB), Mid (−4 to +4 dB) and HF (−6 to +6 dB) from the rear panel.
• Connectivity per unit: balanced XLR/¼″ TRS combo input, 3.5 mm TS minijack for ARC microphone, USB-B for X-MONITOR and AC 90–240 V~ network.
• Professional studio format: 45.9 × 18.5 × 28.2 cm ; 9.9 kg per unit, with isolation pods for mechanical decoupling.

Benefits for your workflow

• Reliable translation : Ultra-linear response and time consistency for faster, more confident mixing decisions.
• Adapts to your room : ARC reduces the acoustic influence of the environment; X-MONITOR saves profiles (e.g. table, stands, different positions).
• Wide sweet spot : controlled vertical dispersion and Wide option to maintain focus and image stability on small desks and in small rooms.
• Precise configuration : HPF filters and LF/Mid/HF/Desk contours to “tune” the response according to location and use (stereo, immersive, post).

Use cases

• Mixing and mastering in nearfield environments where linearity of ±1 dB and low hearing fatigue are required.
• Immersive / Multi-Channel Audio : Phase coherence and rear controls facilitate array matching (LCR, surrounds and overheads).
• Editing and content creation with instant calibration when changing rooms or mobile sets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it include a calibration microphone? Yes, it comes with an ARC microphone , clip, and USB-B↔USB-A cable.
Can I change voicing from the mixing desk? Yes, via X-MONITOR and also with the hardware remote control (optional accessory) to quickly alternate voicings or turn ARC on/off .
Sold as a pair? This reference is for a single unit . Two units are required for a stereo.
