The original iLoud Micro Monitors certainly punched above their weight, sounding pretty impressive given their size. The new iLoud MTM Reference Monitors continue the compact desktop format, but are three driver design with two mids and a tweeter, they deliver 40Hz to 24kHz with an extremely flat linear phase response. It has built in ARC (Auto Room Correction) and comes with a calibration mic to ensure the optimum setup for the room.
