IK Multimedia iLoud Micro Monitor 2 Upgrade - Active Desktop Monitor (Pair)

IK Multimedia iLoud Micro Monitor 2 Upgrade is the second generation of the compact iLoud Micro Monitor reference speakers, sold as a pair: one active speaker and one passive speaker joined by a Speaker Link cable. A two-way design with a digital linear-phase crossover, a 3-inch composite fibre woofer and a 3/4-inch silk dome tweeter is driven by four Class-D amplifiers delivering 50 W RMS. It fits on the desk next to a MIDI keyboard and a laptop.

Reference monitoring over one USB-C cable

The USB-C digital input connects the speakers straight to your computer, with no audio interface or extra converters. The same port handles firmware updates and ARC X control. You also get an analog RCA input and Bluetooth with AAC and SBC codecs, so the same speakers check your mix and play your playlist.

The Upgrade version for existing ARC users

The Upgrade version comes without the MEMS microphone and without ARC software. It is meant for people who already own an ARC licence, including one bundled with other IK products, and want a new pair of speakers. Room correction in ARC X then needs your own licence and a measurement microphone. If you do not own an ARC licence, choose the version with the microphone in the box. New drivers, a rear bass-reflex port and lower-distortion amplifiers are meant to give a clearer midrange and tighter bass than the first generation.
