IK Multimedia iLoud Precision 5 MKII Studio Monitor (Single)
A compact professional active monitor designed to deliver reference-level accuracy in smaller studios, editing rooms, production suites, and immersive monitoring environments. It combines a 5" ultralight coated-paper mid-woofer with a 1.5" graphene-reinforced textile dome tweeter for fast transient response, detailed high frequencies, and controlled dispersion.
The internal Class-D amplification system provides 135 W RMS of total power, with 110 W dedicated to the low-frequency driver and 25 W to the tweeter. Its complete DSP-controlled architecture operates at 96 kHz, managing crossover, phase alignment, room calibration, and tonal adjustment. Despite its compact dimensions, the monitor delivers a reference response from 46 Hz to 22.5 kHz within ±1 dB and extends down to 39 Hz at -4 dB.
A 6th-order linear-phase crossover at 1.5 kHz helps maintain coherent timing between the drivers, providing accurate transient reproduction and stable stereo imaging. Continuous output reaches 101.6 dB SPL at 1 meter, with peak output reaching 113.3 dB, giving the compact cabinet substantial headroom for nearfield monitoring.
Built-in ARC room calibration allows the speaker to compensate for acoustic issues caused by the listening environment. ARC X software offers further control over calibration and monitor configuration, while onboard high-pass filtering and LF, desk, mid, and HF contour adjustments make it easy to adapt the response for console placement, wall proximity, subwoofer integration, or multichannel systems.
The reinforced HDF cabinet and high-performance vented design help reduce unwanted resonance while maintaining controlled low-frequency output. Its relatively compact footprint also makes it particularly well suited to desktop studios and multichannel installations where space is limited.
