IK iLoud MTM MKII White – Compact Studio Monitors with ARC Mic (Pair)

The iLoud MTM MKII white pair gives you two compact, high-resolution studio monitors plus an ARC measurement microphone, so you can set up a calibrated stereo mix position on a small desk. It suits producers, mix engineers, content creators and composers who want accurate, full-range monitoring without large boxes, and who like a white studio.

What’s in the Pair

You get two complete monitors, each with its own power cord, USB-B to USB-A cable, tilting stand, horizontal support feet and locking key, plus one ARC microphone, a microphone clamp and a 2.5m XLR to 1/8″ TS cable for the mic. The measurement mic comes only with pairs and bundles, not with single speakers, which makes the pair the simplest way to get started.

MTM Design for Desktop Accuracy

Each speaker uses a Mid-Tweeter-Mid layout: two 3.5″ composite cellulose fibre mid-woofers either side of a 1″ back-chambered silk dome tweeter. This symmetrical arrangement keeps vertical dispersion tight, which reduces reflections from your desk, floor and ceiling, a common problem in small rooms. Combined with a linear-phase, time-aligned response, it keeps the stereo image focused and helps you work for hours without ear fatigue.

More Volume and Deeper Bass

A 100W RMS Class-D bi-amplifier in each monitor sends 70W to the woofers and 30W to the tweeter. The response is flat within ±2dB from 48Hz to 28kHz and extends to 36Hz at -10dB, and each speaker reaches 112.5dB peak SPL at 1 metre. Onboard DSP runs at 96kHz. That headroom makes the MTM MKII usable for loud production sessions, front-of-house mixing and immersive systems, not only quiet nearfield work.

ARC X Room Calibration

Plug the ARC microphone into each speaker’s mic input, measure from your listening position, and the correction is stored in the speaker. The MKII uses the calibration technology and algorithms from IK’s flagship iLoud Precision series. With ARC X software you also get:

• Monitor emulations that let you check your mix against other studio monitors, hi-fi systems and everyday playback devices
• X-MONITOR control of every speaker setting beyond the rear panel, including delay compensation between units for stereo imaging
• ARC X Immersive on eligible systems of four or more iLoud speakers

Set Up Anywhere

• Tilting stand: angle each speaker from 0 to 20 degrees so the tweeters aim at your ears on a desk.
• Horizontal feet: lay the speakers on their side under a screen or in a tight shelf.
• Mic stand thread: mount them on mic stands or boom arms behind a console, with no tools.
• Wall/ceiling bracket: an optional iLoud MTM bracket is available for overhead and wall installs.

Built for Immersive Rooms Too

A selectable 80Hz low-frequency cutoff makes it easy to pair the MTM MKII with an iLoud Sub, and the speakers are compatible with the Dolby Audio Room Design Tool for planning Atmos layouts. Start with this pair for stereo and add more MTM MKII speakers later.

Connections (Per Speaker)

Each monitor has a balanced XLR/TRS combo input, a 1/8″ TS input for the ARC microphone, a USB-B port for ARC X and X-MONITOR, and an AC power socket (90-240V).

Who Is It For?

• Producers and mix engineers working on small or shared desks
• Content creators and podcasters who want accurate monitoring in a white setup
• Composers and post-production users who need reliable translation in untreated rooms
• Studios building an immersive system on a budget

If you want bigger drivers and more low-end weight for a dedicated mix room, look at the larger iLoud Precision range instead.

MTM MKII vs the Original MTM and the iLoud Precision 6 MKII

Compared with the original iLoud MTM, the MKII has improved drivers, roughly double the onboard processing power, higher maximum SPL, deeper bass, ARC calibration derived from the Precision series and full X-MONITOR integration. The iLoud Precision 6 MKII is a larger 6.5″ two-way monitor with 150W per speaker for dedicated mix rooms; the MTM MKII is far more compact and portable.

FAQ

Does the pair include the ARC measurement microphone?

Yes. The pair includes one ARC microphone, a clamp and a 2.5m mic cable. Single MTM MKII speakers do not include the mic.

Is the white version any different from the black one?

Only the finish. The drivers, amplification, DSP, ARC X features and accessories are the same.

Do I need a subwoofer?

For most desktop mixing, no, since the response extends to 36Hz at -10dB. For film, club music or immersive work, use the 80Hz cutoff with an iLoud Sub.

What do I connect the speakers to?

The left and right outputs of an audio interface or monitor controller, using balanced XLR or TRS cables. The USB port is used for ARC X and X-MONITOR.

Can I use them on their side?

Yes. The included horizontal support feet let you lay each speaker horizontally.

Can they be mounted on walls or stands?

Yes. Each speaker has a mic stand thread underneath, and an optional iLoud MTM wall/ceiling bracket is available.
