Ik multimedia iLoud Sub

The iLoud Sub is aimed at home studios, content creators and immersive users who lack precise bass in a confined space. Compact, calibratable and powerful, it complements your near-field speakers without upsetting your installation or budget.

Thanks to ARC X calibration, it corrects both the subwoofer and your monitors for a clean, controlled and coherent low end. The result is a reliable listening experience, suitable for mixing, sound design and alternating headphone/loudspeaker work.

Features

ARC X calibration for subwoofer and speakers

iLoud Sub features ARC X technology: the software analyzes your room via the supplied microphone, then applies a DSP correction to the subwoofer and speakers connected to it. You get a more linear response, even in a small, untreated room.

Deep bass in an ultra-compact format

With a 6.5" aluminum woofer, two passive radiators and 160 W RMS power (200 W Peak), it goes down to 25 Hz while remaining unobtrusive under a desk or between two speaker stands. Ideal for adding seating without cluttering up your space.

Comprehensive studio connectivity for versatile use

The iLoud Sub offers XLR and RCA inputs/outputs for easy integration with your audio interface, existing monitors or immersive setup. USB-C input and Bluetooth® audio also make it easy to listen to references or multimedia content without rewiring your setup.

Simple control and smooth workflow

ARC X software (included) centralizes calibration and settings, without complicated menus on the cabinet. Once you've saved your presets, just switch on and get to work. Automatic standby limits power consumption when you're not using the system.

Designed for home studios and immersive systems

Able to track speakers from 3" to 7", the iLoud Sub is ideal for use with iLoud Micro Monitor, iLoud MTM or other proximity monitors. Its format and calibration make it a good choice for compact immersive setups on an intermediate budget.
