I didn't know I needed these until I watched this review.

I love when I want something for a long time and then Zeos reviews it and confirms that this thing is good

IK Multimedia is an Italian company and I’ve known them for over 17 years with their music related software and they are a solid company. They don’t do yearly upgrades, they just build them right the first time. That single speaker you saw is also fantastic and the stereo field is so good on that single box and you can plug your guitar, mic, bass, or keyboard to them and jam to your mp3 music. I love them and they ain’t cheesy! Great video!!

I just got these too and I love them as well! They're mainly marketed towards musicians and sound engineers on the go (especially musicians and engineers that are getting into the iOS music production scene), and they're definitely the perfect pair of monitors for that purpose because they're the only pair of micro monitors with a flat frequency response that goes down as low as 45hz. All the musicians and engineers that I've spoken to who use these all agree that they're the only pair of mobile monitors with 3" drivers that you can mix on and be confident about the results.

Hey, I wanna ask if you still own them and use them (and how long exactly)? If so, are they working fine or did they get faulty at some point? Is there idle hiss/bass port noise when playing low end content like some people say? Thank you in advance!

The trick to getting the kinks out of cables is to lay them out straight on a warm day in the sun for a few hours. it will take it right out. worked in professional audio production and this did the trick for most cables.

Zeos all you have to say if you mention ik multimedia is the iRig. Probably one of the best guitar interfaces for a computer ever made.

If you are wondering: The link cable is: 1.5m/59.1" (cable that interconnect left and right speaker)

The perfect small desktop speakers I was looking for. Found a used pair off ebay for $190(had to buy new cable which is an added $20 but good deal nonetheless)

This might be the best intro I have ever seen on a KZread video. And I'm being serious lol

Z Reviews: iLoud or Vanatoo T0 for desktop use purely for sound quality since you reviewed them both? I have iLoud for a week and the low end is bit too much at times on desktop. T0 seems to be sounding just right from your demos.

Was looking at the FPX7's yesterday, interested, looking forward for your review..

Had these speakers for a year now and they're still pretty great. The only shitty thing about them is the proprietary cable because it's a little too short and I had to buy replacement from the wires getting worn out when moving them around too much. Even when I got the speakers used the wire was already damaged so this is the second replacement I had to buy. I would definitely recommend buying a spare cable off their website.

Welp since on the other video there are 281+ comments imma repost it here to to hopfully get an answer question mark? I saw some of your reviews(new and old) and i must say: kudos to you(or good job) you are doing an amazing job With that out of the way~ if you had to compare pandoras "final" hope vi immagining and sennheiser 660s immagining wich would be the best? cuz im planning to get my first audiophile headphones and would like to know what heaphones give me the best sensation when listening to them

I use event tr6s, and I have two second listening options: Yamaha hs5 or iloud micro, which one would you recommend? Excellent video as always👍🏼

Just received a pair of these. Holy shit what an experience. Definitely recommend these little magic things :o

I enjoy your videos. I picked up a pair of these…wondering what you feel is the best connector. RCA or 1/8”

love the channel! please do the 8010's or the 8020's genelec?

What is the little projector you referenced? I'm looking for a portable theater setup!

Unrelated to these speakers, but have you ever reviewed a pair of Paradigms? If not, please? I love my “vintage” Titan v.3’s. They make a whole fleet of bookshelves. And has a house sound all to itself.

Awesome! For metal music, Iloud micro OR Vanatoo T0?

Here we are in 2024 and I can finally afford these and CONFIRM they are the BEST speakers you can buy for your desktop. Easy to set up with amazing sound and a very minimal footprint. One of the few products I would buy over again if I needed to.

i never thought that zeos would smack a speaker on the desk on purpose , that was funny

what amp are you running? I'm sick of my current amp clipping out when I try to play my PC speaker system at high volume! Please let me know. I love your spot on, real world reviews....love the profanity, because you're speaking my language...stay real! I currently have an ELAC B6/2 stereo desktop speaker system with a Polk audio PSW10 (powered) sub. What would you suggest?

I bought the Adam T8V‘s thanks to your review. Then I had to switch to a much shallower desk. They’re not going back, they will go in my studio. But these? Can play all three inputs at the same time, can be mounted on mic stands is so desired, can sound fucking great? These are the ones that my work desk needs.

These are what pros use on the road, doing mixes and editing in hotel rooms. I wish these was more competition in this market segment, but it's so niche that no one bothers.

Next month I’m moving to Mauritius for a year. I’ve just bought a pair of these to take with me. I hope they’re as good as you (and everyone) say they are.

I was looking for your channel as i wanted to see if you had review them, because i bought my last monitor speaker looking a your content.

The main purpose of these iLoud's is monitoring/mixing for pro audio on the go/traveling/remote location. For home? - JBL305p's.

Hi Zeos, how do they compare against the m200mkiiis ? Which ones do you like the most ? How do they sound at low volume ? Thanks

I just got my Hifiman Sundara's and let me say...baby stax. im 90% sure im going to be selling my L700 and 353x amp and all my other ones except my Audiofly af180's. Im getting 75-80% of everything i love with the L700 for 1/4 of the cost and more versatile with where and how I can use them. My first introduction to the world of audiophiles was sennheiser 558 (before that it was gaming headphones but hyperx cloud was really good to me at the time). My first major purchase was the Hifiman 400i which i modded all up and loved for a long time. Its pretty fitting for me to come right back around.

I have heard many opinions about the noise from the bluetooth module after turning on the speakers and while playing the sound from BT. Does this noise, assuming that I do not use BT transmission, disappear completely removing garbage from the audio path? In one of the videos you can see and hear how the noise lasts about 40 seconds after turning on the speakers. Do the speakers hiss when there is no sound?

Oh Wow, Z, check out the pending iLoud MTM speakers. IK Multimedia got really serious about these little monitors with the new version. They look like they'll be amazing!

Ohhhhhhhhh these sound like FUN! If I found them on sale I might grab them to take to DnD night so we have a kickass source for me or the GM to hook up to their laptop.

i kinda wanna see a setup with 4-6 of them 1 under each monitor in a tripple monitor setup and one above each monitor, you could just wire left to the top and bottom left monitor and right to the top and bottom right monitor, maybe do a center top and bottom speakers under the main monitor receaving mono

I've just got a pair, and am generally pretty happy with them apart from one thing, which it would be great if anyone else who has a pair could test... Sweeping a test tone around 50hz at moderate volume is producing a sound very far from what it should be - not normal distortion, but an extra noisy/comb-filtery vibration sound, which is more prominent than the actual signal... not sure how well I'm describing it, but it's not subtle. I first noticed it when listening to music (the first track of Alva Noto's Transform - admittedly, quite test-tone like music). With a test tone generator I find that as the frequency drops below 50hz, the sound quickly gets quiet which is fine and to be expected. It all seems to sound reasonably fine above that frequency as well, but around 50-60hz there is a very prominent problem. I suspect it may be a bit of a bug in the DSP, where something that should just be heavily attenuated ends up driving the speaker in a way that it can't handle at all well. (nb, I pasted this comment a few minutes ago then KZread seemed to duplicate it loads of times, was frantically deleting, refreshed the page and it didn't look as though I'd posted, so apologies if there's anything weird)

Graphs online make the Eris 3.5 seem V-shaped and with bass that rolls off way earlier, going -3 dB around 70+ Hz, while the iLouds are flatter overall, no V shape (but might have some undesirable narrow bump around 2k), and stay flat down to 50 Hz. So...
