IK Multimedia iLoud MTM MkII (single speaker - buy two)
This enthusiast-tier active monitor uses a dual-3.5-inch MTM array with built-in ARC room calibration, rated 48Hz-28kHz, and is sold as a single (buy two). That makes it a strong choice for small or untreated desks where the onboard correction can tame reflections. The dual 3.5-inch woofers and 48Hz floor mean big-room SPL and deep sub-bass are outside its remit.
