Small size should mean easy integration with the tweeter and limited bass output. Might from the SB acoustics factory, or possibly the shop in China that put together the Micca COVO-S. The very narrow baffle leaves the door open for diffraction issues, because the tweeter is so close to the sides of the speaker. The deep seating keeps it from being too wide of a dispersion at the very top octaves, a common problem for little tweeters. The deep seating and heavy grill have more to do with the end resulting sound. The tweeter has a little waveguide on the face of the speaker, but that appears to be more aesthetic than any kind of functional acoustic device.


Because of these issues I will be using provided photography of the speaker drivers and cabinet internals. I get that these are portable studio monitors, but in my opinion you should still be able to remove the grills.Īlso, there are no visible fasteners on the speakers, so I can't take them apart. Ironically, the dent won't affect the sound quality as much as the grills. In defiance of this impenetrable metal mesh, one of these speakers has a dent in the dust cap. The multi-grill facemask array plastered over the drivers of these speakers are not removeable in whole or part. The iLoud Micro Monitor is IK's first attempt at a stereo pair of speakers, and based on specs they are trying hard to make a good first impression. I've never heard of IK Multimedia, but after some digging it seems like these guys make apps for mobile devices, and made a mono bluetooth speaker at one point. Black water for scale - The iLoud are itty bitty, no joke.
