IK Announces iLoud Sub

A compact studio subwoofer powered by ARC with auto setup and room correction

IK Multimedia is proud to announce the iLoud Sub, which redefines what a studio subwoofer can be, delivering deep, accurate, and impeccably controlled low-end performance in the smallest footprint on the market, while also significantly enhancing the sound of satellite speakers.

iLoud Sub is the only subwoofer that automatically calibrates itself and any connected monitors to the room, regardless of brand, providing balanced, accurate, and reliable sound across the entire audio spectrum, from bottom to top.

Powered by ARC X’s advanced DSP, iLoud Sub gives modern music producers complete confidence in their mixing decisions and hi-fi enthusiasts the opportunity to experience music exactly as it was meant to be heard.

iLoud Sub at a Glance:

  • Smallest footprint on the market: Fits in any studio — no rearranging required
  • 25 Hz deep bass extension: Experience the full low end of modern productions
  • ARC X room correction: Perfect system alignment with zero guesswork
  • Automatic setup: Effortless studio integration and subwoofer calibration
  • Integrates with existing monitors: Automatically works with any monitor brand
  • Controlled, accurate, musical low end: Mixes translate flawlessly everywhere

Big Bass. Smallest Footprint. Zero Compromise.
iLoud Sub is engineered to deliver full-range clarity and depth while maintaining perfect balance within the listening environment. Taking up only a small fraction of the size of traditional studio subwoofers, it integrates naturally into any workspace, providing powerful low-end extension down to 25 Hz with a tight, accurate, and musical response that can be relied on for every mix.

ARC X: The Key to Better Mixes
iLoud Sub features ARC’s advanced algorithm that seamlessly analyzes the acoustic environment and perfectly calibrates the main monitors. Regardless of the make and model of the left and right speakers, ARC X software ensures they sound flat, balanced and free of any acoustic interference so mixes translate flawlessly, from bottom to top.

This means:

  • The most natural, flat and balanced sound across the entire listening spectrum
  • Effortless integration and correction with any monitor brand, not just iLouds
  • Mixes translate better across all playback systems, from cars to theaters

Just connect, run ARC X, and setup is complete. iLoud Sub offers the easiest way to achieve a truly professional monitoring experience.

The Smartest Alignment Ever
Modern music requires absolute precision in the low end. iLoud Sub premieres ARC X’s newest feature: automatic subwoofer setup. ARC X also accurately calibrates and time-aligns iLoud Sub, expanding the frequency range of any monitoring system to uncover hidden depth and clarity without disrupting the balance of the full setup.

The result:

  • Every detail in kicks, bass lines, and sound design comes into focus
  • Low-end balance becomes a matter of accuracy, not assumption
  • Enjoy fuller low end that doesn’t overpower or throw off mix translation

No more guesswork. No more endless revisions. Just clarity, confidence, and mixes that move with power and precision.

Premium Components. Maximum Musicality.

  • 6.5" high-performance aluminum driver
  • Dual 6.5" passive radiators for extended bass
  • 200 W peak power amplification
  • Low-frequency response down to 25 Hz

The result? Low end that’s deep yet impeccably controlled, warm yet defined, and powerful without ever clouding the midrange. It’s not just more bass — it’s bass perfected.

Wired and Wireless for Any Studio Workflow
Connections and control:

  • XLR + RCA analog inputs and outputs
  • USB digital audio input
  • High-quality Bluetooth® streaming

If the studio fits on a desktop, iLoud Sub fits right in.

The Ideal Upgrade to Any Small Studio
iLoud Sub isn’t just about adding low end — it’s about elevating the entire monitoring system to a new level. Mixers and producers can work faster, make bolder creative choices, and experience music with full-range depth and emotional impact that conventional monitors simply can’t deliver on their own.
