The IB1S is a remarkably versatile 3-way monitor speaker that seamlessly adapts to a wide array of environments. Widely utilized in professional settings, it has established its presence in mastering, broadcast, and postproduction, whether for stereo or surround sound applications. This adaptability is further enhanced when it is paired with its dedicated center channel and the SB100 sub-bass system.
The IB1S enjoys significant popularity in the Hollywood film industry, especially in scoring and postproduction tasks. This is partly due to the availability of 'Film filters,' which offer two high-frequency roll-off options at 1.5dB and 3dB per octave, along with a flat position. Its design includes wide dispersion soft domed fabric midrange and high-frequency units, complemented by the PMC 10" carbon fiber and Nomex™ flat piston low frequency driver. This patented flat driver enhances dynamic handling and significantly reduces distortion by preventing cone break-up.
Prestigious institutions such as BBC Technologies Headquarters have integrated the IB1S into their studios, a testament to its superior performance and adaptability. For owners of the IB1S, registering the product within ten days of purchase ensures a 20-year warranty, although terms and conditions apply.
