The IB2 stands out as a remarkable reference monitor, celebrated for its potent performance and unmatched clarity across the audio spectrum. Deriving its roots from the successful IB1, the IB2 distinguishes itself by incorporating a notable enhancement to its driver configuration. The inclusion of the PMC 75 large soft dome mid-range unit elevates the definition and clarity, elevating it to the level of larger monitors within the same range, without any increase in cabinet size.

Since its introduction, the IB2 has been embraced by renowned clientele across the globe. Notable figures such as Ronald Prent at Galaxy Studios, the legendary band Kraftwerk at Kling Klang, representatives from Teldex in Berlin, and JVC in Japan, among many others, have utilized the IB2, underscoring its widespread acclaim and reliability in the professional audio industry.

For those seeking a compact and powerful solution, the IB2 accommodates an ultra-low distortion Bryston PowerPac 300™ amplifier, which can be affixed to the rear of the monitor. These robust 300W mono block amplifiers, capable of accepting both balanced and unbalanced inputs, ensure optimal power transfer due to their close proximity to the speaker cabinet.

Its unparalleled performance and exceptional sound definition have rendered it the reference monitor of choice not only for esteemed publications like What HiFi Sound and Vision Magazine but also for discerning audiophiles who aspire to experience the unadulterated essence of a recording without any compromise.
