PMC is a British company that specializes in designing and manufacturing high quality loudspeakers and professional monitoring systems. Their products are used in various settings, from professional recording studios to home audio systems. PMC's technology is particularly noted for its Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) design, which enhances the bass output and audio clarity. Their products cater to audiophiles and professionals seeking accurate and immersive sound reproduction.

The MB2i is a three-way, high-resolution ATL™ reference monitor known for its ability to deliver an exceptional audio experience. Building upon the capabilities of the smaller IB2, the MB2i introduces the capacity to resolve even finer details in the lower frequencies, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a comprehensive audio solution. Its frequency range extends dramatically down to 20Hz, offering greater headroom and depth, perfect for an audio presentation that leaves no room for compromise.

This reference monitor is a staple in the facilities of many renowned broadcasters and music creators, including the likes of Brian May, Coldplay, and the BBC. It stands out as the first in the PMC range to incorporate the radically engineered Radial™ bass unit. The design features a colossal exo-skeleton, providing exceptional physical and thermal stability. This stability ensures that the cone maintains a perfectly rigid structure, allowing for substantial excursions, while the coil remains cool thanks to the heat-sinking properties of the exposed fins.

The MB2i's cabinet is beautifully veneered and acoustically tuned, crafted from precision-cut panels that exceed 35mm in thickness. The interior is further enhanced with damping and bracing provided by a labyrinth that extends the ATL™ for pure, untainted audio production. The integrated components flawlessly combine the silky-smooth i series tweeter, PMC 75 Soft dome midrange, and the 12" Radial™ bass unit. These are brought together by a meticulous, hand-built 24dB per octave precision crossover network, featuring individually matched components. This setup allows for significant power handling, unrestricted dynamic range, and a captivating subtlety in audio reproduction.

In keeping with the PMC design philosophy, matching horizontal center speakers (MB2i-C) and subwoofers (XB2) are available to create unparalleled surround sound systems. The i series range also includes bespoke pre-tuned 'designer' stands for all large stand-mounted models, enhancing both the elegance and performance of the design.
