PMC Loudspeakers IB1S - Pair

Three-way high performance monitor for stand mounting
MFR# IB1S

Product Description

The PMC IB1S is an extremely flexible 3-way monitor, which has found its home in the most varied of environments.

Commonly seen in Mastering, Broadcast and Postproduction in either stereo or surround when partnered with its dedicated centre channel and SB100 sub bass system. Its huge popularity in Hollywood film scoring and postproduction is assisted by the option of ‘Film filters’. This gives 2 positions of HF roll off: 1.5dB and 3dB per Oct and Flat position.

The IB1S features wide dispersion soft domed fabric mid and high frequency units and the PMC 10" carbon fibre and Nomex™ flat piston low frequency driver. This flat patented driver increases dynamic handling and eliminates distortion that may occur due to cone break up.

Its taken me a full day to try to put into words how phenominal these monitors sound. Still feeling like a giddy child, i'm doubting my ability to fully convey just how amazing they sound. Probably because, for first time in my life, I feel comfortable saying it felt like I wasn't listening through monitors at all. These were paired with Ayre Acoustics (VX-5 Twenty) amplifiers; that being said it was at that point I wished that the only reproduced sound I ever heard again came through a setup exactly like this, powered by those amps whether out of a DAW or whatever media format was available; That is the way I want to hear sound. I've been to universal mastering... i've heard the setups, and this setup may have beat them. it wasn't harsh, but astonishingly clear, transparent, warm, but not in a way that added anything that wasn't already there. the high's shimmered without being shimmering, no b.s just pure aural ecstasy. I will have a pair of these monitors eventually and my speaker quest will be complete at that point; unless PMC has a powered model that can trump these.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

The speed of delivery exceeded my expectations! I was VERY pleased that my shipment arrived in time for a scheduled vocal tracking session. The packing insured that my order arrived safely. And the sales staff responded quickly to questions regarding the product.

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.

From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
