Rear panel controlat your desktop
X-MONITORgives you access to all the same controls as Precision’s rear panel from your desktop and lets you save their settings as user presets for easy recall. You can select individual speakers or linked pairs. From the software you can adjust the low-frequency extension, the low- and high-frequency contours, standby timer setting and more. No more struggling to experiment with back panels settings, it can all be adjusted withinX-MONITOR.
Iconic speaker emulation
X-MONITORcontrols Precision’s ability to emulate the frequency and phase response of the most famous studio monitors on the market, working in tandem with the ARC settings for the best possible sound in any listening environment. This is ideal for testing a mix on different reference systems quickly, without ever leaving the sweet spot and ARC’s calibration.
Choose the emulation you want to try from the Virtual Monitoring dropdown menu andX-MONITORapplies your selection to the Precisions. For immersive audio setups,X-MONITORlets you choose the same or different monitor emulations for each Precision or pair of Precisions for maximum flexibility.
The speaker emulations are stored inside the Precision’s firmware and the one last used is recalled the next time the speakers are turned on. Using X-MONITOR, or the optional remote control, makes it incredibly easy to audition and load the over 20 iconic speaker emulations or return iLoud Precision to its own original, superior sound.

Not bad but needs time spent to get the most out of it.
Much of the default samples are very thin and I get that it's based on the original hardware though some options in the plugin would have been nice but not necessary. General operation is good both as plug in and stand alone with some excellent features. Auto fills work nicely. Looking forward to spending some more time with it to get the most out of it.
These are a fantastic solid stand. I have my. Adam A77h’s on them . However, if I’m wrong cable management would be a blessing on the back but have been to the hardware shop to get some cable clips.
