It features Gear4music’s ‘Immersive Sound Technology’ (or IST) to give you the perfect sound for a large variety of applications. The inclusion and positioning of the 6″ woofer ensures that you wont just hear bass youll feel it! This is excellent for providing you with an extended bass response to accurately reproduce low-frequency content such as bass guitars or lower octaves of a digital piano. It faces directly forwards so the low frequency pulses around you help to generate an immersive sound. Youll certainly feel the benefit when practicing with an electronic drum kit. The sideKIK will make kick drums feel and sound just like the real thing! Whats more the two 3.5″ high-frequency tweeters have been carefully angled so it directs straight towards your upper body making it the perfect floor monitor. The speakers innovative design doesn’t end here. The tweeters are offset away from each other to ensure maximum dispersion of the mid and high frequency spectrum. In short you’re still going to get that same great sound whether you’re directly in front of the speaker or whether you’re at the other side of the room. No compromise necessary. The inclusion of EQ dials allow you to globally tweak the sound of the sideKIKs first and second inputs to adjust their tonality. The low-frequency band provides a gradual bump at 150Hz for body and presence (perfect for a bit more kick drum or bass guitar) whilst the high-frequency band at 7.5kHz offers an ultra-smooth sheen for “record-ready” results.
