In-ear monitors
In-ear monitors (IEMs) are small, personal speakers worn inside the ear to deliver a clear, direct audio feed. Typically used by musicians and performers, they allow precise sound monitoring without external noise interference, enabling accurate pitch and timing. IEMs improve sound clarity, protect hearing from loud stage volumes, and offer a personalized listening experience. They often connect via a cable or wireless system and come with custom or universal ear tips for comfort. The main advantage is providing high-quality, isolated sound that helps performers perform at their best in noisy environments.
