But even with iLoud MTM's, you still have to install the Arc 3 software on the desktop in order to use the Arc 3 features and MEMS mic, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, the mic plugs directly into the speaker and there is a button on the speaker to start the calibration. I don't have the MTM's but I remember from reading about them when they came out. But I believe it takes it's reading from one position only, compared to 21 on the desktop. Edited September 20, 2021 by Jacques Boileau 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit - and I know many here are already in more than once and have spread the word, I meant generally we need more people buying in.

It must be getting harder and harder to get the news out to people who haven't heard about the GB yet. There must be less and less. I know I have run out of friends to tell. I would love to see you win our little contest! Everyone benefits! Edited September 20, 2021 by Jacques Boileau 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, since the contest is the number of freebies, the max is 24. But, being an optimistic I did pick 24 though. As did Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Consider it good PR and customer relations, and just bill it to the marketing budget!!! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
