What We Think

When Neumann decided they wanted to get into the studio monitor market, they really did it right by buying out an outstanding and well-established company - Klein & Hummel. The Neumann KH 120 is a refined version of the original K&H O 110. Neumann was able to tighten up the tolerances on the components and essentially has created a more consistent O 110.

If you liked the old K&H O 110, you'll be right at home with the Neumann KH120's. If you're not familiar with either monitor, you're in for a treat. The 120's are remarkably full range for a speaker of this size. They extend noticeably further down than other 4 or 5 inch monitors in this class, and have a more robust representation of the low end that lives down there.

These monitors are a breeze to work on. There's a great sense of depth, with a well defined back wall to your stereo field. They're quite detailed, so you're going to be hearing all the subtle nuances of your compressor settings, and your delay and reverb tails - it may not always be pleasant, but better that you hear it while mixing rather than on playback of a finished album! Speaking of that detail, these monitors really seem to expose your mix for what it really is, without smacking you across the face with it. You can work on these monitors all day long, hearing everything you need to hear, without the ear fatigue you'd find in many other monitors.

The KH 120's are world class monitors that are easy to work with. Give us a call and try a pair out for yourself!

Manufacturer's Description from Neumann

Key Features

  • High-precision drivers, Mathematically Modelled Dispersion (MMD) waveguide
  • Linear frequency response 39 Hz to 21 kHz (±3 dB)
  • Linear phase response 105 Hz to 16 kHz (±45°) with latency <2.6 ms
  • DSP engine allows for room adaptive calibration via Neumann’s MA 1
  • Razor-sharp imaging due to extremely low tolerances (±0.8 dB)
  • May be combined with other KH line speakers in immersive/surround setups
  • Neumann Accuracy, Serious Bass and Power

The KH 120 MKII is a powerful bi-amplified studio monitor with reference-class performance. Its 5.25" woofer in a bass-reflex cabinet provides stunning low-end and high-end SPL capability with undiminished clarity. DSP-controlled electronics ensure linear phase response and allow for room-adaptive calibration using Neumann's revolutionary MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment system.

What You Hear Is What You Get

The KH 120 MKII follows the same philosophy as all Neumann studio monitors: highest linearity, lowest distortion, no coloration, and perfect adaptability to any acoustic environment. It allows you to hear every nuance of your tracks. Once you eliminate the guesswork, mixing becomes so much faster and easier, not to mention more creative. It sounds amazing, but can you get away with that? Is that vocal bright or sibilant? Is it too much bass? The KH 120 MKII will tell you—honestly.

Ready for Your Room

Even the best loudspeaker only sounds as good as the acoustic environment allows. Neumann’s Mathematically Modeled Dispersion (MMD) waveguide guarantees a wide sweet spot and minimizes desk reflections. But the KH 150 goes much further—its internal DSP allows for room calibration using Neumann’s revolutionary Automatic Monitor Alignment system. 

The MA 1 (sold separately) makes sure your DSP-powered monitors are optimally adapted to your room’s characteristics and perfectly calibrated for your listening position. Even in acoustically treated rooms, this results in a huge improvement.
