What We Think
Neumann has a reputation for doing things the right way. That's why when they announced a DSP controlled powered studio monitor set we got very excited. This compact desktop monitor solution is the answer for professionals and budding professionals who are mixing in less than ideal environments but require extreme accuracy.
Manufacturer's Description from Neumann
The KH 80 DSP two-way active bi-amplified monitor features a DSP engine with network control, a Mathematically Modeled Dispersion™ Waveguide (MMD™), an analogue input and an extensive range of mounting hardware. This allows the loudspeaker to be used in diverse acoustical conditions, with any source equipment and in a wide variety of physical locations. The KH 80 represents the latest in acoustic and electronic simulation and measurement technologies to ensure the most accurate sound reproduction possible.
The KH 80 DSP is designed for use as a near-field monitor, as a front loudspeaker in small multi-channel systems, or as a rear loudspeaker in a compact multi-channel systems. It can be used in project and music studios, broadcast centers, OB vans, and post production studios for tracking, mixing, and mastering. It is also well suited for use in domestic environments.
Key Features
- 4” + 1” drivers powered by high efficiency 120 and 70 W amplifiers
- Computer modeled and optimized drivers and MMD™ waveguide
- 57 Hz (-3 dB) bass extension and 108.8 dB SPL at 1 m
- DSP engine with standard IP networking and Neumann.Control software
About Manufacturer
Specializing in some of the finest microphones in the world, Neumann has develpoed a top name in the industry for consistency, reliability, and sonic excellence. With microphones suited for the entire range of studio recording (and more recently live application), Neumann microphones are often a first choice for uncompromised acoustic reproduction.
