Neumann KH 150 AES67 active studio monitor

Precise monitoring for networked studio and production environments

The DSP-based and bi-amplified KH 150 AES67 studio monitor from Neumann is the perfect loudspeaker for smaller studio environments with high demands or surround applications with other models in the KH series. It not only cuts a fine figure visually, but also performs excellently in a wide range of applications: whether rock/pop productions, voice-over recordings or mixes and compositions in the soundtrack sector- it simply does everything with high precision! Thanks to its linearity, minimal distortion, no coloration and perfect adaptability to any acoustic environment, it is possible to hear every nuance of your tracks and make the right decisions at Mix.

Especially and in comparison to its smaller siblings, the KH150 impresses with a deeper bass response down to 39 Hz. It almost comes close to the larger KH310! This is made possible by the new 6.5-inch high-precision woofer, the carefully designed bass reflex cabinet and the DSP-controlled electronics. This means that EDM fans also get their money's worth. Its top end reaches 21 kHz and linearizes the phase response resulting in an amazingly transparent sound of the mids and extreme accuracy in the time domain respectively precise impulse reproduction and finely resolved halls.

The right sound - no matter where you are!

Even the best loudspeakers only sound as good as the acoustic environment allows. Neumann's MMD (Mathematically Modeled Dispersion) waveguideguarantees a wide sweet spot and minimizes desk reflections, while the internal DSP enables room calibration. The latter is made possible by the combination of the Automatic Monitor Alignment system and Neumann's MA 1 (sold separately). The DSP-controlled electronics enable sophisticated crossovers and avoid phase distortion caused by analog filters. At the same time, there are various switches on the rear panel for shaping the sound in addition to ground lift, inputselect and level.

Efficient in every respect

It's not just the sound and design that are impressive: Neumann's engineers have worked meticulously to develop a patent-pending amplifier technology that combines superior audio performance with Class D energy efficiency. Although the monitor's amps deliver up to 145 watts(woofer) and 100 watts(tweeter), only 17 W is consumed when idle. By activating the optional auto standby mode, power consumption can be reduced to 0.3 watts when the speaker is not in use.

AES67

This version in particular is a model with an AES67 network port. AES67 is an exchange format with the advantage of being able to connect a wide range of network standards. The KH 150 AES is therefore fully compatible with broadcast standards such as ST 2110, ST 2022-7 redundancy and RAVENNA. At the same time, it can also be connected to DANTE-generated AES67 network streams.
