Neumann KH 120 II 5.25-inch 2-way Powered Studio Monitor (Pair) - Awaiting Stock

Neumann’s Next-gen DSP Nearfield Monitor

Neumann monitoring is fast becoming the reference of choice in countless studios worldwide. Audio engineers, musicians and producers in need of a quality studio monitor will be thrilled with the anthracite Neumann KH 120 II, a 2-way active studio monitor well suited for near-field monitoring and multichannel setups in music studios, broadcast centres, and vans, as well as home studios and desktop audio applications.

The KH 120 MKII utilizes two amplifiers (80W each) to power the 5.25" woofer and 1" tweeter respectively, an onboard DSP engine, a Mathematically Modeled Dispersion waveguide (MMD), an analogue input and an extensive range of optional mounting hardware.

Perfect Sound with a Small Footprint
The KH 120 II has an exceptionally linear frequency response from 44 Hz to 21 kHz (±3 dB). It linearizes the phase response, which translates to clear mids with astonishing transparency and extreme accuracy. The DSP-controlled electronics that promote sophisticated crossovers actively reduce the phase distortion caused by analogue filters. The internal DSP also realizes new standards in tonal consistency. The KH 120 II is made to extremely low tolerances of no more than ±0.5 dB! And you can hear it, too: Stereo imaging is razor-sharp.

The KH 120 II is designed for nearfield applications with a recommended listening distance of 1 – 2 meters (3 – 6 ft.). Making it ideally suited to smaller rooms such as home and project studios as well as mixing and editing suites or as a surround speaker in large multichannel applications. 

Ready for Home Studios + Projects
Even the best loudspeaker only sounds as good as the acoustic environment allows. Neumann’s Mathematically Modelled Dispersion™ (MMD™) waveguide guarantees a wide sweet spot and minimizes desk reflections. But the KH 120 II goes much further: Its internal DSP allows for room calibration via Neumann’s revolutionary Automatic Monitor Alignment.

MA 1 (sold separately) ensures your DSP-powered monitors are optimally adapted to the character of your room and perfectly aligned for your listening position. Even in acoustically treated rooms, this results in a significant improvement.

AES 67 – Audio Over IP
Additionally, the KH 120 II AES67 model variant offers integrated redundant AES67 audio network ports that are fully compliant with broadcast standards such as ST 2110, ST 2022-7 redundancy, and RAVENNA. At the same time, the KH 120 II AES67 is compatible with DANTE®-generated AES67 network streams.

Energy Efficient
Neumann engineers took great care to develop a patent-pending amplifier technology which combines superior audio performance with the energy efficiency of Class D. Although the power amplifiers of the KH 120 II deliver up to 145 W to the 5.25” woofer and 100 W to the 1” tweeter, they only consume 17 W at idle. Auto-standby reduces power consumption to 0.3 W when the KH 120 II has not been used for a while but can be deactivated.
