IN-8

Fwiw, Sony replaced their 5k/ea Genelecs with Kali IN-8V2s in most of their audio post rooms this past year. Apparently the audio leadership couldn’t tell the difference between the Genelecs and the Kalis in a blind test. On a personal angle, I work in 3x Atmos rooms with Genelecs and have a Kali At

Personal experience here, nothing more: the Kalis are better than the Focals in terms of not hyping the highs, yes. You can see Klippel NFS measurements here. However, at a similar price point, you could grab a used pair of Neumann KH120As (the previous generation without DSP) and I think that's a b

I think for the money if you’re looking for a replacement in your budget, the Kali Audio IN-8 v2s are your best option. Paper cone, 3 way speaker with really good transient response and a very detailed midrange which a lot of speakers in the budget tier are lacking. I work in an Audio Post facility

Kali Audio IN-8. Best bang for the buck.

Save up until you can afford ATC tier, or maybe KH310 or Adam S series, PMC, smaller Barefoot, PSI, Dutch and Dutch, etc. I heard someone saying on another thread how a major company was going to be using all Kali IN8 moving forward in their many post rooms over Genelec.

I went to the Kali warehouse a few weeks ago to pick up a part for the repair and their supply chain lead told me about the Sony situation. We have a mutual contact at Sony who is very involved in both their 360 Reality Audio systems and their Audio Post rooms, and Sony’s 360RA display at NAMM was f

I don’t know the neumann’s you mentioned, but I have a pair of Adam a7x’s that I really like and do the majority of my mixing on (similar price range), and I recently heard some kali in8’s that I was impressed with. The kalis are only $1k for the pair…

I have IN8’s and mix cubes in my studio. Love both of them. I paired my IN8’s with a Kali sub as well which is a game changer. Fantastic setup for the price. That said, you really need to make sure your room is treated. I built my studio and hooked all of my stuff up to hear what it would sound like

I buy new monitors only once in a decade or so and came from ns10 (I'm old) Dynaudio BM6A and HS80 to the Kali IN8 2nd Wave after I found Erin's review and measurements to be very convincing esp for their price. Can highly recommend, love them.

I have been using Kali Audio LP8 V1 for the last few years and they are great and come in under the budget. The V2 IN-8 would be an even bigger fuller sound. The front porting is great.
