KH 120 II

Hey, I can totally relate. I use Neumanns myself (KH120 II), but it actually makes sense – most listeners out there will hear the music on setups that are closer to HS8s than to high-end monitors. I wouldn’t be surprised if the HS8s simply force you to make decisions that translate better because th

Minidsp Flex driving two Neumann KH-120 II's and a pair of OG SVS SB-1000 subs in fullrange stereo mode. Heavily treated small room, focused on tight balanced decay across frequency range for analytical nearfield use. Target curve 6dB bass boost from flat. The subs have evil THD below 35Hz so I drop

A comparable choice would be the Neumann KH 120 II. This model is front-ported and therefore can be placed right against a wall. Other than that they are very similar to the 8330 in performance and build quality.

If you want to listen to music with pinpoint accuracy, and you are a rational person, you would indeed build the equivalent of a recording studio control room, or a mastering engineer room. But without the mixing desk, effects racks, etc What does that look like? 1. the room has acoustic treatment f

You're being unfair to the KEFs and MoFis as you're not adding a sub or crossing it over at 80hz like the Neumanns. Neumanns can also digitally limit the clipping. While ASR didn't do compression testing the KH120ii also struggled >96 db. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/ne

If you're okay with the looks, then the Genelec 8040s are really solid. Depending on where you are, you can sometimes find the KEF LS60s for close to that price used. If you are interested in other studio monitor options aside from Genelec, then maybe consider the Kali SM-5 or Neumann KH 120 II.

Skip the Kalis, get Neumann KH-120 II's, and don't look back.

totally get it - atcs in an apartment is overkill even if they sound incredible. since you're used to that level of detail, you'll want something that still translates well. i'd check the Neumann KH 120 II monitors, they're right in your range and give you that surgical precision without the price t

You will need EXTENSIVE treatment if you want to get anywhere close to a decent mix environment in a room that small. That is the EXACT size as my room and it took me thirty eight 6" and 9" thick bass-traps with a 6" air gap on all walls, all corners and ceiling to get my room to the point it was us
