Innovative DSP
The KH 150 takes advantage of modern DSP to help shape and define its sound into one of the most accurate monitors you'll ever hear. A flat and linear DSP-tuned frequency response with incredible consistency of no more than ± 0.8 dB variance ensures you will only ever hear the truth of any signal you run through it. Then, advanced digital crossover filters prevent phase distortion for an utterly clean and uncoloured sound with broad, clear stereo imaging. The final form of DSP present is compatibility with Neumann's MA 1 speaker calibration system, that will help adapt the KH 150's tuning for your room, creating a perfectly optimised sound.
Accurate Sound
Acting as a bridge between Neumann's KH 120 and KH 310 monitors, the 150 provide deep, clear bass with incredible linearity down to 39 Hz, thanks to its 6.5" woofer design and bass reflex enclosure. Paired with its DSP-attenuated tuning and distortion-free projection, the KH 150 is excellent for all kinds of precision audio work. From music production, mixing, film scoring, broadcast, and voiceover work, the accuracy of these studio monitors will adapt to any material you throw at them.
Efficient Amplification
Neumann have re-approached their amplifier design to combine the incredible efficiency of Class D amplification with custom circuitry that improves sound quality. As a result, the KH 150 will draw up to 245 W peak power, while drawing 17 W when idle. Plus, its auto-standby mode reduces power consumption to 0.3 W when not in use.
