Neumann KH 150 Studio Monitor

The Neumann KH 150 Studio Monitor represents the start of another wave of evolution in the Neumann monitor portfolio. Featuring an extended frequency range the KH 150 will find its home in both home and pro studios around the world!

Neumann.Berlin is excited to announce the latest addition to its monitor family, the KH 150! The KH 150 is the perfect new addition: not only does it close a gap in the KH line, it also comes with massive power reserves. Its new 6.5” woofer, which we meticulously developed over a period of three years, offers higher reproduction accuracy than anything currently on the market. With a 20 liter bass reflex cabinet, the KH 150 delivers a maximum SPL of 118 dB at 1 meter, and a deep bass response down to 39 Hz! And this evolution continues in the electronics: as you have come to expect from the more recent models of the KH line, the new model also is DSP driven and exhibits all the superior performance features that digital signal processing has to offer.

Neumann Accuracy, Serious Bass and Power
The KH 150 is a powerful bi-amplified studio monitor with reference-class performance. Its 6.5” woofer in a bass reflex cabinet provides stunning low-end and high-end SPL capability with undiminished clarity. DSP-controlled electronics ensure linear phase response and allow for room-adaptive calibration using Neumann’s revolutionary MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment system.

What You Hear Is What You Get
The KH 150 follows the same philosophy as all Neumann studio monitors: highest linearity, lowest distortion, no coloration, and perfect adaptability to any acoustic environment. It allows you to hear every nuance of your tracks. Once you eliminate the guesswork, mixing becomes so much faster and easier – not to mention more creative: Sounds amazing, but can I get away with that? Is that vocal bright or sibilant? Is it too much bass? The KH 150 will tell you. Honestly.

One Bigger
What differentiates the KH 150 from its smaller siblings is its deeper bass response down to 39 Hz. That’s almost as low as the larger KH 310, which is made possible by the KH 150’s novel 6.5” high-precision woofer in a carefully designed bass reflex cabinet. The KH 150 is thus ideally suited to urban music, EDM, film scoring, and all styles that require extended lowend and/or elevated listening levels. Thanks to powerful amplifiers (145 W/100 W) and sophisticated protection limiters, no clarity is lost even at high SPLs. But the KH 150 is also a true universalist, working just as well for everything from rock to classical music, broadcast applications and voice-over work.

Ready for Your Room
Even the best loudspeaker only sounds as good as the acoustic environment allows. Neumann’s Mathematically Modeled Dispersion™ (MMD™) waveguide guarantees a wide sweet spot and minimizes desk reflections. But the KH 150 goes much further: its internal DSP allows for room calibration using Neumann’s revolutionary Automatic Monitor Alignment system. The MA 1 (sold separately) makes sure your DSP-powered monitors are optimally adapted to your room’s characteristics and perfectly calibrated for your listening position. Even in acoustically treated rooms, this results in a huge improvement.

Energy Efficient<br>Neumann engineers worked painstakingly to develop a patent-pending amplifier technology that combines superior audio performance with Class D energy efficiency. Although the KH 150’s amplifiers deliver up to 145 W to the 6.5” woofer and 100 W to the 1” tweeter, they only consume 17 W at idle. And an optional auto-standby mode can be enabled to reduce power consumption to 0.3 W when the KH 150 is not in use.
