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

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.

Monitoring is EVERYTHING when trying to get a pro sound. The first time I sat in front of my Neumann KH 120 II, moving from Yamaha HS5, I was blown away by how easy it was to find what I was looking for in my mixes. If you can’t get a polished sound, it’s usually because of masking. If you can’t fin

I'm happy with the Neumann KH 120 II monitors, along with their finicky but helpful MA-1 alignment/calibration mic and software. https://www.neumann.com/en-us/products/monitors/kh-120-ii?variant=509122 But as others here say, see if you can hear a few leading models.

Neumann KH120 II DSP studio monitor pair + 2x KH750 DSP subwoofers. There's only so much room correction can do below 50Hz in my smallish untreated square room. Still sounds great to my ears though.

From an audio engineering perspective, the most accurate speakers don’t always sound the best. I monitor through a pair of Neumann KH 120 II with a sub in a well treated room, and these speakers will absolutely point out shrill high-frequency details that go unnoticed on other speakers. When I’m lis

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

Based on cursory glance in Spinorama, 1500 euro budget might allow reaching spinorama score better than 6.5 after equalization, which is already very good. Something like Neumann KH-120-II should do the trick, especially if you want near field listening unit. Passives exist for similar tonal accurac
