KH120

Oh yeah, I do! Love my KH120’s and well-treated room! Valid question/suggestion! I’m sure I could do better monitor-wise, like some big sexy ATC’s (the dream), but my Neumann’s continue to serve me and my humble little space well more than a decade in!

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.

Problem with ns10s etc is that you can’t mix on them for too long before you get ear fatigue. Other problem is that they’re just not enjoyable to mix on in general. So harsh. I ditched mine and bought a pair of Neumann kh120 (and did the room analysis thing that comes with them) and suddenly everyth

Active near-field monitors will win in nearfield most of the time due to active crossovers and dedicated waveguides. Check out Neumanns KH-120.

That's a tough call honestly. I feel you on wanting to future-proof with Atmos, but tbh a great stereo mix translates better than a mediocre Atmos one. If your room treatment is already solid, I'd lean toward investing in high-end stereo monitors first - something like Neumann KH 120 II or Genelec 8

You can for sure get a pair of professionally-decent audio monitors for $300-$500 US. They won't be great and I wouldn't use them to finish audio for Netflix or whatever, but for most corporate work, YouTube, and lots of other stuff, there are a bunch of good options. Here's a slight edit of a post

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.

Unless people are knocking down your door for atmos mixes 5.1 should be plenty and you can always upscale in the future if you need too. I was in your position recently and went for Neumann KH120 (LCR), KH80 (LsRs) and KH750 (Sub). They were out of my budget originally but having good calibration wa

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
