The KH 150 is a DSP-equipped 2-way powered near-field monitor with a 6.5-inch woofer. Its deep low-end down to 39Hz and high SPL capability make it ideal for commercial studios. The AES 67 model supports AES67 digital audio connectivity. It also features calibration functionality, allowing for sound adjustment to suit the listening environment when used with the MA 1 measurement microphone (sold separately).
・A 2-way powered monitor with DSP control, boasting incredible bass performance and outstanding resolution.
・Linear frequency and phase response
・DSP engine further enhances performance and enables automatic alignment in any room.
・Incredible bass performance of 39Hz and excellent maximum SPL
・Analog/Digital (S/PDIF) input
The KH 150 not only fills the gap in the KH series but also incorporates DSP and high performance, as expected from the latest models. The newly developed 6.5-inch woofer, developed over three years, boasts higher reproduction accuracy than any other model currently on the market. Featuring a 20-liter bass-reflex cabinet, the KH 150 delivers a maximum SPL of 118dB (1m) and a deep bass response down to 39Hz.
■NEUMANN's signature precision, incredible bass performance, and unparalleled power
The KH 150 is a powerful two-way powered studio monitor boasting reference-class performance. The 6.5” woofer, housed in a bass-reflex cabinet, delivers astonishing low-frequency performance, superior maximum SPL, and unwavering clarity. DSP-controlled electronics ensure excellent linear phase response, while Neumann's innovative MA 1 automatic monitor alignment provides optimal calibration in any room.
■ Reproducing what you hear with your ears
The KH 150 was developed in accordance with the same philosophy as all Neumann studio monitors. It's a speaker that delivers supreme linearity, ultra-low distortion, and no unwanted coloration, perfectly adapting to any acoustic environment. You can hear every nuance of the music, and mixing becomes incredibly fast and easy once you have a clear idea. Its creativity is unparalleled.
""It certainly sounds great, but is it really enough? Are the vocals too bright? Are the sibilances too loud? Is the bass too prominent?"" The KH 150 undoubtedly answers all these questions.
■Performance on par with larger speakers
What's the difference between the KH 150 and its more compact sibling? It's its outstanding low-frequency performance, reaching 39Hz. The KH 150, with its new 6.5” woofer housed in a meticulously designed bass-reflex cabinet, delivers low-frequency performance comparable to the larger KH 310. This exceptional bass performance makes it ideal for all genres requiring deep bass and high volume, such as urban music, EDM, and movie soundtracks. Furthermore, the powerful amplifier (145W/100W) and advanced protection limiter ensure clarity isn't lost even at high sound pressure levels. As a truly universal speaker, the KH 150 is suitable for all music genres and applications, from rock to classical, broadcast, and voiceovers.
The KH 150's linear frequency response is an astonishing 39Hz to 21kHz (±3 With a tolerance of ±0.8 dB and linearized phase response, it boasts astonishingly transparent and clear midrange and exceptional time-domain precision, achieving accurate impulse reproduction and reliable reverberation elimination. This is made possible by DSP-controlled electronics, and advanced crossovers avoid phase distortion caused by analog filters. The built-in DSP sets a new standard in tonal consistency, achieving a low tolerance of less than ±0.8 dB, which is even audible to the ear. Enjoy the razor-sharp stereo image.
■Matches Any Room
Even the best speakers can only deliver sound commensurate with their acoustic environment. Neumann's unique MMD? waveguide, which mathematically models sound diffusion, minimizes sound reflection while achieving a wide sweet spot. Furthermore, the KH 150's built-in DSP allows for room-specific calibration using the innovative MA 1 automatic monitor alignment system (sold separately). With version 1, you can optimally adjust the DSP-equipped speakers to match the room's characteristics, achieving 100% calibration suitable for the listening position. Even in properly acoustically treated rooms, significant improvements are achieved.
Furthermore, the KH 150 offers high tonal compatibility with other KH series speakers, allowing for integration into surround/immersive systems. For added connectivity flexibility, it features both analog and digital inputs.
■ Achieves interoperability between AUDIO OVER IP protocols via the AES67 standard
The KH 150 AES67 variant features a redundant AES67 audio network port, fully compliant with broadcast standards such as ST 2110, ST 2022-7, and RAVENNA. It is also compatible with AES67 network streams generated by DANTER.
■ Superior energy efficiency
Neumann's engineering team focused on developing amplifier technology (patent pending) to simultaneously achieve outstanding audio performance and Class D energy efficiency. KH The KH 150's amplifier delivers a maximum of 145W to the 6.5” woofer and 100W to the 1” tweeter, yet consumes only 17W at idle. Automatic standby reduces power consumption to 0.3W when not in use for a period of time, but this feature can be disabled.
■Installation Instructions
Most accessories for the KH 120 can be used with the KH 150. The exception is the LH 65 table stand; a slightly larger LH 66 stand has been newly developed for the KH 150 (Cat. No. 700258). Also, because the KH 150 is slightly heavier and larger than the KH 120, the LH 61 (L-bracket) has been improved. Furthermore, the LH 64 (VESA mount) has been adjusted for easier operation of the KH 150's control section. There is no change to the order number.
