Neumann KH 80 DSP 4 inch Powered Studio Monitor

The Neumann developers know every nuance, every angle and every wave reflection of the KH 80 DSP. It sounds so pure because they are directing every sound wave so precisely. The KH 80 DSP’s design is based on computer simulations that calculate with a level of accuracy that no one other than Neumann does. The Mathematical Modeled Dispersion Waveguide (MMD™) provides the studio series with a solid base for precise sound direction that remains unique. Maths has never sounded so good.

A TOOL FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS

Highest quality components, high-end protection systems and power reserves are what you would expect from this studio class product even under the most demanding circumstances. Its design makes the KH 80 DSP a versatile near-field monitor, which delivers professional-quality sound wherever you need it – in project and music studios, editing and broadcasting rooms or in outside broadcast vans. Some of our customers like it so much, they use the KH 80 DSP in their living rooms. Why not? After all, the KH 80 DSP delivers digital precision for a masterpiece of analog technology: your ears.

The KH 750 DSP subwoofer is the perfect complement to the KH 80 DSP.

The KH 80 DSP has also been developed true to the Neumann philosophy for monitor loudspeakers. Every component, every shape, every signal and every wave motion is a consequence of this philosophy. No form or component is there without reason. There are hundreds of tangible reasons built into the KH 80 DSP, which all stand for exceptionally pure and neutral sound. These include, for example, curvatures of the housing that reduce edge diffraction. Also included is the pistonic output of the bass driver which does not give rise to harmonic distortions, even with the highest sound peaks. Some of these reasons are obvious in the KH 80. Others Neumann prefers to keep to itself. But together, each can be heard – sound professionals in both large and small studios all around the world can testify to this.

Highlights

• Production consistency due to automated computer optimized alignment in final testing
• Any KH 80 DSP is “pair matched” to any other KH 80 DSP
• Separate fast acting thermo limiters for woofer and tweeter to protect the voice coils and power amplifiers
• Woofer soft clip and excursion limiters
• Fast acting and highly reliable
• Allows extraction of the maximum performance
• Low heat dissipation amplifiers with large headroom and overheat limiting
• Improved transient response
• Assured reliability and safety
• Linear phase crossover
• Flat phase response for timing transparency
• 8 x Precision Alignment acoustical controls: Accurate and flexible alignment of the loudspeaker in the room and within systems
• Lip-sync delay: To align audio and video signals up to 1.75 frames at 50 Hz or 2.1 frames at 60 Hz
• Time-of-flight delay: To compensate for listening distance differences up to 24 m (79 ft.)
• Dimming the Neumann logo for low lighting level conditions or behind the screen applications
