Audio engineers, musicians, and producers in need of a quality studio monitor with an extended frequency range will be thrilled with the white Neumann KH 150, a 2-way active studio monitor well suited for near-field monitoring and multichannel setups in music studios, broadcast centers, and vans, as well as home studios and desktop audio applications. The KH 150 utilizes two amplifiers (145 and 100W) to power the 6.5" woofer and 1" tweeter respectively, an onboard DSP engine, a Mathematically Modeled Dispersion waveguide (MMD), an analog input, and an extensive range of optional mounting hardware.
The DSP function is accessed via a standard IP network and 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. With the use of the latest acoustic and electronic simulation and measurement technologies, the KH 150 can be used in diverse acoustical conditions with any source equipment and in a wide variety of physical locations, ensuring accurate sound reproduction.
Key Features
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. It sounds amazing, but can you get away with that? Is that vocal bright or sibilant? Is it too much bass? The KH 150 will tell you—honestly.

Energy Efficient
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 145W to the 6.5" woofer and 100W to the 1" tweeter, they only consume 17W at idle. And an optional auto-standby mode can be enabled to reduce power consumption to 0.3W when the KH 150 is not in use.
