    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    I am sure I‘ve read *somewhere*, before I bought them, that you could set a standby time in the software, but I haven‘t seen such an option. Would like to make it shorter as well. No issues otherwise with standby or anything else!

    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    Deeper bass, obviously, and DSP, but they do sound *very* similar, which is what I wanted/expected. I could have achieved the same/more with the 750 DSP, I guess but living in an apartment, I was a bit “scared” of a sub, and the 120s serve a different purpose now, anyway. If I may add...

    Eversolo DMP-A6 Streamer Review

    Tempted, but I’d only use it as a streamer as well - not because I expect an audible difference, but because of all of the RME ADI-2 DAC‘s additional features. I don‘t suppose there‘s a similar product with a comparable screen that’s only a transporter? edit: typo

    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    Maybe I am misunderstanding you, but the Dynaudio Core 7 costs quite a bit more than the (non-AES) KH 150, and even more than the KH150 AES, at least here in Germany.

    New Neumann MA 1 - Automatic Monitor Alignment

    Thanks - I am pretty much 2m, so still nearfield. I do find it a *tad* bright now, though, probably because I am used to the kh120s, without any correction.

    New Neumann MA 1 - Automatic Monitor Alignment

    Apologies in advance that I didn‘t take proper screenshots. Is this a reasonable result, or should I expect something different? Edit: that’s an untreated living room

    Can't decide between Neumann kh150 and kh310, help needed

    I am in absolutely no position to help you with your question, only that I had similar thoughts and decided for the kh150, which I bought just Saturday. I was too hesitant to buy the 310 because I expect Neumann to upgrade the entire range, so it would be wiser and wait to either buy a future...

    Can't decide between Neumann kh150 and kh310, help needed

    Sorry, that‘s not quite true. Both the kh150 and the 310 have the exactly identical recommended listening distance between 1,0 and 2,5 m, according to Neumann’s spec sheets.

    New Neumann MA 1 - Automatic Monitor Alignment

    I bought a KH150/MA-1 bundle and just set up the MA-1 for a quick test run. After some initial difficulties (mostly my fault, like forgetting to install the Focusrite’s drivers on the PC), everything seems to work fine. Silly question time: am I supposed to let the “listening chair” where it...

    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    I’ve also bought the MA-1 kit, that’s for another day though. They already sound great to me, I wonder how much it will change things. But disappointed with the listening situation at Thomann, they have three dozen sets of monitors in entirely different positions, with no level matching. Was...

    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    On the speaker? That’s the Neumann logo. Which goes red if you overdo it. :D

    Neumann KH 150 Monitor Review

    I was at Thomann‘s todays and did not come back entirely empty-handed. They look small in the photo, but feel enormous to me right now, coming from the KH120…

    Genelec Ones- Overpriced ?

    That’s not really a definition, though, just another way of saying „overpriced“, no? Subjective or objective criteria?

    Neumann KH120 II

    Yeah, I do find the Ones nicer as well, but it is generally rare that I mind "form follows function" design. A loudspeaker is allowed to look like a loudspeaker instead of an expensive piece of furniture, I am absolutely fine with that. FWIW, my wife likes the uncospicuous and "honest" looks of...

    Neumann KH120 II

    Sorry, I am not sure what you mean. How did I misread the comment? I was actually about to recommend GGNTKT or D&D for similarly performing brands (if for a different budget), but then I realized that I cannot possibly recommend anything because we do not have the same basic design...

    Neumann KH120 II

    I have absolutely no idea what someone would like who thinks Neumanns and Genelecs look „cheap and plasticky“, it‘s just too far off my own views. But then I wouldn’t ruin my living room by putting a huge ugly flatscreen TV in there, so what do I know. :D

    Neumann KH120 II

    „Metal alloy fabric dome“ is obviously a direct translation of the original German term „Metalllegierung-Gewebekalotte“, which makes perfect sense, and which Google as well as DeepL translate exactly like that as well. Not sure how else you’d want to call it, but then I am not a native English...

    New Neumann MA 1 - Automatic Monitor Alignment

    Is the auto standby more reliable on the 120II and/or 150? Thanks.

    New mysterious Genelec monitors

    Genelec active studio monitors and people living in trailers, two things that clearly belong together... I'll take the look of most active monitors over the "high end" furniture any day of the week, now I just need a trailer that fits my library. :D

    New mysterious Genelec monitors

    Smaller in what way, employees, revenue? I doubt there is a huge difference between Focal and Genelec. Not sure about Kef, but it's probably a similar ballpark. None of them is a major player. Harman, Sennheiser or Bose are. Although you'd have to differentiate between pro and consumer...
