I've read one or two comments, in one of the Revel threads here, about preferring the presentation of the cheaper F35 or F36 over the F206. It's a shame that it's not always easy or possible to audition certain speakers at home, depending on where you live.

Yeah, I don't notice any issues listening to my kh150's when I move away from my desk. However, I'm never more than about 2.6 away and the room is only 3.6 x 4 metres.

Thanks for your reply. Your review project looks very thorough and worthwhile, so good luck with it. Out of interest, why in the first place did you buy the KH150's if you felt that way about their power and DI slopes. I notice that you were making a similar point near the beginning of this...

Agreed, disappointing, but my question remains..

If it's 'exceptionally and unaccepably bad', no less, then why no mention whatsoever of the phenomenon in the highly positive review at the beginning of this thread? Just out of interest.

Yet no mention of this in Amir's glowing KH150 review. What gives?

so, if you only use this dac with an android phone, along with UAPP or Poweramp (PCM only), you are unlikely to have the Windows issues discussed here? Just checking -)

Depends where you are though. Here, a pair of 708p's cost around 25% more than a pair of 4329p's. In the US, I believe the 708ps are better value compared to the EU/UK. Possibly better supported by JBL too. Fwiw, Erin seemed to prefer the 4329p's From how you described the volume and source...

the manual doesn't mention a recommended minimum listening distance from MLP to front of baffle. Would it be around, say, 2.5 metres or could you get any closer for the drivers to integrate properly?

Sorry to hear of your issue, OP. Mine are about a year old and occasionally I get the stand by issue affecting one speaker (just remedied by turning them off and on), but thankfully not something that happens often enough to be an issue as such. With that in mind, it's concerning that they...

I set the volume to about 80% in MA-1 and then that's saved to the speakers without MA-1 or ethernet cables connected. Makes sure that if you accidentally play too loud from your source, then you won't be blowing your ears or speakers!

@Markus @ Neumann posted in the KH150 thread that both methods of connection were fine but "going into the monitors first reduces the overall system delay because of the latency free digital out of the monitors."...

Yeah, just checked.. No Sleep till Hammersmith was actually a live LP consisting mainly of concerts in Leeds and Newcastle for the 81 tour Short Sharp Pain in the Neck. Coincidentally, 81 was also the year Californian rock outfit Spirit toured the UK (Potatoland tour) and I went to their...

was that the 'no sleep till Hammersmith' tour?

You might try supplementing your monitors with a large stack of marshall amps for that use case :D

Difficult to say if they are not prepared to acknowledge the issue.

Sorry to hear of your issues. For the sake of reassurance, it would be interesting to hear from one of the Neumann representatives that frequent this forum on the matter. My KH150 also occasionally (but thankfully seldom) don't start up from standby when I turn on my UCXII, although it's only...

And another question to add to that one, which of the two would be more suitable for those with small heads?

I have a narrow head (which gives me fit issues with many headphones) and had the potential problem that @solderdude warned about in his excellent 620S DIY audio heaven review. There was a gap between the bottom of the pad and my neck or jaw bone, which is obviously disastrous for getting a...

Good news for anyone thinking of getting a MT48, Neumann have just extended the deadline for obtaining Monitor Mission free of charge on the MT48 product page.
