The KH310A is a successor (and almost the same as) the 20ish years old Klein & Hummel O300, so don't expect today's latest stuff in it.I thought that was odd too, given it's a pretty standard analog crossever ir...I'm guessing they're referring to the decay, which is actually pretty good, throughout the fr...
Sure, there is no manufacturer (known to me) who would not have "marketing speak". At least Neumann delivers data to support it (mostly).My guess is - marketing speak for a closed box bass system. Therefore lower group delay and so on.
The chip amps should be TDA7293s, and IIRC all of Neumann’s drivers are manufactured by Peerless. They aren’t off the shelf designs but there’s a lot of parts commonality like the baskets and cones with the rest of their lineup.Some curiosity: What do we know about the KH310's drivers and assembly? I found a teardown on youtubeand noted a couple of things:
1. the internal power supply uses what appear to be overall good quality parts (Yageo caps), which is a good sign. Do we know what chip amps are used?
2. The woofer looks to be of excellent quality - nice cast frame, decent sized motor. Is it an in-house design or did they get someone else to make it for them? The surround is an interesting choice because it appears to be segmented. Maybe to break up a resonant mode in the surround?
3. Is the midrange sealed? Must be, because it doesn't appear to have a housing inside the main cabinet. Interesting choice vs ATC to add the waveguide to the cabinet instead of the mounting flange - maybe simplifies driver production?
4. The tweeter is definitely sealed and appears to have a larger magnet than the midrange - just goes to show how strong neo is compared to ferrite.
Why do you say that? Despite its age it still performs greatly in its class and is even in some disciplines superb.It seriously needs an update
To work with the MA-1 without a subwoofer and to get auto-sleep, I guess.Why do you say that? Despite its age it still performs greatly in its class and is even in some disciplines superb.
It seriously needs an update
By how much?I Guess people have google them more lately and the price has risen, at least on Thomann!
Sure or also to get a linear phase crossover, but those are all not real big acoustic improvements.To work with the MA-1 without a subwoofer and to get auto-sleep, I guess.
The paint?It seriously needs an update

What I would rather like to see in its successor is a rotatable mid/high unit for also standing mounting like the KH420 and bigger Focal have.
By how much?
The KH420 and Focal are delivered in a vertical orientation but you can rotate them to use on a console, but the KH310 gives you only the horizontal orientation to use on a console.The rotatable mid/high is for a use on a console.
