The KH120ii sound better as KH120. They use a better lowmid driver, mids are more clear. They have a better soundstage and can deliver more lowend.
Not sure how much is left after a calibration with KH750 ... for sure the cleaner midrange. Is it enough to swap and pay the price ... no one tested up to now as far as I know.

Happy KH120ii owner after 6 months of use for both music listening and mixing/mastering of vocal dialogue with music in my studio - they definitely go deep enough for my needs!
You don't miss the bass on EDM?

I am actually very surprised how little the KH750 is used in music after MA1 calibration.(listening to aphex twin, daft punk) Especially at low volume. Default crossover is super high, I could hear male voices (frequencies) when kh120II failed to wake up. What sub does actually is makes the mids of 120II more clean, unloading the 120II's drivers.

This is normal.
