Neumann KH150

@Ilkka Rissanen
As you already mentioned this is a Neumann thread, so back to topic! What will Genelec´s response to the KH150?
Your 8040B still have 90W class AB so maybe an updated? The 8340A got already 150W class C and are more compareable to the KH150 due to GLM. So maybe the pricing will be rechecked or a new line?

We need an 8040C and 8050C asap

ps. This is not a Genelec thread.

I am not sure if we can have you leave the newly arranged „Ilkka Rissanen investigation sub thread“ that easily, Sir. We will later ask the moderation to split all your answers to a new one. So let’s continue with the deadly things, what …

Is it the lightening or is the vertical position of the dome higher, the upper half shorter than the lower of the waveguide?

 

[Rednaxela]

I think it’s lighting. It’s less so in the video.

Or maybe the 3D designer forgot to drag a control point when stretching out the KH80?

 

[Rednaxela]

Ok, I’ll get my coat.

It isn't a point symmetrical design which makes a lot of sense since the mixing console bounce or floor bounce is a problem where you want higher attenuation.

Wow nice
Aluminum cabinet like KH120?
Is that the Kh120 next to it or kh80?

Interesting they ditched the BNC connector.
Significantly larger than the KH120, you can see the difference even more clearly in this photo (Source):

All that's missing now is a remote control for the volume.

No, same as KH 80

 

[Rednaxela]

Thanks
A little disappointing but I guess you can't have everything

 

[DSJR]

Oh this ain't fair..... Love the look in white too...

Judging from the scale between the woofer and tweeter, I reckon that's a kh120 on the side.

Any sound comparison with KH120 or is it too early?

correct, it´s a KH 120

yes, because i hear it only for 30 minutes, but the first impression is very good, deeper (about 40 Hz). I test it in 3 m (think it not the ideal distance), but the focus was excellent

@Hoerzone welcome to ASR. Thanks for the info.
