When can we expect a review of the Neumann KH420

[Vintage57]

I’ve been a member of this forum since February 2018.
I have been waiting for a review of the KH420 for 4 years.
I find it difficult to believe that if Amir wanted to make it happen with his resources and connections he could have.
What’s the holdup?

Anyone else interested please vote

Is there a review queue?...it would be fun to see what is upcoming...

I wait patiently for the review: I am sure, that Amir will measure the speaker in the future, when he finds the time and someone ships a speaker to his place. After all he provides us with his reviews for free and I am thankful for that!

Would like to see a test of the Genelec 8340 also....

A bit of a strange comment considering Amir's first speaker review was in 2020 . But if you want reliable third party measurements, soundandrecording.de has some:

Lol I don't doubt that you've been here since 2018! I'm just pointing out that Amir's first NFS speaker review happened in 2020. Not sure if anyone has sent him a KH420 to test

And your point is?

Amir doesn't often buy kit to review, especially expensive kit - and this speaker is. He relies on members sending it in, or manufacturers sending it in. Over to you.

Amir has one to test.

What Speakers Would You Like Amir To Measure Next?

I vote for the Sonos Five - vertical vs horizontal orientation - with and without trueplay (room correction) - with and without sub (presence of sub activates crossover which improves midrange clarity). Can still test Five alone and have a sub in a separate room so it doesn’t contribute to the...

Good point. I’m saying that since I’ve joined it would have been good to have had a seen review of this speaker. The KH420 has been around for a long time and is considered a top tier speaker.
