Description
Neumann KH 150 AES67 Active 6.5-inch 2-Way Studio Monitor (White)
This specific model features AES67 connectivity, placing it at the forefront of modern studio technology. It integrates seamlessly into sophisticated audio-over-IP (AoIP) networks like Ravenna and Dante®-compatible systems, ensuring pristine, low-latency signal transmission for broadcast and large-scale post-production workflows. Combined with its powerful onboard DSP engine, which enables precise room calibration via the optional MA 1 system, the KH 150 AES67 is a formidable, future-proof monitoring solution that upholds Neumann's legendary standards for audio fidelity.
Key Features
- High-Precision DSP Engine:Ensures exceptional linearity and phase correction for a transparent, uncolored sound. Your mixing decisions become more reliable and accurate.
- Deep Bass, Low Distortion:A newly designed 6.5” woofer delivers powerful, articulate bass down to 39 Hz, minimizing distortion even at high sound pressure levels.
- AES67 Audio-over-IP:Integrates flawlessly into Ravenna and Dante® AES67 networks, offering high-resolution, low-latency audio streaming for professional workflows.
- Mathematically Modeled Dispersion™ (MMD™):The MMD™ waveguide creates a wide, consistent sweet spot and significantly reduces desk reflections, ensuring reliable sound quality across various listening positions.
- Advanced Room Calibration:Pairs with Neumann's MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment system (sold separately) to precisely adapt the speaker's response to your room's unique acoustics.
- Energy Efficient Amplification:Patented amplifier technology combines superior audio performance with the high efficiency of Class D amplification, consuming only 17 W at idle.
- Versatile Connectivity:Offers balanced analog XLR and S/PDIF digital inputs alongside the RJ-45 AES67 port, providing flexible connection options for any studio environment.
- Compact, Powerful Design:Achieves reference-grade performance in a compact enclosure suitable for nearfield and midfield applications in small to medium-sized rooms.
Why Neumann KH 150 AES67 (White) Is Better
The KH 150 strategically fills the gap between the compact KH 120 and the three-way KH 310. Compared to the acclaimed KH 120, it provides a significantly deeper bass response (39 Hz vs 52 Hz), delivering a fuller picture of the low-end without an immediate need for a subwoofer. Its DSP engine represents a major technological step forward from purely analog designs, enabling sophisticated room correction with the MA 1 system—a critical feature many competitors lack. The inclusion of AES67 connectivity on this variant distinctly separates it from traditional studio monitors, making it an intelligent investment for modern broadcast, post-production, and networked studio setups.
Advantages
* Hear Every Detail: Uncompromisingly honest sound reproduction reveals subtle issues in your mix with surgical precision.
* Trust Your Translation: Mixes completed on the KH 150 translate exceptionally well to consumer devices, cars, and club systems.
* Confident Low-End: Make accurate decisions on bass and kick drums without the guesswork often required in smaller rooms.
For Mastering Engineers:
* Reference-Grade Linearity: The ruler-flat frequency and phase response are non-negotiable for making precise mastering adjustments.
* Perfect Pair Matching: DSP control ensures every KH 150 unit is perfectly matched, providing a stable and accurate stereo image.
* High Headroom: Ample power to handle highly dynamic material without compression or distortion.
For Broadcast & Post-Production:
* Seamless AoIP Integration: The AES67 standard allows for simple, robust integration into complex Dante® and Ravenna networks.
* Fatigue-Free Listening: Engineered for long sessions, ensuring your ears remain fresh and your judgment stays sharp through demanding projects.
* Exceptional Dialogue Clarity: Superb midrange resolution makes dialogue editing and mixing intuitive and precise.
Best Suitable For
- Professional Mixing Engineers: Because they require a monitor that tells the unvarnished truth for mixes that translate anywhere.
- Mastering Studios: For its reference-grade linearity and phase coherency, critical for final mastering decisions.
- High-End Project Studios: For producers wanting the acoustic power and accuracy of a large studio monitor in a compact form.
- Broadcast and Post-Production Facilities: Because its AES67 integration streamlines complex audio-over-IP workflows.
- Discerning Composers and Musicians: For an inspiring yet accurate listening experience that reveals the true detail and emotion in their work.

FAQs - Neumann KH 150 AES67 Active 6.5" 2-Way Studio Monitor (White)
Q: Are the Neumann KH 150 monitors sold individually or as a pair?
A: Neumann studio monitors, including the KH 150, are sold as single units. You would need to purchase two for a stereo setup.
Q: What is the main advantage of the AES67 version over the standard KH 150?
A: The AES67 version allows for direct integration into audio-over-IP networks like Ravenna and Dante. This is crucial for modern broadcast, post-production, and large studio facilities that use networked audio.
Q: Do I need a separate subwoofer with the KH 150?
A: With a bass extension down to 39 Hz, the KH 150 provides sufficient low-end for many music production tasks in small to medium rooms. However, for film scoring or genres with significant sub-bass content, pairing it with a Neumann subwoofer like the KH 750 is recommended.
Q: How does the room correction feature work?
A: The monitor's onboard DSP works with the separately sold Neumann MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment kit. The MA 1 microphone measures your room's acoustic response, and the software creates a custom correction profile which is then uploaded to the monitors for optimal performance in your specific space.
Q: Can I connect the KH 150 directly to my laptop or computer?
A: Yes, you can connect it to the analog output of a high-quality audio interface using an XLR cable. For digital connection, you can use the S/PDIF input from a compatible interface.
Q: How does the KH 150 compare to the smaller KH 120?
A: The KH 150 offers a deeper bass response (39 Hz vs 52 Hz), higher maximum SPL, and features a more advanced DSP engine for room correction. It's a significant step up in performance, especially for full-range music production.
Q: Does the AES67 port support Dante?
A: Yes, AES67 is a standard that allows for interoperability between different AoIP systems. The KH 150 AES67 will work within Dante networks that support AES67 mode.
Q: What is the ideal listening distance for these monitors?
A: The KH 150 is designed for nearfield to midfield listening distances, typically recommended between 1 to 2.5 meters (3 to 8 feet).
Q: Can I place the KH 150 monitors horizontally?
A: For optimal dispersion and stereo imaging from the MMD™ waveguide, it is strongly recommended to use the monitors in their vertical orientation.
Q: What is the warranty period for Neumann monitors in India?
A: Your purchase from an authorized dealer like us comes with the official manufacturer warranty provided by Neumann's distribution partner in India. Please check the official Neumann India site for the current warranty duration.
Q: Do you provide a GST invoice for business purchases?
A: Yes, we provide a proper GST invoice with all purchases, which you can use to claim input tax credit for your business.
Q: Are these monitors magnetically shielded?
A: Modern flat-panel displays (LCD, LED, OLED) are not susceptible to magnetic interference, so magnetic shielding is no longer a necessary feature in modern studio monitors like the KH 150.
Q: What kind of stands should I use?
A: We recommend using sturdy, high-quality speaker stands (like IsoAcoustics or similar) that place the tweeters at your ear level and provide good isolation from your desk or floor.
Q: Is the white finish prone to getting dirty?
A: The white finish is a high-quality, durable paint. Like any white equipment, it can show dirt more easily than black, but it can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth.
Q: What cables are included in the box?
A: The box includes a standard Indian power cable for the monitor. You will need to purchase your own XLR, S/PDIF, or Ethernet cables for audio signal connection.
