Studio & Recording / Studio Monitors
NEUMANN KH 120 AG Two Way Nearfield Monitor-Pair
The KH 120 is Neumann's trailblazer model and development yardstick for compact studio monitors. It has been a reference class for close-range monitoring since 2011. Enormous power reserves meet high-precision sound conduction. The result: Maximum signal fidelity and distinctly contoured transients across the entire, neutrally designed frequency response. This enables you to precisely control tonal depth, spatial image and even the smallest details in the mix. The KH 120's frequency response is smooth and natural, delivering bass remarkably well for this size monitor. Its midrange presentation is detailed and revealing, neither overly forward nor recessive. The KH 120 is fitted with a full complement of control settings for integrating it into a variety of acoustical environments. The KH 120 is a true reference monitor, and worthy of the Neumann badge.
