One of the major improvements is the DSP-managed electronics, which allows linear phase crossovers and automatic monitor alignment by means of Neumann's revolutionary MA1. All acoustic parameters have also been improved. The new version features even less distortion, deeper bass, higher maximum sound pressure level and even better resolution.
The redesigned enclosure is now made from MDF, a more durable and even stiffer material than the aluminum previously used. The woofer has a completely new design. The MMD (Mathematically Modeled Dispersion) waveguide was adopted for the design of the new enclosure. And there are dozens of additional enhancements, not to mention patent-pending amplifier technology that delivers superior audio performance with Class-D power efficiency. The new series also includes AES67 options and is available in anthracite and white.
The KH120II is a significant evolution for an application that has seen strong growth over the past few years: near-field monitoring is essential not only for broadcast, OB vans and demo or recording studios, but also for event streaming and live recordings, where audio experts need to make the most of ever-changing work environments. The KH120II is the worthy successor to the venerable KH120A. Combined with the potential of the MA1, it is the new guardian of perfection for the next generation.
