Neumann KH 120 II Active Studio Monitor

The Neumann KH 120 II is the latest evolution of Neumann's acclaimed nearfield monitoring system, delivering exceptional accuracy, improved low-frequency performance, and advanced DSP-assisted optimisation in a compact professional studio monitor. Designed for recording, mixing, mastering, broadcast, post-production, and immersive audio applications, the KH 120 II provides the precision and transparency required for critical listening environments.

Next-generation monitoring accuracy

Building on the reputation of the original KH 120, the KH 120 II combines advanced acoustic engineering with powerful DSP technology to deliver an even more accurate and reliable monitoring experience. Every aspect of the design has been optimised to provide exceptional clarity, precise imaging, and outstanding translation across different playback systems.

Mathematically Modelled Dispersion waveguide

Neumann's Mathematically Modelled Dispersion™ (MMD™) waveguide provides controlled directivity and a wide listening area, ensuring consistent tonal balance both on and off axis. This results in a larger sweet spot and more reliable monitoring decisions, even in challenging studio environments.

DSP-assisted performance and room optimisation

The KH 120 II incorporates advanced DSP processing to enhance accuracy and consistency. Combined with Neumann's monitoring ecosystem, the speaker can be optimised for a wide range of acoustic environments, helping achieve more precise monitoring regardless of room size or placement constraints.

Designed for professional production environments

Whether you're recording, mixing, mastering, editing, or producing content for music, film, television, or broadcast, the KH 120 II delivers the detail and transparency needed for professional workflows. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for desktop setups, project studios, editing suites, and larger production facilities alike.

Flexible installation options

The KH 120 II supports a wide range of mounting solutions, allowing it to be integrated into stereo, surround, and immersive monitoring systems. Its versatile design makes it suitable as a nearfield monitor, rear channel speaker, or part of a larger multichannel monitoring environment.
