The KH 310 is designed for use as a nearfield monitor and as a front speaker in medium-sized or rear speakers in large multi-channel systems. It is ideally suited for use in project, music and post-production studios, broadcast control centres and OB vans for multitrack recording, mixing and mastering. The active 3-way studio monitor KH 310 is characterised by a Mathematically Modeled DispersionT Waveguide (MMDT), universal acoustic controls, multiple input options and a wide range of mounting hardware. The speaker offers maximum flexibility in dealing with a wide range of acoustic conditions, source devices and installation locations. The KH 310 represents the state of the art in acoustic and electronic simulation and measurement technologies and guarantees maximum sonic precision.

In recent years, the audio industry has produced a large number of new, high-quality multi-channel audio formats, which place considerably higher demands on the professional production environment in the studio. The Blu-ray format, for example, makes it possible to store an increased number of discrete audio channels with high resolution (7.1). To meet these requirements, Neumann has created a 7.1 High Definition Bass Manager with the newly developed electronics of the KH 810, which fulfils all studio requirements from mono to the latest 7.1 HD formats. With eight analogue input channels, flexible connection is guaranteed in the modern studio environment. Four switchable LFE modes guarantee compatibility with all formats and industry standards. Extensive acoustic adaptation options and a frequency separation of 24 dB/oct allow optimum integration into the existing studio acoustics. The built-in 8-channel volume control in conjunction with the optionally available wired remote control can be used to realise source-independent central system control. The electronics of the KH 810 can be detached in order to adapt the cabling flexibly. The latest amplifier technology and extensive research and optimisation of the speaker chassis used have resulted in the highest degree of bass precision and sound neutrality. The low-resonance cabinet and the flow-optimised bass reflex channels ensure dry and extremely low-distortion bass reproduction down to 18 Hz, even at high levels. Multisubwoofer systems can easily be set up using the sum output of the electronics. This allows speaker arrangements such as Plane Wave Bass Arrays TM (PWBA) to be implemented, which dramatically improve the lateral mode behaviour in the listening room via cylindrical wave generation. The KH 810 was developed as an extension of our extensive range of studio monitors. It can be used alone or in combination with several subwoofers to realise large systems with very high maximum level requirements. The KH 810 is therefore the ideal low-frequency extension for music, broadcasting and post-production for use in tracking, mixing and mastering. It can preferably be positioned close to the wall or, thanks to the bass reflex ports on the front, in the wall and can be freely combined with all our monitors in multi-channel systems.

It is worth mentioning that the DSP, which uses a high-quality A/D converter from BurrBrown, only filters the woofer of the subwoofer. The signal path for the satellite speakers remains purely analogue and undergoes no A/D, D/A conversion. With the "Pure Satellite" function, when activated, the subwoofer and the DSP filter section are bypassed completely. In this case, the satellite signals are routed unfiltered to the outputs and only the volume of the satellites can be varied.The volume of the subwoofer and the entire stereo system can be controlled using the remote control supplied as standard with the subwoofer - all from the comfort of your listening position.The special feature of our extremely powerful and high-precision subwoofers is the passive cone used, which replaces the usual bass reflex channel. This design completely eliminates disturbing flow noise caused by air turbulence. Audible tube resonances (with lambda/2 + multiples) are due to the principle of an open tube on both sides (bass reflex channel) and can be eliminated with the passive membrane design in all EVE Audio subwoofers. Furthermore, the suspension of the passive cone has a restoring force below the tuning frequency, which reduces inaudible subsonic excursions. This means less excursion in the operating range and thus reduced intermodulation distortion.A passive diaphragm enables a particularly low tuning or lower cut-off frequency in a compact housing.

The Genelec 8020D is a professional compact nearfield monitor. It delivers an analytical sound image without colouration for fatigue-free monitoring and objective mixing. With its small dimensions, it is suitable for small studios, post-production, broadcast and mobile applications. Protective grilles in front of the drivers simplify transport.The stable and low-resonance housing of this RAW version is made of untreated aluminium and is particularly environmentally friendly to manufacture as it is not painted. Rounded cabinet edges and the optimised sound guide ensure balanced dispersion, very good spatial imaging and a wide listening zone. The stereo image is precise and stable. Despite the small size, there is a long bass reflex channel. It enables precise and deep bass reproduction. The frequency range can be extended down to 30 Hz with the matching 7040 subwoofer.Switchable filters allow the speaker to be customised to the installation location and room acoustics. The IsoPod stand decouples the monitor from the floor and allows it to be aligned to the listening position. Threaded holes and suitable accessories facilitate wall or ceiling mounting.

The new IN-8 2nd Wave has an updated amplifier module and enables 12 dB less self-noise with a 3dB higher output. The tuning has been refined for even smoother high-frequency behaviour and the boundary EQs have been updated to enable practical settings. A new feature here is the preset for horizontal speaker positioning. Further updates include lighter transducer cones for faster transient response and an improved cabinet design for less natural resonance.As a further development of the successful LP-8, the IN-8 2nd Wave features its sophisticated bass reflex system and the same level-resistant woofer. However, instead of the usual tweeter with 3D imaging waveguides, a coaxial midrange/tweeter combination has been installed here. The profile-optimised 4″ midrange driver also functions as a waveguide. By limiting the peak excursion to 1 mm, intermodulation distortion, which otherwise occurs in coaxial systems, could be avoided. The midrange driver also relieves the woofer and tweeter, so the IN-8 2nd Wave plays more harmoniously and with less distortion than conventional 2-way studio monitors.The crossover frequency of the woofer is 280 Hz, making the IN-8 2nd Wave an acoustic point source. Phase cancellations on the vertical axis will be sought in vain here. Instead, the IN-8 2nd Wave has an even dispersion behaviour over the entire frequency response with excellent depth graduation and localisation. The stereo image also benefits from the coaxial arrangement and enables a detailed mix. Thanks to the "Boundary EQ" familiar from the LP series, the IN-8 2nd Wave can be adapted to different studio environments just as easily as its sister models.
