Neumann - KH 80 DSP + HD 480 PRO Housse
This pack combines stereo listening via speakers with a headphone monitoring solution, enabling you to work with precision in a variety of conditions. The two Neumann KH 80 DSP headphones allow you to monitor the mix in a room, whilst the Sennheiser HD 480 PRO offers isolated and detailed listening, with a carrying case included.
Composition of the package
Presentation
The KH 80 DSPs form the heart of the system for stereo work. Their compact design and DSP processing ensure controlled sound reproduction whilst allowing the speakers’ behaviour to be adapted to their environment. In particular, they enable you to work on the overall balance of a mix, depth, stereo width and coherence between the various elements.
The HD 480 PRO provides a different listening perspective. Its closed-back design minimises the influence of external noise and allows you to focus on the details of the signal, which can be particularly useful for checking effects, background noise, subtle elements in an arrangement or certain aspects of the mix that require a more isolated listening environment.
This complementarity allows you to regularly compare how the project sounds on two different systems and to identify any imbalances more easily. Switching from speakers to headphones thus becomes a genuine monitoring tool rather than simply an alternative listening option.
The inclusion of the carrying case also adds a practical dimension to the bundle. The headphones can be stored and transported separately without requiring any additional accessories, whilst the KH 80 DSPs remain dedicated to the main monitoring setup.
Together, they form a versatile solution for music production, mixing, composition, post-production and audio applications related to video, offering reference listening on speakers and complementary monitoring via headphones.
