Neumann - KH 810 II

When you plug the Neumann KH 810 II into your control room, you immediately feel the bass take on another dimension. Its ability to go down to 16 Hz is not just a marketing ploy, but a real guarantee that every vibration, every kick impact or double bass note will settle in the room with authority. From stereo mixes to more ambitious 7.1.4 creations, this subwoofer becomes a stable foundation on which to build your sonic universe.

Where the Sub KH 810 II really makes a difference is with its integrated DSP engine, which allows you to precisely align your system and exploit the MA 1 calibration, so you can correct the response of your room and obtain a coherent result, whether your main listening is digital or analogue. It's a real technical safety net for working with confidence, even in imperfect acoustic environments. Engineers who have already had a taste of this precision know just how much it changes their relationship to the mix.

Beyond the DSP, Neumann has designed the KH 810 II as a real hub. With its 80 Hz, external, LFE 120 Hz or full range routing modes, it can be easily integrated into a variety of set-ups, from a high-end home studio to a broadcast post-production booth. Add to that ultra-detailed phase management (from 0° to 135°, plus inversion), and you've got a tool that leaves nothing to chance. Every adjustment becomes a brick in the edifice of your monitoring.

In terms of power, its Class D amplification feeds a 10" driver with firm, precise control, capable of reaching 109dB SPL without slipping. The bass reflex design with front vents ensures smooth bass delivery, even when the sub is placed close to a wall. This gives you the freedom to arrange your space without compromising the quality of your monitoring, which is rare in this category of tools.

The KH 810 II fits in naturally with the KH 150 or KH 310 monitors, forming sets calibrated for working on complex, immersive mixes. Its role is not simply to add bass, but to structure the sound image, make every detail more legible and give the certainty that what you hear in the control room will correspond in real life. In other words, this subwoofer acts as an artistic safeguard: it reveals intentions, highlights errors and makes every decision more conscious.
