Product Rating Product Review What a great set of monitors. I was using JBl 308p monitors and thought I should upgrade. I had no idea how this would change my recording. For the first time I have real stereo imaging, my recordings sound great and the mixes are very accurate. The bass is amazing. The 5.25 woofer is terrific . The frequencies are not fighting each other and the different tracks come through clearly and beautifully. I wish I had bought these years ago. They are simply the best.

Product Review I have owned the focal shape 50’s, miced on Adam a7x’s, and several cheaper monitors (Kali lp6’s, which I LOVED! Hs8’s 5’s jbl 305’s, and a few more). These KH120’s have changed the game for me. Stereo field is amazing, I actually had to listen to some songs through them to gather the image they were producing. They revealed a crap ton of issues in the low mids, hit in the lows really well and have a very honest overall sound. I use these along with Sonarworks Reference and in a well treated room. I don’t foresee myself upgrading unless I’m ready to drop 5 figures on a set. Clients even hear the difference and my studio friends have become fans, as well! Get them, try em out and enjoy!

Clarity and Definition in a not so perfect room

Product Review I upgraded from Focal Alpha 50’s. I noticed a big jump in 3D space and heard nuances that could not hear with the Focal. Mixes translate better to the outside world. A step in right direction for faster mixing.

Product Review we were looking to upgrade our monitors to a top of the line selection. These monitors came highly recommended by some of the top producers in the electronic music scene, trusted for clarity and precision over a plethora of options. We purchased with the payment plan and delivery was fast and easy. These monitors are truly a compact wonder, don’t let the physical size confuse you, they produce very clear Very loud and true sound, a very warm and accurate sound that assures you won’t get ear fatigue! We have had quite a few session with these monitors now and hours pass by before we need a break, due to the sound being so warm and velvety. In conclusion we highly recommend these monitors for any producer who wishes to capture true sound on a cutting edge level.

Product Review I've been using the KH120's now for over a year and I love them. Don't let the small 10x7x7 size fool you, these Neumann monitors get louder than you would think, but stay clean and smooth sounding. I've used many quality monitors over the years and for the price these are keepers. Mixes translate well, and just add a sub if you need club like low end. These are hi,mid, and low settings on back to adjust them to your room. These Neumann's are so good I want their bigger monitors at some point. Great Neumann build quality so you know they will last many years, buy with confidence.

Best sounding set of Monitors i've ever had.

Product Review I was blown away and surprised how well these sounded during mixing and playback. I needed a set monitors that would sound good with playing back heavy guitar and bass guitar tones without fading and sounding to harsh. As guitar player, I was unsure of what kind of studio recording monitors to go with. I decided to go with these set Neumann KH120's as my main monitors after watching several videos and reviews they have received...And they sound amazing!! I Highly recommend.

Product Review I had been mixing in, first these little Samson monitors. They had the slightest but of distortion, so I started using an old pair of Tannoys from a friend. Better low end, but colored the sound. I pretty much believed that you can learn to mix on anything so I kept them around. But I didn't like the separate power amp or the sound of its fan. Then a producer friend of mine who ACTUALLY produces pop music with big artists played in the radio told me about these. A friend of his who mixed Rhianna uses them and swears by them so he bought a pair for his studio upstate. He loved them so much he got a pair for his home studio in NYC. I remembered Ryan "Fluff" Bruce saying in a video that when he got his JBLs, they sounded great, but he loved his KH120s so he went back to them. So...I took the plunge and man am I glad. Literally the first sound that came out of them when I turned them on gave me goosebumps. I heard nuances I hadn't heard before. It's like have a new studio.

Product Review I recently did an upgrade and replaced my Digidesign 192 with an HD Omni and decided to upgrade to the KH-120s as well. The difference in my mixes was night and day. After configuring the Omni (PITA!) and playing back a finished mix I was blown away. There were a couple problems that jumped out (floor tom, a cymbal and some bass notes) that I was able to quickly fix. The KH-120s are very detailed and you'll hear things on these that other speakers will mask with hype. I can't even begin to say how happy I am with these. * I don't do dance music or rap. If you do the (very expensive) subwoofer may be needed. I work with real instruments.

Product Review I can't believe the big sound they deliver for the size. I use these along my PMC mastering monitors and my DynAudio bm6a. They fill in the gap for sure. Love em!

Your general opinion of this product. Wonderfully accurate and loud (when required) monitors. Extremely well made speaker. Very heavy! Manual is very instructive as to how to place them and settings are very flexible. The sound is exactly what I was seeking for I record mostly acoustic and acoustic-like (samples) jazz and classical music. Smooth, detailed and accurate. So far, so good.
