Configuring and using the KH 120
Switching the KH 120 on/off
X
Set the on/o switch to:
• “ON” to switch on the loudspeaker. The Neumann logo lights up, provided that is has not
been switched o (see page 16).
• “OFF” to switch o the loudspeaker. The Neumann logo goes o.
There is a five second delay before sound can be heard from the loudspeaker in order
to avoid noises (pops) from preceding equipment switched on at the same time. Con-
versely, switching o the loudspeaker immediately mutes the audio.
Adjusting the frequency response
When all its acoustical controls are set to 0 dB, the KH 120 loudspeaker is designed to have
a flat frequency response in anechoic conditions. When the loudspeaker is installed in your
monitoring environment, the response changes. The same loudspeaker installed in dierent
positions in the same room may require dierent acoustical control settings. In a symmetrical
installation, left/right pairs (front or back) will probably have the same acoustical settings.
X
Before using your loudspeaker system for the first time, calibrate the frequency response of
the loudspeakers in the room in order to obtain the desired response.
X
Repeat the above step if you change the physical conditions in your studio.
X
At your listening position, determine the frequency response of each loudspeaker.
