Neumann KH 310 Overview The right channel Neumann’s KH 310 Three-Way Active Studio Monitor is a tri-amplified monitor with a maximum continuous output of 290 watts. It may be used as a near-field monitor, a front or back loudspeaker in multichannel systems, and for tracking, mixing, and mastering. The KH 310 has an 8.25″ woofer, a 3″ midrange driver, and a 1″ tweeter housed in a sealed, three-way cabinet designed to eliminate standing waves and improve quick bass transient response. Neumann’s Elliptical Mathematically Modeled Dispersion (MMD) waveguide was designed specifically for mixing on a large-format console. It offers a smoother off-axis response, thereby expanding the KH 310’s “sweet spot” and allowing you to roam across the console without sacrificing audio quality. With its four-position bass, low-mid, and treble acoustic settings, the KH 310 can work well in a range of acoustic conditions. The KH 310’s inbuilt mounting points provide versatile installation options. The accompanying self-adhesive feet provide stability when mounted on speaker stands. The alloy fabric dome produces high-frequency reproduction with little distortion. The elliptical Mathematically Modeled Dispersion (MMD) waveguide has wide horizontal and limited vertical dispersion, allowing for smoother off-axis response in different acoustic settings. It also provides for freedom of movement around the mixing console and decreases reflections. Simulated drivers for modeling strategies to reduce non-linear (intermodulation) distortion. The fabric dome, neodymium magnet midrange driver accurately reproduces midrange frequencies crucial for speaking and voices. The lightweight dome has superior transient responsiveness and fewer breakdown modes than cone designs, and the magnet decreases harmonic and intermodulation distortion. The long-throw composite sandwich cone bass driver with ELFF and ribbed surround reduces break-up modes and distortion at high sound volumes. Even at large excursions, a linear pistonic motor produces extremely minimal harmonic distortion—reduced radial break-up modes on the ribbed surround. The dual-color, dimmable Neumann logo indicates the operating status and activation of the robust protective system. It is dimmable for low-lighting or behind-the-screen applications. The small sealed three-way cabinet is magnetically protected to eliminate standing wave resonances, allowing for quick bass transient response and eliminating intermodulation distortion in the midrange. The speaker’s one-piece front panel minimizes diffraction and provides better frequency response. The Class AB amplifiers provide significant headroom and enhanced transient response. The woofer, midrange dome, and tweeter all feature separate thermal limiters to safeguard the voice coils. During final testing, hand alignment allows KH 310s to be “pair-matched” with other HK 310s. The acoustic controls include four positions: bass, low-mid, and treble. Integrated ground lift reduces noise in low-quality electrical settings and ground loops. The KH 310 offers several mounting hardware choices for deployment in different places.
