Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Monitor Alignment Kit 2 US?
The kit includes two Neumann KH 80 DSP studio monitors and one MA 1 automatic monitor alignment microphone and software package for room calibration.
What does the MA 1 calibration system do?
The MA 1 measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening environment and applies DSP corrections to the KH 80 speakers, compensating for room reflections, standing waves, and frequency response anomalies so you hear a more accurate representation of your audio.
Can I use this kit for surround sound setups?
This particular kit is configured as a stereo pair. However, the KH 80 DSP monitors and MA 1 system support multi-channel configurations, so additional speakers can be purchased and calibrated separately to expand to surround formats.
Do the KH 80 DSP monitors require an external amplifier?
No, the KH 80 DSP monitors are active (self-powered) speakers with built-in amplification rated at a combined 400 watts maximum output, so no external amp is needed.
Is the MA 1 calibration microphone reusable for future recalibrations?
Yes, you can recalibrate as often as needed — whenever you rearrange your studio, change rooms, or adjust speaker placement, simply re-run the MA 1 alignment process.
