Overview

A 3-way studio monitor for precise imaging and clear sound.

The Kali Audio IN-5 powered studio monitor in white delivers exceptional clarity and imaging with its innovative 3-way design and precise engineering. Featuring a 5" woofer, 4" optimized midrange, and 1" textile dome tweeter, this tri-amped system provides 160W of Class-D power for dynamic and accurate sound reproduction. With a frequency response extending from 39Hz–25kHz and a maximum SPL of 112dB, the IN-5 ensures every detail of your mix is faithfully represented. Designed for critical listening environments, this monitor offers professional-grade performance that translates effortlessly to any recording or production setup.

Three-Way Architecture for Unmatched Clarity

The IN-5 stands out with its advanced 3-way architecture, positioning the midrange and tweeter coaxially for an acoustic point source. This design eliminates phase and directivity issues common in traditional monitors, resulting in lifelike imaging and detailed sound reproduction. The dedicated midrange driver handles frequencies from 280Hz–2800Hz, freeing the woofer to focus on low-end precision while reducing distortion. Whether crafting intricate mixes or mastering tracks, this monitor's 3-way design ensures every frequency is represented with stunning accuracy.

Customizable Boundary EQ Settings

Featuring six boundary EQ settings, this model adapts effortlessly to diverse studio environments. Whether placed on stands, a desk, or against a wall, its onboard DSP ensures optimal performance by compensating for placement-based acoustic anomalies. Users can also adjust HF and LF trim settings to tailor the monitor's response to their room, delivering consistent playback across setups. This fine-tuned calibration capability makes the IN-5 a reliable tool for engineers seeking precision and adaptability in their monitoring system.

High-Performance Electronics for Accurate Playback

The IN-5 is equipped with tri-amped Class-D electronics, distributing 80W to the woofer, 40W to the midrange and 40W to the tweeter. This configuration ensures each driver operates within its ideal range, minimizing distortion and maximizing clarity. With total system THD under 1% across most frequencies, this monitor delivers clean, undistorted playback at high volumes. Inputs include TRS, XLR and RCA options for seamless integration with studio setups, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of audio interfaces and devices.

Durable Construction With Front-Ported Design

Designed for studio-grade durability, the IN-5 features a robust front-ported enclosure that minimizes resonance while delivering extended bass response. Its compact dimensions make it easy to position without compromising sound quality. At 23 lb., this monitor is built to withstand the demands of professional use while maintaining stability on stands or desks. The durable construction ensures long-term reliability for consistent performance in critical listening environments.
