Neumann KH 810 II AES67 10" Powered Subwoofer With DSP & AoIP Interface

Bass isn’t just heard—it’s felt, and the Neumann KH 810 II AES67 10" powered subwoofer with DSP and AoIP interface delivers it with precision and control. Built around a novel long-throw 10" driver with ELFF (Extremely Linear Force Factor) technology, this unit extends frequency response down to 16Hz—twice the output of the earlier KH 750 DSP. It features a DSP-managed bass manager for setups up to 7.1.4, making it valuable for immersive systems and multichannel arrays. Room alignment is possible with MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment (sold separately), even for analog KH monitors, so users can calibrate their entire speaker system. Redundant AES67 audio over IP ports and BNC digital outputs let engineers route up to 12 network channels and connect up to 11 studio monitors, streamlining complex installations without sacrificing sonic accuracy.

Neumann DSP-Controlled Bass Management Extends System Performance

True low-end control starts with smart DSP. This subwoofer uses a DSP-controlled bass manager that supports multichannel systems up to 7.1.4. The DSP handles analog and digital signal routing, crossover points, and frequency response, integrating the sub seamlessly with Neumann monitors. MA 1 compatibility allows for automatic alignment, optimizing both phase and response for every speaker in the array. The result is tight bass extension and precise integration, so engineers can trust what they hear when mixing immersive audio or film scores.

Advanced Neumann Connectivity With AES67 and Multichannel Outputs

Studios run smoother when every connection just works. Dual AES67 network ports deliver redundant audio over IP connections, complying with standards like ST 2110 and RAVENNA. The sub can act as a hub for up to 12 network audio channels, distributing signal to 11 monitors through analog Sub D25 or AES3 BNC outputs. Every analog input and output is electronically balanced, while BNC connectors can link to S/PDIF inputs using simple adapters. This connectivity lets studios design flexible and future-proof monitoring layouts for broadcast, film, or music production.

Neumann Intuitive Setup and Control Features

No engineer wants to waste hours chasing settings. The KH 810 II includes a mode switch for local or network-based calibration, so users can select between manual settings or remote adjustment with MA 1 software. Stereo operation uses XLR inputs and outputs for daisy chaining or sub arrays. Daisy chain and ground lift functions help reduce noise and simplify wiring, while large headroom power amps and protection limiters guard against overload. The auto standby function saves energy when not in use and can be disabled in the app for continuous sessions.

Neumann Cabinet and Driver Construction for Low Distortion

Great bass depends on a cabinet built to handle it. The cabinet uses thick, ultra-stiff wood and a tough painted finish. Built-in rubber feet isolate vibrations, and an impact-resistant grille protects the driver from accidental kicks or gear bumps. Internal bracing and self-damping prevent standing waves, so the sub delivers tight, clean bass even at maximum SPL. The ELFF driver basket reduces rocking and air noise, supporting accurate sound for critical listening environments.

Engineer Experience With Neumann KH 810 II AES67

Confidence in the low end changes everything in a studio. Engineers working in film, music, or broadcast can rely on this subwoofer for extended low-frequency monitoring in rooms that need precise bass and flexible routing. The ability to align both analog and digital Neumann monitors with MA 1 ensures that every speaker in the system delivers phase-accurate, distortion-free sound. When paired with a KH 310 or KH 150, the unit supports immersive mixes with deep, controlled lows, helping users deliver detailed work for demanding clients.
