same idea or same problem. I would like to upgrade my 310 to a full range system in connection with two 750s. there should be a way to do this in the app. I hope that neumann will improve it.
Was told by Neumann that it is possible with a little manual tweaking inside the app. At least we should expect this workaround solution to be officially published by Neumann until the software gets fully compatible with multiple subs!
When using the KH750 with analog monitors, the image in the video says a Network Switch is, "not necessary if special Ethernet cable is used." I looked up special Ethernet cables, but could not find one. What exactly is meant by "special Ethernet cable"?
@@GeorgNeumannGmbH Thanks for your unmatched passion for quality. I've set the KH750 to Network Control Mode and connected it to KH120s. The ethernet cable is connected directly to the computer.

Hi, I use a RME Babyface to calibrate the System with 2 KH80DSP and the Subwoofer KH750. The BF feeds the sound in to a Behringer Monitor2USB and then in the KH750 which feeds then 2 KH80. Would it be possible to change the path of wiring after the calibration/alignment and skip the BF and use the usb connection oft the Monitor2usb and connect the KH80 direct to the Monitor2usb also the subwoofer. So I can switch between 2 sets of monitors and use also headphones. Will the image change if the BF not in the path. The Monitor2usb works also as a soundcard, but is not recognized by the Neumann M1 software, also it has no phantom power. Would be great to have a monitor controller from Neumann who sits in the center of this system, like Genelec does it. Or can you recommend a better monitor controller?
The MA 1 measurement data is stored directly on the speaker's DSP. You can therefore also change the cable routing at the audio interface level as long as you use the same inputs on the KH 750. If you change the input signal on the subwoofer (for example you switch from analogue XLR to digital AES3) a new setup with AES3 input would have to be created in MA 1 and a new measurement would also have to be carried out. Regarding Monitor Controller please have a look on the Neumann MT 48.
Hello, upon setting up the KH80’s and KH750 for alignment, could I then connect the kh750 and KH80’s to a monitor controller instead, as I have multiple sets of speakers that I need to switch between them whilst working. What is the best way to do this?
Hi Ria, you can use your monitor controller in the alignment process. Your signal routing does not have to change here. Don't forget to turn off the hardware monitoring during the calibration process though. For further questions, please contact oliver.westphal@sennheiser.com or call +493920372741.
Hi, I was hoping you could help me out here. I bought 2x KH150 with the MA1 mic. I bought a network switch and connected it to my mac mini ethernet port. I connected my ethernet port on my Mac Mini to the switch, also i connected both ports from the speakers to the switch. The mic is connected to a Tascam Model 24, which is via USB connected to my Mac Mini. Also the switches in the back of the monitors are set to Network. So, I did all the steps explained in this video but the software keeps telling me that the speakers are not found. I'm getting a bit frustrated here because I own the complete kit since august 2023 and still didn't make use of the software because of this issue. I was in contact with your customer support, which did a great job of helping out but we couldnt find any solution. Any chance you know what's wrong? Thanks in advance
Why on earth not include the DSP on the 120 and higher series? Unfortunately music stores and reps don't know about this, so I now have a $250 MA1 mic that I can't use until I blow another $1650 on the KH 750 sub.
what if I dont own an interface? i want a Neumann 750 DSP sub with my analog speakers and that fine-tuned with MA-1 microphone. is that possible ? i could give the 750sub the XLR via my XLR output dac. would be that okey ?
An audio interface with at least one microphone input (with +48v) and stereo outputs is a requirement for MA 1 calibration. If running on Windows, the audio interface must provide an ASIO driver (Mac can be class compliant/CoreAudio.)
Hi, you have the possibility to deactivate the automatic calibration by setting it to 'local'. By doing this, the switches on the KH 750 can be modified. When switching back to network, the original alignment done with the MA 1 is active even without the need to connect to the computer again.
what happens if in the third scenario I take an OTHER (non-Neumann) analog speaker ? and not 120/310/420 ? the subwoofer can still be eq'd with MA-1 properly ?
While a non-Neumann monitor could be theoretically connected to a KH 750 and subsequently calibrated, we cannot guarantee the end results will be satisfactory. The MA 1 solution is designed and spec’d for our monitors specifically. It’s not that it may not work - it’s that we cannot guarantee the satisfactory results of such configurations.
Hi! Do I need to use a switcher or can I connect the KH750 (ordered and coming to me :D ) using the network sharing controls of my studio's Mac Mini M1?
Hi Felipe, a network switch is definitely recommended, especially if there is more than one DSP-enabled monitor in the configuration - so a KH 750 + KH80, or 120 II, or 150. If it’s just the one KH 750 sub plus analog speakers like the KH 120 A D, 310, or 420 - they may not need the switch if your computer has an ethernet port to directly the sub to. This can and has worked. You would still need WiFi for any firmware updates. But a network switch (or router) is generally advised, and absolutely necessary with more than one DSP enabled speaker.
Hi, Neumanns Automatic Monitor Alignment ist eine dedizierte Anwendung für KH 80 DSP Stereosets mit oder ohne dem KH 750 DSP Subwoofer bzw. zwei nicht-DSP-basierte Monitore der KH-Line wie die 120er, die an den Analogausgängen des KH 750 DSP betrieben werden. Mehr Informationen finden Sie auch hier: de-de.neumann.com/ma-1
Our MA 1 Alignment System and the KH 120 only work together in combination with the KH 750 DSP, since the MA 1 Software needs the external DSP functionality found in the KH 750 Sub.
Hi, can I use the MA 1 mic and alignment software to calibrate the Kh750 only? I ask this as I would like to purchase the 750 Subwoofer, but I am not going to be using with Neumann monitors to begin with but rather with NS10’s. Can I still take advantage of the DSP of the 750? Thanks
Hi Ria! The KH 750 has a very precise built-in x-over, which fits perfectly to our loudspeakers. It also has very flexible gain setting options and further acoustical options to be able to align it ideally to Neumann KH-line loudspeakers. In combination with our MA 1 - Automatic Monitor Alignment it is even possible to align our DSP loudspeakers automatically. In combination with the KH 750, our analog loudspeakers can then be aligned as well and optimized in their phase response. However, with this flexibility it is of course possible to connect other brand loudspeakers even if we think best results would be achieved in combination with our loudspeakers 😉.
@@GeorgNeumannGmbH thanks for you response, which I do appreciate. Although, I am still a little unclear as to whether I am able to use the Ma 1 mic and alignment software to calibrate the KH750 on its own? Can I still use it without using Neumann nearfields monitors? As I will be using Yamaha NS10’s as my reference monitors, but it would be great if the MA 1 mic could be used to set up the kH750 ONLY is this possible? Many thanks
Hello Ria, It is possible to align a system consisting of a KH 750 DSP in combination with connected other monitors. Important for the alignment is that monitors are connected to the subwoofer and the connected speakers reproduce an appropriate level and frequency response. In your case you should connect the outputs of your KH 750 to your amplifier which is connected to your NS10. Please level the amp by playing some music, switching the KH 750 to local mode and setting the level to 100 dB SPL and the gain to 0 dB. Then switch back to network mode and go through the MA 1 adjustment and define the KH 120 as monitors.
@@GeorgNeumannGmbH thanks so much for your really helpful response. I am very grateful for your explanation. I now feel much more confident at the prospect of adding the KH750 into my setup and am even more encouraged now that I do have the option to use the MA 1 mic and software!! Thank you for making things a lot clearer and easier for me to understand. Best wishes
@@GeorgNeumannGmbH hello again, I am soon to make my purchase of the KH 750 and MA1 alignment kit to using in conjunction with NS10’s. However, I am having some difficulty understanding how I might connect the output of the Kh750 to my amp (Yamaha AS301) as you previously advised due to amp only having sub out (rca Jack) option! My NS10’s are connected to amp using bare wire method. Obviously, this is not an option for the sub. Therefore, what are my connection options here? I am also using a Audient Nero monitor controller and Apollo twin as well as a mixer. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Best wishes
Uh … as if any bedroom studio recordist is going to go out and buy network switch gear and a very expensive proprietary mic just to make them sound good then no thanks. By contrast Adam montitors and genelics sound great right out of the box with options for room correction. Verdict … not worth it. 👎
