Kali LP-8 2nd Wave (LP8 V2) Studio Monitoring Desktop Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)

Thinking of Upgrading Your Studio's Audio Setup?

Your studio monitors are crucial for accurately representing the audio produced in your recording studio. Such speakers should allow sound engineers to hear every detail of the mix, without any distortion or coloration.

Not all studio monitors, however, are made equal. Some might be too small for your setup, while others produce underwhelming audio. Part of the acclaimed Lone Pine Series of studio monitors, our 8" speaker is the perfect choice for your larger recording studio.

The LP-8V2 8" Powered Studio Monitor by KALI AUDIO gives you crystal-clear sound quality like no other.\

Hits The Sweet Spot

Fully transparent sound is a key factor when it comes to perfecting your audio mix. Utilizing the 2nd Wave technology platform, our 8" studio monitor enjoys more advantages over older versions. The speaker is equipped with an improved DSP, giving it a flatter frequency response compared to previous models. With its 3D imaging waveguide, the studio monitor allows listeners to enjoy fuller sound and capture subtle details with ease.

Clean & Tight Bass

The port tubes on some speakers cause air to escape at different speeds from various opening points. This is the culprit behind the so-called "chuffing" or loud air sounds produced by speakers when playing bass-heavy tunes. We designed the speaker's port tubes to let air leave at a constant speed. By doing so, the sound monitor can dish out rumbling bass without the unnecessary noise.

Tweaked To Perfection

Whether you place the speaker on a stand, a desk, or a console bridge, you can count on it to deliver impressive sound quality at all times. Behind the sound monitor is a row of dip switches, each one controlling a specific aspect of the speaker's output. Switches 1 to 3 are for adjusting the boundary compensation EQs. 4 to 5 control the LF trim. 6 and 7 are for the HF trim. Lastly, switch 8 controls power to the RCA port.

Packs a Solid Punch

Whatever music genre or audio format you're working on, our studio monitor won't disappoint. Delivering up to 100W of total power, the speaker can also produce a maximum SPL of 117dB. Its 8" optimized paper LF driver yields up to 60W of power, while its 1" textile dome HF driver can deliver up to 40W of power. A limiter circuit keeps the speaker protected against unsafe voltage levels.

Multiple Input Options

Connecting a studio monitor to your mixers and audio equipment has never been this easy. This speaker features balanced XLR and TRS ports, as well as an unbalanced RCA input.

You may adjust the RCA input to -10dBu sensitivity if you’re using the speaker with consumer devices like laptops or smartphones. We recommend placing the studio monitor 0.5 to 3.5 meters away from your position for an optimal listening experience.
