Kali Audio LP-UNF vs Neumann KH120 MKII

Last updated: October 27, 2026

Short answer: the Neumann KH120 MKII on measured flatness. Its CEA2034 spinorama is about as flat as the reviewer has measured, with excellent directivity aside from a small blip around 2kHz. The Kali Audio LP-UNF counters with its low 1.9kHz crossover, but its F3 of 54Hz and F10 of 39Hz mean bass rolls off below about 40Hz.

Kali Audio LP-UNF vs Neumann KH120 MKII

What the Kali Audio LP-UNF gets right: 1” dome tweeter on a waveguide crossed unusually low at 1.9kHz to a 4.5” ported midwoofer. Set against that: F3 of 54Hz and F10 of 39Hz mean bass rolls off quickly below about 40Hz, bottoming out around 50Hz in-room.
