HEDD Audio Announces New Generation of Studio Monitors and Subwoofers

Published 7th January, 2021

HEDD Audio have announced the MK II series of professional active loudspeakers. The new range includes TYPE 05 MK2, TYPE 07 MK2, TYPE 20 MK2, and TYPE 30 MK2 models and powerful BASS 08 and BASS 12 subwoofers.

As before they all are handcrafted in Berlin Germany and will be available from January 2021.

HEDD's new models are equipped with a powerful DSP board that enables 3 powerful features:

1. On-board Lineariser: Implemented in the MK2 and subwoofer models is the well-known Lineariser, a phase linearisation tool that leads to perfect impulse response and an audibly improved spatial reproduction.
2. CoP Technology (Closed or Ported): The MK2 series makes it possible to use the speakers with or without bass-ports. Users can now choose between the energy and bass-capacities of a modern bass-port design and the painstaking precision and control of a closed cabinet approach.
3. Phase Linear Sub-Satellite System: HEDD is introducing a completely phase linear Sat-Sub system. These are the first Satellite Sub systems that are completely “...right in time” by applying switchable group delay at the satellite output. The potential listener distances between subwoofers and satellites can be compensated in a ± 2 m range.

The MK2 Monitors have a new and improved lacquer for higher durability and better looks. The monitors will also be available in white.

In addition to the new studio monitor models, HEDD is debuting two unique subwoofers called BASS 08 (8“woofer) and BASS 12 (12“woofer). These subwoofers can be combined with HEDD’s previous models as well as any other active speaker system. However, their full potential lies in the seamless integration with our new HEDD MK2 models.

“The new HEDD product line demonstrates what can be achieved today both in audio quality and control versatility. We believe that we are about to set a new benchmark within MI / Pro Audio whilst increasing the company’s potential to be successful in both the Broadcast- and Consumer Audio realm.” - Klaus Heinz, CTO HEDD Audio.
