Review: Hands down, the best value in studio monitors. - 18-month update: I am sitting in my studio just listening to music while working and I was, once again, struck by how great these monitors sound. I felt like I had to come back and do another update. I have been working on these monitors 5-6 days a week for a year and a half. I probably average 6 hours a day listening critically on them. I remain in awe at how great they are - not just compared to other speakers at this price, but compared to every professional studio monitor I have ever heard. These things are amazing! 6-month update: My impression of these speakers has only improved. I have used them very heavily for over 6 months now and they have not let me down. They are extremely accurate, yet very comfortable to listen to for long periods. I have done dozens of critical mixes on them and they translate perfectly. I would very happily buy these monitors again, and likely will. Original review: Wow. These things are so great I almost can't believe it. I have worked in professional audio and video production for over 20 years and I have owned a lot of very high quality audio gear. I needed to set up a new small video editing suite and needed a pair of accurate near field monitors with the ability to reproduce deep bass. I had heard good things about these monitors, so I figured I would give them a try. For the price, I couldn't go wrong. I AM SO HAPPY I DID! These monitors sound like much more expensive monitors. I had a pair of JBL LSR-28Ps that I loved and these have a very similar sound. They have a deep but tight low end, mild mids, and accurate but pleasing highs. Like the JBLs they are very pleasing to listen to for long periods of time, but are accurate enough to do critical mixing on. The only slight (and I mean very slight) negative to consider with these speakers is that they are ported and if your speaker placement isn't ideal they can sound a bit tubby. Because of my room layout, when I first set them up they were a bit higher than they should have been and the ports were right at ear level (about 40 inches away from my ears). Using my speaker pads to aim them down a bit and moving them a bit further back completely fixes this. The dip switches allowed me to get the speakers sounding flat in my room very quickly and easily (they print the instructions on the back of the speaker for easy setup). Even if you have the budget for more expensive monitors, unless you know exactly what you want,I highly recommend these speakers. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Review: These Speakers are a Tool - Watch the YouTubes, imagine they're as great as they seem. Not to worry, they are great monitors and more. I bought one shopping not near field, but more monitors used for live music rehearsal. These will be placed on stands ear level, 5-6' away. My E-drum kit buddy has a floor wedge that sounds like loud mud. Thought a powered monitor that sounds good full range may work better placed closer to his ear. PA powered speakers are around the same price basically having better grill protection. Problem is, they don't sound accurate, they just get loud. The Kali completely blew me away how clean and how punchy it is. I ordered a second for a stereo monitor system in the room we practice. Things are killer now controlled with a single vol. knob and source switching box. Glad I snagged the 8's. I had a Polk 10" front firing sub. The shocker was, when the Kali's are kicking, the sub blends in not able to detect it's in the party. I have a Sub in/out switch on the controller. Only when you raise the sub volume way high, you notice the low end becoming louder. Not kidding, these things reach down 60Hz and below no issue never chuffing from the front port. Dead silent at idle. I removed the sub as no need. First 'bookshelf' speaker I've ever heard hit those lows. These bad boys are all about smoking the competition. Studio monitors they might be they'd fill a fairly large living room where they'd destroy a sound bar for movie fun. These are powered speakers that can serve many rolls. Band practice, home stereo, making jaw dropping party noise, or... mixing. The amp has limiter protection to save the drivers from spikes and bad things. $300, 2-way bookshelves or PA monitors do not. She's a tool, bang away, you'll dig these.

## Features

- Music To Your Ears - Hear the tiniest details in your mix with these studio monitors. Utilizing a more powerful DSP, they deliver a flatter frequency response on the top end without sounding boosted or suppressed.
- Tight & Clean Bass - The studio monitor's port tube allows air to leave at a consistent velocity. This makes way for deep and robust bass that's not muddied up by chuffing or noise turbulence.
- Tweaked To Perfection - Behind the studio audio monitors you'll find a set of dip switches. These let you adjust a variety of settings, such as boundary compensation EQs, LF trim, HF trim, and RCA power.
- Packs A Solid Punch - The audio monitor is home to a 1" 40W soft dome tweeter and an 8" 60W woofer. It has a maximum SPL of 117dB, and can play non-stop at 85dB while maintaining 20dB dynamic headroom.
- Multiple Input Options - Easily hook up these studio monitor speakers to your laptop, phone, mixer, record player, or audio controllers using input ports for RCA, XLR, and TRS connectors.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb!, and a terrific value.
*by D***R on September 30, 2019*

These monitors are, in a word, SUPERB! They far exceeded my expectations for near-field monitors priced at $500/pair. The overall sound quality is marvelous, with a natural transparency and tonal balance that is just delicious. The low end response is tight and punchy without being over-hyped. To my ears, the LP-8’s sound consistently linear across the entire frequency spectrum with astonishingly good detail and minimal coloration. As shown in the photo, I have mine sitting on my desk (on Auralex’s MoPAD monitor pads), with the LP-8’s spaced about 43” apart, and with my listening/keyboarding spot located at the apex of the 43” equilateral triangle. I can work for hours and I have yet to experience any listening fatigue. (One reviewer mentioned unacceptable hiss coming from the LP-8’s, but I did not experience that). Also, Kali’s tech support was very responsive. One disappointment, and this has nothing to do with the monitors themselves, is the way Amazon packaged them for shipment. As you can see in the accompanying photos, Amazon simply took Kali’s original packaging for the monitor and just put it in a bigger Amazon box, with NO packing material! Pretty lame…luckily my pair was undamaged, but that’s no way to ship/handle a sensitive, expensive piece of audio gear. So, in closing, I highly recommend the LP-8’s. They sound magnificent and are a superb value.
