Next Generation Subwoofer
The KH 810 II improves on its predecessor in acoustic performance and adds new features. Thanks to a novel long-throw 10" woofer with Extremely Linear Force Factor (ELFF™) technology and intelligent protection limiters, the KH 810 II ensures exceptionally low distortion even at maximum SPLs.
The KH 810 II extends low frequency reproduction down to 16 Hz and delivers about twice the output of the KH 750 DSP. This makes the KH 810 II the perfect complement to mid-sized speakers such as the KH 150 and KH 310.
The KH 810 II is DSP-controlled for superior sonic performance and seamless integration via MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment (sold separately). When combined with analog Neumann studio monitors such as the KH 120 A (discontinued), KH 310, or KH 420, it offers sufficient DSP-power for aligning an entire stereo, surround or even immersive system up to 7.1.4 via MA 1, optimizing not only the frequency response but also the phase. Of course, the KH 810 II is also a perfect complement to Neumann's DSP-equipped studio monitors. In surround and immersive systems, analog and DSP-equipped Neumann speakers can be combined and room-aligned using MA 1 with Multichannel Extension (sold separately). The KH 810 II is therefore much more than "just" a subwoofer: It is the perfect tool for upgrading existing systems and/or extending them for immersive audio.
Precision in Every Detail
As subwoofers are typically placed on the floor, a robust grille protects the driver from accidental damage. The rigid cabinet features a highly efficient bass reflex system, which is carefully engineered and tuned for the tightest bass reproduction with inaudible port noise.
Two analog XLR inputs and outputs are available to connect the subwoofer for stereo operation. For multichannel operation, the KH 810 II offers two Sub D25 connectors for up to 12 analog input channels and another two Sub D25 connectors for up to 11 analog output channels. All inputs and outputs are electronically balanced. Studio monitors can also be connected digitally via AES3 (BNC). For audio networking, this subwoofer is also available as an AES67 variant, the KH 810 II AES67.
The KH 810 II excels in music, film scoring, broadcast, and post-production studios for tracking, mixing, and mastering. Thanks to a novel power amp design, the KH 810 II combines superior audio performance with excellent energy efficiency. Its Auto Standby function can be deactivated in the MA 1 app.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
