Key features

  • Air Motion Transformer

    Handmade in Berlin using high quality components, the HEDD Air Motion Transformer delivers a precise and wonderfully open sound. Thanks to ultra high frequency extension and remarkable transient response, natural sound reproduction is not distorted in any way.
  • Lineariser®

    The heart of the MK2 range’s DSP, the HEDD Lineariser is a high-resolution, zero-phase filter designed to automatically eliminate time delays in order to improve resolution, separation, and imaging accuracy. Ideal for engineering and producing setups.
  • CoP: Closed or Ported

    With CoP all MK2 monitors can act as either a closed or ported cabinet with the use of a POM plug. These two monitoring systems give you different advantages depending on needs: ported (open) lets you feel the music with more bass response while closed increases bass precision, texture resolution, and transient response.
