General

Let's be honest, not so very long ago, Behringer wasn't a brand to be particularly proud of showing to your producer friends. That all changed quickly though, and the new NEKKST K8 studio monitor is proof that Behringer makes products to lust after. This nearfield monitor has been developed by the famous monitor designer and KRK CEO, Keith R. Klawitter. The most modern technology went into its making to provide it with excellent connectivity, DSP and audio technology.

Behringer NEKKST K8: powerful nearfield

You can count on the K8 to provide high-resolution audio for all your near-field applications. A 1-inch silk dome tweeter is supported by a sizeable 8-inch fibreglass woofer to produce bass and trebles with crystal clarity, and the sound is also assisted by the bass reflex port on the front. The bass reflex port also means you can place the K8 near a wall without being bothered by too many reflections. The tonal character of the speaker has been fully adjusted for listening to audio at a short distance, and thanks to the tireless dedication of KRK's CEO you can count on a pleasurable listening experience.

Connectivity and Bi-amping

The Nekkst series is equipped with tons of connection options. You have the choice of a balanced XLR connector or an unbalanced jack and RCA input. For optimal sound in every room, an advanced acoustic setting is also possible. No matter what settings you choose though, the composite enclosure ensures minimal low-frequency distortion. This K8 has two separate amplifiers on board - one for the high frequencies and one for the low, which results in a strict frequency separation to guarantee the most efficient control of both the woofer and the tweeter. Together, both amplifiers deliver an impressive 150 watts of power. All of these features combine to give you deep, tight bass tones with defined mids and sparkling highs.

Wrote the following about Behringer NEKKST K8 studio monitor (per unit)
Ik heb deze monitors vorige week gekocht en na in gebruik name van een van hen gelukkig gestopt en even getest. Deze monitors geven naar mijn gevoel een ontzettend slechte geluidskwaliteit. Ze geven echt de indruk van onder water te staan, met heel weinig definitie en heel veel slechte galm op het geluid. Ik heb ze dan ook direct terug ingepakt en binnengegeven bij muziek & visie in Antwerpen aangezien ik daar toch in de buurt moest zijn. Heel vriendelijke ontvangst daar en direct EVE Audio SC205 gekocht, absoluut niet te vergelijken!

Ik heb deze monitors nu enige tijd in gebruik en ik moet zeggen dat ik zeer aangenaam verrast ben. Mooi gedefiniëert geluid. Dank Keith R K voor het ontwerp en Ulli B voor het, zoals gewoonlijk, betaalbare product. Hulde !
Nu de K10S nog even snel op de markt zetten en ben ik, zeer waarschijnlijk, nog meer tevreden...
