I recently got the IN-8 and I love them!!! 😍🙌🏼 I upgraded from the LP-6 and wow the difference was big. Went from 2-D to 3-D sound when I first heard them. My mixes are translating even better now. Love them to death!
I use the kali LP 6 after comparing to the rocket 6 hs5 and ns 10s I have I honestly enjoy the lp 6 over all of them amazing monitors. If your able to, please review the lp 6 sometime in the future.
The Hiss in the monitor is due to the class D amplifiers. New Krk g4 have class D amps as well and have the same Hiss, even with nothing plugged into it. How do these compare to the Yamaha HS8's?
@@gusdee4844 yup thats right I had my hs8s and my a7x monitors at the same time. Sold the hs8s and got an adam t10s subwoofer and will be getting another very soon
The trick with the hiss is to put them back further ( i have some lp-6's), even a foot further back and the the hiss wont be an issue. plus in my experiece by setting the speakers back a bit allow the bass to develope better. Also ways best to put speakers in that perfect triangle position anyways.
Hi, thanks for the review. One question, if I may. I have a 12 ft by 12 ft room and can manage a distance of about 3-4 feet from my ears to the speakers. Would that size of room and distance be enough for speakers such as these or the Adams you mentioned. Thanks again!
Hey, really nice review! The newer IN-5 are just now shipping and the dreaded hiss problem is gone. A 12dB reduction in hiss self-noise as compared to IN-8 and previous LP series - that's a huge drop! Anyway, was about to pull the trigger on 2-way Neumann KH 120 A or Adam A7X pair but might give the Kali IN-5 a go for half the price. Any thoughts/opinions?
I got a bunch of Monitors and last year i picked up the LP8 and then the IN8 dropped the next week. I was bummed...By the way your room is looking killer....All the best.. Stay Safe,,,
Damn I’m late I haven’t been on in a while I’ve been eyeing the Kali audio monitors the IN and LP trying to decide, I’m curious about the hiss you were talking about did it ever go away? Anyway Bro thanks for the review either way you swayed me towards the INs
I have a smaller-studio about 500-600 Sf. Would it be bad or a waste if I hot these 8 inch Monitors or should I go with a 5 inch like the Adam AX5. (I already have a sub)
Kali Audio In-8 V2 monitors are supposed to correct the hiss you mentioned. They are supposed to be quieter according to a review I heard. Nice video and thanks for doing it.... Phil NYC Area
There fite but I send mines back the Limiter in those kept the in 8 from cutting back on once broken in and hit the max on limiter it kept shutting off. Once they update fix those bugs in the newer model I'll gladly get it then.
already sounding so much better then me adding too much, and nothing I know about in general trying to do it by ear and taking from different TH-cam videos. you saved me a bunch of time. worth every penny and I've only just messed around with it so far.
Right now I'm sitting on two Sterling 4 in and a 6-in subwoofer and then now you want to say wait don't buy speakers yet watch this you been hanging out with Adam way too long bro Adam will cost you money wait a minute I'm going to watch this and if you can sell it to me enough I'll see about getting some cuz I know I'm not getting the sound I should get Sterling is really starting to piss me off.
@@waynewav which one is better the LP series or these I’m not sure which model to get but I really want an 8 inch monitor from my bedroom partially blind producer
I just found out about the hiss and what causes it, Kali Audio said the monitors will produce the hiss if the monitors are less than 5 feet apart, they suggest making sure they are between 5 and 9 feet apart.
@@allenscott8485 mine are further apart than that ..even if you just turn one on they have a hiss...I have ini8 and the regular Kali 8 both have the hiss
@@djtuff514 😯 damn that’s wild I had the same problem @ first but once I readjusted them to the recommendations and did the calibration the diagrams have on the back for your setup in the room I was G2G. It also might be my hearing isn’t a precise as yours tho too.
I have two friends with the IN-8's and they have the hiss too. I think it's just the gain in the amplifiers. This is a reason studios use Bryston amps to power bigger monitors but you can still run into noise even then.
I still love the Yamaha HS7/s BUT these blow Adams/ Genelec 8020’s/ Yamaha’s out of the water - lightweight, clean, but best of all translate almost exactly - what you hear is what it sounds like on systems.. yes hiss - manual says it is due to the class of amp’s inside - 👍🏽👍🏽but they sacrificed expensive amps so can translate great pricing for the consumer 💥💥
Wavy I entered your giveaway bro, I need those two studio monitors I already have a brand new laptop, trying to cut cost bro help me out bro, I really need it. I'm new to music but have been taking notes from you on what i need to set up a home studio, money tight right now. I just learned that I have the talent to write music bro, in the space of three weeks I wrote 72 songs so I'm just trying to pursue this and get started, please help me out. watching your videos, I got the mini midi core pack for free and I'm gonna try to use those to create beats and put my songs on the beats I create. Just trying to make my way bro, I want to learn how to mix and master and also use auto tune from you bro, bless me bro with those two studio monitor help me on my journey bro. Best, Golden Child.

Has the hiss gone away?
I use the kali LP 6 after comparing to the rocket 6 hs5 and ns 10s I have I honestly enjoy the lp 6 over all of them amazing monitors. If your able to, please review the lp 6 sometime in the future.
I literally just talked to my homie who works at SweetWater about a month ago and he was pushin the Kali’s on me! He was hypin em up!!
same here!
Reminder already set.. Ready with my notepad
💯💯
I been looking at these for a minute now can’t wait for This video to drop!
The Hiss in the monitor is due to the class D amplifiers. New Krk g4 have class D amps as well and have the same Hiss, even with nothing plugged into it. How do these compare to the Yamaha HS8's?
HS8's would destroy these
@@techguru4268 lmao what?! I had hs7s and will never go back if somebody paid me. Idk how they compare to these but im an Adam AX guy now
@@gusdee4844 yup thats right I had my hs8s and my a7x monitors at the same time. Sold the hs8s and got an adam t10s subwoofer and will be getting another very soon
@@techguru4268 I seriously doubt that.. I bought the HS8s last week and sent them back in 5 days. Bottom end was rubbish and the rest nothing special.
I got these like 8 months ago and they didn’t have any reviews lol glad you got these joints on the desk 💯🤝

I have the LP-6 with a subwoofer. They are fantastic. With the LP-8 you may not need sub if the room acoustic is decent.
Is giveaway available for people in US only
I really wish I could win but location I s going to be the problem
I got a pair of the lp 6’s I love the sound I get from them. I also experience the hiss from these monitors as well. Idk what the deal is.
Are these better than the Yamaha hs5 or hs8🤔
Just picked up the Kali Audio IN 5's.......amazing speakers.
i got a pair of lp 8 thats arriving tomorrow i choice these over the adams t7v1 hope they sound good
You will love them
Sup my G I got a super windows computer and I want to get a USB appallo, what do you think about that and I would also like to get the 3 way Kali 8
Partially blind producer here I’m not was I’m not sure whether to get the LP series or this series which one is better and has the best clarity

Damn I’m late I haven’t been on in a while I’ve been eyeing the Kali audio monitors the IN and LP trying to decide, I’m curious about the hiss you were talking about did it ever go away? Anyway Bro thanks for the review either way you swayed me towards the INs

Will you ever release a Common/J.Cole/Nipsey/Little Brother type vocal chain?
Is the giveaway only in USA or can Europeans participate?

Whoa, Great Content Bud!
Been looking at these for a while. Haven't pulled the trigger yet.
I got the LP 8s and they are awesome
I can't believe I missed this post
Hmm... I’m sure you’re going through a power conditioner so are you still experiencing that hiss sound after power being ran through them for awhile?
Yes. I am. And it’s still there. 🤷🏽♂️
@@waynewav which one is better the LP series or these I’m not sure which model to get but I really want an 8 inch monitor from my bedroom partially blind producer
They fixed the issue with the new IN 8 V2's
The hiss does not go away, but there are great monitors,

How can they be the best budget monitors and you said you have never listen to to the lp6 and 8????
Best price studio monitor and Adam compitison. kali monitor sound best
I have two friends with the IN-8's and they have the hiss too. I think it's just the gain in the amplifiers. This is a reason studios use Bryston amps to power bigger monitors but you can still run into noise even then.
Mean while I got some cheap Logitech speakers 😅😅
