⚙ Kali Audio Technologies

🔬 Boundary EQ

Every monitor has a Boundary EQ switch on the back with simple graphics for optimal sound based on placement: free field, near wall, corner, on desk. Tuned at The Village Studios, Los Angeles.

🌊 Low-Noise Front Port

Kali designed the port shape using CFD simulations so air exits at uniform velocity — no chuffing or port noise. Allows monitors to be placed against walls.

🎯 3D Imaging Waveguide

Custom waveguide around the tweeter expands the sweet spot and creates a hyper-realistic stereo image.

🔌 Coaxial Design (IN / SM)

Tweeter and midrange are coaxially aligned — point-source for flawless imaging. Woofer is separate, eliminating intermodulation distortion.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is Boundary EQ and how do I use it?

Boundary EQ is a switch on the back panel with 4 positions for LF correction based on placement: free field, near wall, corner, on desk with stands. Just select the position matching your setup. Settings were tuned at The Village Studios, LA.

Why is 3-way (IN/SM) better than 2-way (LP)?

In 3-way monitors, a separate midrange offloads the woofer and tweeter, reducing distortion. Coaxial midrange/tweeter placement creates a point source — perfect imaging and phase coherence.

Can I place LP-6 against a wall?

Yes! Thanks to the low-noise front port (designed with CFD simulations) and Boundary EQ, LP monitors can be placed near walls without degrading sound quality.

How is SM-series different from IN-series?

SM-series is Kali’s flagship: premium materials, up to 300 W power, onboard DSP with user-loadable room calibration profiles, AES/EBU and Ethernet connectivity. For mastering and demanding installations.

HP-1 headphones — why 3 modes?

Studio — neutral for mixing. Consumer — simulates popular headphones for translation checks. Bass Heavy — for bass evaluation. One-button switching lets you check your mix on different “systems.”

Is there warranty on Kali Audio in Ukraine?

Yes, all Kali Audio monitors and products at SoundsGood come with official warranty.
