Pro-grade audio made in Berlin

The HEDD Type 07 MK2 is the black version of the German manufacturer's second-smallest studio monitor. Despite its compact dimensions, this two-way loudspeaker comes equipped with the same useful DSP features found in its larger siblings. Both the 7" low-mid driver and the 2" high‑frequency driver, which operates using folded‑diaphragm technology, are each powered by a 100W amplifier. With a frequency range extending from 38Hz to 40kHz, this monitor reveals more detail than many competitors in a comparable price bracket, plus – as with all the other monitors in the series – the bass reflex ports on this model can be sealed to achieve a tighter bass response. In addition, HEDD's Lineariser function allows producers using multiple units to optimise the phase linearity of their setup, even when their monitors are combined with a subwoofer.

A DSP with a deep feature set

The AD/DA converters that manage the DSP processing in each HEDD Type 07 MK2 operate at 96kHz and 32-bit resolution. This compact studio monitor also offers very versatile connectivity; it accepts analogue and two-channel digital signals in AES format via XLR connectors, and can pass the digital signal through to another speaker. An individual speaker can output the left or right channel of an incoming digital signal: When paired with a second unit to form a stereo setup, the system can achieve a maximum sound pressure level of 116dB SPL. The room-adjustment options here are also identical to those of the larger models. From adjusting the input level by ±12dB, to balancing lows and highs using shelving filters, even a desk filter: The HEDD monitors come with every feature even an experienced pro would expect to find.

Use it anywhere

The HEDD Type 07 MK2 measures 37cm in height and 22cm in width – that's slightly smaller than a sheet of A3 paper. And at just under 10kg, this high‑end monitor is also noticeably lighter than many other studio loudspeakers with comparable audio quality. Home studio owners who want the best in terms of sound, features, and aesthetics can get their hands on a premium production tool with a truly exquisite sound here. Similarly, project studio operators looking to take their nearfield monitoring to the next level would also be well advised to take a closer look. If used in a professional recording studio, these speakers make a solid choice for outfitting an edit suite. Wherever it's put to use, owners of the HEDD Type 07 will all benefit from the MK2 version's new DSP features and broader range of room‑adjustment options.

About HEDD

The family-owned company HEDD Audio was founded in 2015 in Berlin, where it still manufactures its high-quality studio monitors, subwoofers, and hi-fi speakers, as well as headphones – or HEDDphones. The name HEDD stands for Heinz ElectroDynamic Design, after its founder Klaus Heinz (who also founded ADAM Audio); his son, who himself has a PhD in musicology, is now CEO. The company’s R&D work is based on their decades of experience, and its mission is to deliver outstandingly detailed sound and optimum signal quality. A whole host of renowned DJs and mastering engineers, including DJ Jazzy Jeff and Sascha "Busy" Bühren, swear by HEDD products for their day-to-day work.

Analyse the sound, monitor the mix

The HEDD Type 07 MK2 is ideal as part of a stereo pair – simply combine it with a second identical speaker. Of course, by adding a HEDD subwoofer, a pair of Type 07s can happily function as part of a 2.1 system, where users can sychronise the phase linearity optimisation with the subwoofer. Properly configured, this loudspeaker is capable of delivering truly first‑class monitor sound in acoustically optimised rooms; equally, even in rooms with minimal acoustic treatment, the Hedd Type 07's adjustment options will always help producers make the most out of what they've got. Either way, performance-wise it can handle almost every nearfield monitoring scenario with ease, from the analytical evaluation of the signal itself to the in-depth assessment of the final mix.

Good speakers for the price, but I got stuck with a faulty pair

K.Zed 10.04.2022

I bought these speakers back in July of 2021. All was well until about 6 months in when one of them - the DSP module failed. I had to send it back to Thomann for repair and the whole process of sending it back and receiving it back took about a month. Then not even two weeks later my other speaker failed with exactly the same problem. Currently as I write this, it is on the way back to me and should be delivered within the week.

It is possible I received a faulty batch as the serial numbers of both speakers are less than 60 units apart, so if made in batches of 100 my batch was totally made with defected DSP. However because of this, I can't exactly recommend HEDD to anyone.

I will revisit this review in a year's time as I need to see if the repairs actually did anything.

Update: about half a year after receiving both monitors back from repair, one of them stopped working again - same exact issue as before and it will be a matter of time before the other one stops working. Fool me once, okay, but fool me twice... And this is all within a span of just over 1 year of usage, cheaper made in china monitors outlast this with no issues.

As of this update, I do not recommend these speakers to anyone.

Amazing!

Initially, I wait for a month for the product available. Once it`s available, the delivery is fast. Personally, its perfect for me , although the brand is not famous. But the product is worth the price. I just love it.

Coming from an audiophile background, I've heard few set-ups that achieved this level of effortless precision, dynamics, imaging across the entire frequency range. Used as near-field monitors as intended, fed with digital input to circumvent the interface DAC - these speakers truly shine. In a properly treated room they're absolutely having no issues with controlled bass down to 30 Hz, phase linearisation all the way. Used for music production, mixes simply translate perfectly. Versatile in their configuration. In daily use since they were released, fully recommend - worth every cent and then some.

Besser als KH-120

_nicolas 26.03.2022

Habe mehrere Monate gebraucht um mich für die richtigen Boxen zu entscheiden und die HEDD direkt mit den Neumann KH 120 A verglichen, weche ja scheinbar als Studiostandard gelten. Die auch bestimmt für Vocals und akustische Instrumente super sind, aber für Sounddesign, Elektro, Ambient in meinen Augen die falsche Wahl sind. Dafür weicht das Klangbild viel zu stark von dem normaler Lautsprecher ab. Die HEDD hingegen klingen erst einmal einfach nur schön, für Laien kaum unterscheidbar zu Hi-Fi-Lautsprecher, aber die Auflösung ist eine andere. Letztlich habe ich den Unterschied beim Mastering gemerkt. Ich kann damit super schnell abmischen, fühle mich dabei 100 % sicher und weiß, wenn es hier gut klingt, klingt es überall gut. Das ist genau das was ich wollte und das war mit den KH 120 absolut undenkbar. Der Sound wich so stark von dem normaler Boxen ab, dass ich mir nicht vorstellen konnte mich jemals daran zu gewöhnen.
