TYPE 20 MK2
TYPE 20 MK2
Iconic Compact 3-Way Monitor with on-board Lineariser® and CoP
"From the music creators standpoint, the Type 20 MK2 is a reliable and comfortable benchmark whether that's engineering, producing, or tracking."
The TYPE 20 is a perfect all-rounder monitor designed as the ideal partner for studio professionals who need to work on a variety of audio tasks.
Thanks to the HEDD Air Motion Transformer driver, Closed or Ported mode, and DSP-enabled functionalities it delivers honest midrange clarity and plentiful low end performance.
The TYPE 20 is equally well-suited to bass-hungry beats, jazz recordings, soundtrack work, or Atmos mixing.
Case studies
HEDD Air Motion Transformer
Our AMT was designed to deliver impeccable transient response and ultra-high frequency extension. This unique driver is handmade in Berlin to ensure the highest quality possible.
Our design of the Air Motion Transformer is known for transparent and linear high frequencies that do not distort the natural sound reproduction in any way.
HEDD Lineariser®
Our HEDD Lineariser® is fully integrated into the HEDD Type 20 MK2 monitors. With the phase linearity enabled we can solve time-related delays with a non-perceivable short reaction of 10ms. Effectively, this improves transients and imaging precision. For the first time, the phase correction can be synched with our HEDD BASS subwoofer range to compensate for group delay in a sat-sub system. Of course, the HEDD Lineariser® is optional and can be disengaged.
CoP: Closed or Ported
Like most monitors, the Type 20 MK2 speakers are based on a Ported base system that allows for a voluminous bass response with impressive extension. However, the same speakers can transform into a functionally new design with the flip of a switch and the use of the included plugs. The newly introduced Closed operation mode benefits from the extensive research that went into our reference monitoring system, the HEDD Tower Mains. With sealed bass ports, the Type 20 MK2 exceed expectations of bass precision and offers a new level of texture details and low-end harmonics.

A beautiful set of speakers to mix, work long hours on with little fatigue and maintain excellent translation to other listening environments. Compact in size, yet packing some real punch across the spectrum, they feel like a speaker much bigger than they actually are… a pleasure to listen to.
