Project Independence
Kali’s IN-Series monitors are some of the most innovative studio monitors ever made. Combining the natural advantages of a 3-way design with hyper-realistic imaging of a co-axial mid-range and tweeter, they offer more transparency, lower distortion, and a soundstage that must be heard to be believed.
Performance
Unrivaled Punch and Detail.
The IN-Series monitors are unlike anything you’ve ever heard. The three-way design lets both the woofer and the tweeter do less work, resulting in better headroom and lower distortion across the frequency spectrum.
At the same time, the coaxial architecture of the midrange and tweeter result in hyper-realistic imaging. This means that you’ll be able to hear subtle details in your mix with pinpoint precision.
The design of the system comes together to allow the IN-Series monitors to act as acoustic point sources. They enjoy all the benefits of both traditional 3-way systems and traditional coaxial speakers, with none of the drawbacks traditionally associated with either.
All of this make the IN-5 and IN-8 extremely accurate and easy to mix on. You’ll be able to work faster and with more confidence, and your mixes are going to translate to other systems with less work.

Soft Dome Tweeter
Smooth, effortless highs.Profile-optimized Midrange Driver
Clear mids and excellent directivity all the way to the top of the frequency response.Powerful Woofer
Clean, punchy bass that doesn’t disrupt the mids and highs.
Because of the IN-Series' coincident architecture, you may notice a dip between 8-10 kHz when measuring with a single stationary microphone. The dip is an on-axis diffraction artifact of the midrange baffle interface. It is evident in on-axis measurements, but not in total sound power. Perception of timbre should be neutral in most rooms. It is not recommended to apply room-correction EQs to the INs based on single point static measurements.
Immersive
Kali’s IN-Series are an ideal solution for immersive mixing applications like Dolby Atmos. The coaxial architecture of the midrange and tweeter makes them an acoustic point source, allowing for hyper-realistic imaging in the 3-D soundfield. Importantly, Kali’s users enjoy excellent translation across a variety of systems, so when you’re mixing a high profile project, you know your client will be happy and the mix will sound its best.
Ceiling/Wall Mounting
Kali Audio’s speakers can be easily mounted for overhead use, or even to a wall, using Triad-Orbit and Triad-Orbit Precision products. Per-loudspeaker mounting plates are available for the LP-6 V2, IN-5, and IN-8 V2. Also available are mounts that interface with these mounting plates and Triad-Orbit’s wall mounting ecosystem of products. Before mounting a Kali loudspeaker, check to make sure that it says “Wall/Ceiling Mountable” on the back of the speaker. Contact Kali customer service if you have any questions. Your dealer can help you find the right TriadOrbit mounts for your application, and Kali is also here to help!
