Hedd Type 07 MK2

TYPE 07 MK2: HEDD DNA in nearfield, optimized for today's studios

The HEDD TYPE 07 MK2 positions itself as an ambitious 2-way nearfield monitoring solution, designed for those who prioritize fidelity and reliable reading of transients. In the lineup, this "7-inch" format aims for balance: enough low-end extension to confidently work on kick and bass, while maintaining a stable image and precise articulation in the midrange.

This MK2 evolution clearly emphasizes DSP control and more advanced tuning options to adapt to very diverse contexts: demanding home studios, compact control rooms, or immersive setups where speaker coherence and bass control become essential.

Who these HEDD monitors are for and their intended uses

The TYPE 07 MK2 targets producers, composers, sound designers, and audio engineers seeking an honest listening experience for mixing and mastering, without flattering curves that mask issues. Their precision helps make quick decisions on EQ, compression, reverb, and stereo placement, even at moderate volumes.

They also work very well as a second reference system in an already equipped studio or as the foundation of a compact installation focused on reliability. Thanks to separately available mounting accessories, they can integrate into immersive setups, whether at ear level or ceiling-mounted, while maintaining a control- and coherence-oriented approach.

DSP, tuning modes, and voicing: listening tailored to your workflow

HEDD Lineariser: temporal coherence and clearer stereo image

The HEDD Lineariser relies on a linear phase (zero-phase) filter to improve the system's temporal coherence. Practically, this results in a more "locked" stereo image, better perception of layers, and finer reading of attacks. This is particularly useful for judging reverb depth, panning precision, or transient clarity on a snare drum.

Closed or Ported: adapt bass behavior to your room

Depending on acoustics, placement, and your working style, you can choose between two behaviors. The Closed mode favors very tight and controlled bass, ideal when the room tends to boost lows or when you seek analytical listening. The Ported mode provides a fuller bass sensation, useful for checking the foundation and energy of the low spectrum.

To push analysis even further, the bass-extension mode allows increasing the low spectrum by up to 20 percent. A useful option to control sub-bass stability, validate kick/bass balance, or quickly compare your mix in different listening contexts without changing systems.

Built-in filters: desktop filter and shelving for quick adjustment

The desktop filter helps reduce nearfield reflections caused by a desk or console, often responsible for a muddy low-midrange. The Hi shelving and Low shelving filters serve to adjust tonal balance according to the room, positioning, and your preferences, with aluminum knobs designed for simple and durable daily adjustment.

Finally, compatibility with a satellite-subwoofer setup in linear phase (with BASS 08 subwoofers) allows for an expandable system: you start in 2.0, then extend your monitoring as your room and needs justify it.
