About this deal

Without a doubt, the sound is the most important quality when it comes to good speakers. Yes, design and build are vitally important, but, without audio integrity, you’re just sitting there with a very pretty box in front of you. It has a front-firing port to help with the low-end punch. As well as this, the low resonance enclosure within has been made to prevent any colorization of the sound and prevent distortion. We’ve already discussed the high-quality Kevlar divers, which are robust and powerful and have no issues driving the bounce of these cones. While the connection options are more than a bit sparse, the same, fortunately, won’t be said about its tuning capabilities. KRK is a killer sounding monitor that will get you in the ballpark for a decent pair of reference monitors without spending a ton of money. No, it doesn’t come with a sub or anything, however, the bass is so impressive, that you won’t need one.

I’m not saying that I expected a laundry list of different ports and connection points to play with. However, the fact that it only has a single entryway, and nothing else, definitely takes a bit of the wind out of these largely impressive sails. For beginners that don’t know of the various intricacies of powered studio monitor placement, the KRK audio tools app feature can have them perfectly station their speakers on the first try. While 5-inch and even 7-inch monitors are excellent options for those starting their musical journey, it’s only when getting into the 8-inch monitors that things start opening up for most people. In summary, I find these speakers good for immersive gaming, watching movies and of course music sounds amazing. I am really happy with my choice and if you are looking for speakers to fit into a ~20square meter entertaiment room they will serve you really well. Fluid mechanics fully tuned to the entire system resulting in consistent air pressure behaviour at any volume creates an unprecedentedly wide, deep and dynamic listening “sweet-spot” with incredible imaging and 3D soundstage. New Custom Designed Efficient Class D Power Amp with Built-in Limiter

The RP8 have a built in equalizer for High and low frequencies add five steps for both which was easy to use and see the most suitable for my room size and listening preferences.

Simply put, if you’re looking for a powered studio monitor that can produce a serious punch on all frequencies, then there isn’t anything else you’d need.

KRK App, Room Correction Assistance and Onboard LCD Visual EQ: DSP-driven room tuning with 25 visual Graphic EQ settings help minimize and correct problems in your acoustic environment. Visualize the EQ settings with an LCD Graph while getting real-time helpful spectral analysis from the included KRK App.

Because there is so much you can do, the Rokit 8 G4 is one of the most flexible studio monitors available. Complete adaptability to your studio space. The KRK app takes it to the next level. It's easy to use and has a lot of great features. The real-time spectrum analysis provides further information into what improvements may be required. It also recommends speaker arrangement and level matching. This is ideal for a first-time setup. It's also great for newbies who aren't familiar with the subtleties of studio monitor positioning. Hopefully, more manufacturers will embrace this new generation of tweaking possibilities. A novel step that is ideal for both novice and experienced manufacturers. Optional Connections Not only has the G4, in and of itself, completely overshadowed their predecessors but the Rokit 8 has very much been the tip of the spear. Because the balance between the three frequencies is not perfect (with slight but clear favoritism aimed at the lower end), you can expect to hear a bit of color slipping in from time to time. No, it’s not an inordinate amount. KRK ROKIT monitors are among the most popular on the market, but it is fair to say that former ranges have been the subject of quite a lot of debate in audio communities. They look impressive, and they are marketed well, but some of the incarnations of their speakers have historically left a little to be desired when it comes to using them in the studio or as DJ monitors.Just as is found with the other KRK series models, the Rokit 8 G4 allows access to the KRK audio tools app. I am also glad I got these because the front firing bass port really makes a difference, especially if your room isn't specially treated (If it is then your retarded to be considering these and not the VXT's because you obviously have money to blow because you probably do this professionally). I love these monitors. I will never mix with anything smaller than an 8" speaker. Precision is the brand’s aim with recent improvements, such as those found with the upgraded V Series monitors. Those enhancements have also been integrated into the KRK ROKIT G4s, launched in 2019, which now come with impressive control features around their frequency response.
