KRK Rokit RP5 G2 Powered Monitor Speaker

Product Description

The RP or 'Rokit Powered' G2 range is a new line of active monitors from the manufacturer KRK, renowned for designing professional studio monitors, rated very highly by producers and studio engineers worldwide. The RP5 G2 is KRK's best selling model due to an immensely light 11kg weight, solid design and overall power for it's size. With the Rokit 5's heavily profiled front baffle, slotted port and radiused corners helping to reduce cabinet edge diffraction and adding to it's sleek, stylish look, this outstanding studio reference monitor is unmistakably one of the best on today's market, but don't take our word for it, professional studio engineers and producers across the world choose the Rokit RP5 for a reason.

The signature yellow, woven glass, aramid composite woofer cone and light up KRK logo not only provides your studio with a superb sound but also adds a touch of class to the standard black finish you find with most studio equipment.The price tag usually associated with this kind of top quality, high end monitor is steep, however these monitors may cost a little less than you would expect from KRK, as they are still produced in China where labour costs remain relatively low. 

The woofer, tweeter, crossover and amplifier in the KRK Rokit 5 are tuned for maximum performance, improved top end frequency response and faster attach times. The 1" Neodymium soft tweeter is more natural and less harsh than metal domed tweeters, resulting in reduced ear fatigue and a further natural image to your mixes. An input gain control allows the user to sustain a comfortable listening level and helps to focus on the important thing, the mix.A newly designed rigid and durable wooden cabinet greatly improves structural integrity along with excellent imaging characteristics and a much wider sweet spot. This is all topped off with the many input options you have, including standard RCA, quarter inch jacks (balanced/unbalanced) and XLR inputs.

To put it simply, you will struggle to find a better monitor than the KRK RP5 G2 in this price range. A truly wonderful addition to any professional studio.

Main Features:

• New Radically Curved Front Baffle Design
  Our new Rokits look different, so they can sound better, and in a wider "sweet spot". Traditional rectangular speakers with square or slightly rounded edges suffer from diffraction as sounds leaving the edge of the cabinet are reflected back into the original sound field, and at different time intervals. This phase distortion creates a "narrow" or boxy" sound. The KRK Rokit 5 Generation 2 Series eliminates this issue with radically engineered curved surfaces, so diffraction is virtually eliminated. Simply put, you'll get better sound in a wider area.

• Recessed High Frequency Waveguide
  KRK has designed a superior tweeter waveguide that provides optimal high frequency pattern control and focuses the sound outward, away from the cabinet. More conventional designs direct sound along the plane of the cabinet where waveform interaction can cause phase problems and increased diffraction. KRK knows a properly engineered high frequency waveguide is a critical component to great sound, and one key to our award winning performance.
  Bi-Amplified Design with Active Crossover

  Power Up! A great sounding monitor doesn't stop with a great cabinet and custom drivers. Our true bi-amplified amplifier system provides discrete low-distortion power for each driver. While our active crossover systems provide smooth and accurate frequency response, and again, accurate diffraction control.

• Newly Designed Rigid Wood Cabinet
  While the radically designed curved front panel with flush and radius surfaces provide excellent imaging characteristics and a much wider sweet spot, the new KRK Rokit 5 g2's rigid wood cabinet construction improves overall structural integrity, extended low frequency response and increased damping characteristics.
  Multiple Input Options

  You've Got Connections, At KRK our focus is your mix. But it doesn't stop at creating accurate monitors. We live this stuff and appreciate the need for monitors that not only sound great but work easily into your particular set up. That's why you'll find plenty of input options with your Rokit sure to accommodate any studio environment. So if it's RCA, Quarter-Inch (balanced/unbalanced) or XLR inputs you require, Rokit has got you covered.

• High Frequency Level Control
  While your Rokit Generation 2 leaves the factory voiced to our demanding specs, KRK also knows that no two rooms "sound" the same. As such, each comes equipped with a High Frequency Level Control. This feature provides specific adjustment of high frequency output most commonly affected by room acoustics. It's just one extra level of control that KRK gives you to ensure the most accurate mix for your particular room's acoustics.

• Front-Firing Port
  Take a look at competitive monitors and you'll find ports on the back of the cabinet. These rear-firing ports tend create bass coupling with walls and corners amplifying low frequency information which will color your mix. Kust like it's big brothers (VXT and Expose) the KRK RP5 G2 Rokits include front-firing ports, which are just the right shape and taper to reduce port turbulence. You'll appreciate the clean and accurate bass performance, this approach delivers, even at high SPL's.

• Input Gain Control
  Why compromise gain structure to achieve a comfortable listening level? As musicians and recording people ourselves, we know that your monitor has to play nice with other components in your system, which is why we gave Rokit 5 G2 an ultra-compatible Input Volume Control that provides an adjustable gain range from 6dB to -30dB. Just another way Rokit 5G2 lets you focus on your mix, and not on compatibility concerns.
