KRK Rokit RP5 G4 5-stars Reviews

Best studio monitor you can get for this price

The sound is perfect for a small studio. You can use the KRK app to EQ the speakers easily. Don’t hesitate just buy them

Execellent for the price.

I purchased these for my living room studio. They are pin sharp (sometimes uncomfortably so) and more than powerful enough, easilly filling a large room with sound up to an uncomfortable volume.

The array of DSP features on these is a little overwhelming at times, but genuinely valuable. My favourite is digital volume control, which allows me to turn both monitors to a reasonable level without ever fearing that one will be set louder than the other. It also has EQ which is nice, but can't replace proper room correction.

Build quality is solid, and strongly recommend these to anyone looking for a mid price range near field.

Really balanced and with some kick

Although I do some video editing and very simple music production I am not really an audio engineer, nor musician. I do like good sound though and I own and have owned multiple speakers and headphones. For pleasure and more studio focused flat ones. As I was looking to set up my new office space I decided to go for studio monitors because not only they sound a thousand times better than any other PC speakers, they are generally not fatiguing too . So how did I end up with KRK- I tested Presonus line (3.5, 4.5BT) with Presonus sub8, also M-audio BX5. And well.. Presonus had a tot missing in high frequences but I was generally very happy with M-audio, however they had a couple of design issues although sounded pretty flat and natural. However when I compared them with KRK it felt like someone took the cotton out of my ears. KRKs have such a nice high frequency response. Not only it gives more info, it's not really sharp or unpleasant. The stereo imaging is fantastic so the staging in the end is very effective, the mids are precise and well balanced even in complex rock songs they perform without a fault. The lows are very good too. I ran some audio-tests and they go even lower than advertised but generally are excellent across the range. Combine them with the sub to give a bit more of excitement on lower volumes (Cheap Presonus sub8 pairs nicely too) and you will have an incredible audiophile level listening experience at your desk. There is plenty of bass when you turn them up a little so for audio mastering sub is not needed imho. I cannot think of anything in this price range able to match such combo. The KRKs are build very well, the eq setting works well and what is nice is that you can be 100% sure volume is the same on both speakers.

Obviously the experiences are very personal especially for non professional listening, but I personally cannot find anything to complain about Rockkit 5

Excellent monitors!

These are my first studio monitors. I was pleased with the excellent sound, excellent performance quality. Also an undoubted plus is the location of the phase inverter on the front panel. Special thanks to the store's employees - they promptly collected the order, packed it with high quality, everything came intact. I will also add that the monitors are sensitive to the room in which they are installed. Satisfied with the purchase

Great monitors for the price!

Now days it is so difficult to choose something. Choice and offer is huge and also the information about all is enormous. And choosing studio monitors are no exception. But I am more than happy about my choice here. The sound is crisp, detailed, but fair and nothing in it seems too much nor little. I could not imagine how pleasing it is to listen through the monitors to already known music. Using them in 3x5m small room without any acoustic treatment and I am very pleased with my pair of KRK RP5 G4. The sound, design, adjustable equalizer for the price. To me- perfect!

Perfect for my editing setup.

After lots of research I decided to give this pair a try and was not dissapointed. My main use is for video editing and they are perfect for my needs. Their physical size and sound volume are just right for my small studio space and the sound quality is great and clear across the spectrum (at least for my ears). Would definitely suggest them for similar setups.

Amazing for the price

Perfect sound — at least good enough for the things (post-punk) which I do.

Easy to model the sound and works good with the interface.

Great quality studio monitors

I do not at all regret this choice. They are of great value. Best speakers to get into music production, djing and stuff.

My best monitors

I made the right choice getting this one. The high, mid and low suits perfectly my room with no acoustic treatment yet and I'm sure it will be even better in an acoustic room.

Erfüllt meine Erwartungen

noch ein pro: der Sleep Modus.

Nach einer gewissen Zeit ohne Input gehen die Monitore in den Sleep Modus. Nach erneutem Pegel am Eingang schalten sie sich wieder ein.

Cooles Feature meiner Meinung nach.

excellent!

excellent sound quality, good price

The best

Wonderful sound very good for music production, product of great quality

Industry standard studio monitors

These are the first active studio monitors I own and I'm extremely happy with them!

I'm using the RP5 G4 with added Grid ( only these are a perfect fit for me due to a lack of space (they are small enough to fit on my desk), but the option to have a grid (grille covers) is huge if you have small children.

The sound is perfect for me - although I'm not doing the cutting-edge production (I'm in songwriting mode, so everything in my realm is pretty "rough").

As for the usability, I don't have any complaints. The on/off switch could probably be more accessible, but it seems that all the active monitors have the switch in the back.

It's a great buy, you won't regret it! They are good enough for Charlie Puth anyways.

Really good

Works really well, very reliable, best for the price!

Great monitors

I've been really pleased with these monitors. They sound clean and are very quiet when on (no humming or buzzing). Practically they're helpful as they go into standby when you're not playing audio from your interface. No issues whatsoever!

good choice for non-acoustically treated rooms

I evaluated krk, yamaha and adam and got krk.more sub frequencies, magnetic shielding and front port as pros.most suitable for use in rooms without acoustic treatment.I had the 7-inch model in mind, but after reading comments that it produces more hissing because it has three times the power output, I decided it was more suitable for my small room.

By the way, recording with a microphone and comparing the monitors is a completely wrong method that some youtube channels do.as a result, I am satisfied with them and do not intend to sell them. I intend to add the krk subwoofer in the future.

The best KRK Rockit generation for today

After my KRK Rokit 5 G2s broke down, which had been in operation for 12 years, I had to choose new studio monitors for my home studio. Unfortunately, while choosing right monitors I did not have the opportunity to listen to everything I wanted in my studio, local stores room acoustics did not allow you to fully experience the sound, but what exactly could be assessed regardless of the acoustic design is the constant noise level of the high-frequency speakers ... Despite the negative assessments of the noise level of the KRK G4 presented in the reviews, I noted the opposite for myself - no others were quieter than these. As a result, without thinking twice, I decided to make a forced upgrade from G2 to G4 (I had only one monitor out of order, if G2 were still on sale, maybe I would buy another one G2). The monitors are the same height as the second generation, but a little wider, about 1 centimeter, the "KRK yellow color" has become a little softer.

And now regarding the sound: for the sake of interest I decided to listen to the master tracks mixed on Rockit G2 and was amazed about how much more detailed the upper mids and high frequencies became and the width of the stage increased. Amazing! I am very happy about the choice I made.

There is an LCD display at the back, where you can make EQ adjustments - unfortunately, due to its limitations, this function, for me personally, is useless (maybe the built-in 16-band equalizer would be more suitable for this), I made all the room adjustments using other hardware-software (also did not even try to use the mobile application ). What's cool about this monitor is that now you can be 100% sure that the volume level of the monitors is set the same, there was no confidence in the accuracy of the position of the analog regulators in previous generations. Also, you can make the logo glow a little less, or turn it off, but (!) when they are switching to standby mode, dim settings do not matter, and the logo starts blinking from the absolute absence of glow to the brightest, doesn't matter wether dim mode is selected or not. I could not find any other cons. Everything is very, very good.

Cracking set of monitor speakers.

Love the sound reproduction from these rokit 5's.

very good, probably best for bedroom studio. no cons so far, would recommend.

Great sound monitors

KRK Rokit RP5 G4 are really great home studio monitors. They have extended frequency range. There is a nice option to adjust frequency response according to the room. Sound quality is superb. I am using them to record, mix and master different genres and styles of music in a home studio. They are excellent also just for listening to music as there is impressive separation and definition of the frequencies and instruments. I definitely recommend these studio monitors.
