KRK Rokit RP8 G4 5-stars Reviews

Great sound, great look. Highly recommended.

Great sound, great look. Highly recommended.

Bang for your buck!

Clear across the mids, crisp in the upper end, can fade in the lower end at high volumes but low to mid volumes give good response. For the price these are an absolute must have. Solid build, simple look great sound.

The only con I have is that the eq controls are difficult to access (at the back of the unit) an accompanying app controller would be good.

Why havent you bought them yet? i love them

Can i say enough how much i love these speakers after owning them for 2 years? probably no.

I use them in 5mx3.5m acoustically treated home studio

Large 8" speaker goes really low and you can not only hear but feel the bass. They do not lose the balance when playing audio loudly, home parties will be taken to next level (joke, but if you wanted to, neighbours will enjoy music as well)

I did take away 1 star for sound, you can decide yourself, and that is something i was surprised at first but got used to very quickly - there is audible white noise when the speakers are powered ON (when speakers are in sleep mode, there is no noise)

I have listened on lowest volume, cant hear the white noise presence then but just so you know, it is there.

But when i reviewed these 2 years ago, i didn't find much comments about white noise.

But yes - quality, sound, balance is superb, and Digital DSP in combination with KRK app, makes it easy to set-up in any room with suggested settings.

Another decider for me was - front port for woofer, i can place it closer to rear wall than most rear ported speakers, meaning i can have these 8" speakers in smaller room and still be able to utilise them properly.

So a summary - if you are in doubt and cant decide to spend extra for 8" instead of 6 or smaller, get 8" - it's all in one package and you will not have an urge to later buy a subwoofer separately.

Another thing i learned from many many reviews prior purchasing these, you will get used to any good studio monitors and will be mixing with confidence.

So join KRK family.

P.S. i use these with Gravity SP 3202 studio monitor holders, amazing combo. Dont buy cheap Millenium ones, I've heard too many bad stories about quality. These KRKs deserve to stand on good stands.

Amazing Set of Studios

I used these on my workstation. And they are one of the best set of studio monitors I've tried. Sound Quality: Excellent, Looks: Excellent and Bang for Buck: Amazing. Best money spent in a long time.

Amazing

Speakers are absolute amazing! Must have!

Perfect!

1. The items in bundle - perfect!

2. 4’th gen of Rokit8 - ideal for mix music and listening in home. Using for home.

3. Packaging and delivery was fast and good! Will recommend this online shop for my friends.

Thnx.

Great sound

Very good value for money. Sound quality is great

As expected.

As I have a home studio for mixing and mastering, I found the monitors very helpful specially in the low frequency, I also have KRK Rokit 5 G4 which is also good but the Rokit 8 elevated my work flow 100%, don't forget to use their KRK app to adjust the sound for your room levels.

Great monitors!

What can I say? I love KRK! Professional sound and very linear! Excatly what you need for a great mix!

Smooth sound

Very nice Mid and Hi. It’s clear and smooth. But you will also need a sub to hear bass rumble. It is hard to feel it without sub.

Superb sound , superb service

Bought for my home studio set up , and I am not disappointed .. read loads of online reviews before purchase , and glad I went for these in the end

Just added the 12s subwoofer and it completes the sound perfectly

Much better, than older versions

The DSP processor has the same features as any other monitor.

incredible bass that doesn't hum at all. All the details are very easy to distinguish and even too pronounced. the high frequencies are quite bright. transients are perfectly audible

amazing

brilliant company to buy from, had a few issues with payment by card but it was sorted really quick and easy, delivery was quick too. 10/10 will buy again, thanks

very good overall

I wanted to upgrade my monitors to 8 inch KRK's hoping not to need a subbass.

Overall build quality is very good, digital screen for eq and settings are easy to use. They are big! So make sure you have enough room on your desk !

These monitors can go really high in volume but in high volumes the sound is very harsh due to very defined mids and hi frequencies.

In low volumes the bass response is adequate but if you crank them up it is better to use with a sub bass to compensate bass frequencies.

There is an audible hiss when the monitors are not in use but i think it can be reduced with hi quality cable connections and earthed power connection.

I am happy i got these and I would recommend it to djs for small house gigs, producers with mid size rooms. If you have a rather big studio room a sub bass would be a good addition.

The G4 is a blast

Before I buy these beasts, I went through 10’s of you tube videos to know whether they will be a good addition to my studio. I found allot of controversy, but I’ve decided to get them and decide for my self.

Once I started my sound test tracks I was astonished, I almost flipped on my back. I’ve tried them with different genres and the results were surprising, I’ve heard sounds I never knew about, although I had these tracks since a while and I’ve heard them hundreds of times, so my music production now will be more more enjoyable over using my 250 ohms headphones.

They have a built in pads so no need for additional pads, unless you need the pads for elevation or tilting.

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.

One important issue to mention is that the RP8 is designed for a larger room, or fully isolated, sound proofed area.

They need to be in about 1-1.5 meters (If not more) away from you and separated by the same.

My conclusion: These beasts are definitely a major go.

Wow!!

So great already had the neighbors at the door several times and i have only had them plugged in for 10 minutes.

All jokes aside these speakers are very clear and great mixing / production monitors. They are great for the value and very high quality.

Great set of budget speakers

Mainly utilising these for electronic music, in a small bedroom "studio". The bass response is reasonably tight and there is an app available to help calibrate the monitors to your room.

They are well made and serve as a very solid budget option.

Highly recommended.

The best monitor available in this price range.

Perfect for music production!!

I bought it more or less 1 month ago and godamn it's really dope, perfect for high and low frequences! I suggest ofc this product for music production.

A step up

This pair of Rokit 8 G4 sounds amazing in my studio. My old Rokit 6 G3 always had a wobble, muddying the low end slightly. The RP8 is crisp and clear overt the entire frequency spectrum. They are really, really good for a couple of monitors in this price range. Together with Sonarworks I have a flat curve from 40Hz up to 20KHz which I couldn't achieve with my my older KRK generation set.
