RP5G5 ROKIT 5 Generation Five 5" Powered Studio Monitor Pair

I got the previous gen (4) in November 2024 and one of the power supplies failed a year later (dried out cap) so I gave that to a buddy of mine who likes to fix things, and upgraded to this gen. They seem marginally cleaner, and make things on YouTube sound ever so slightly worse, which I take as a sign of increased fidelity. (Studio monitors should reproduce mistakes with the same fidelity as anything else, and not paper over them. That's the whole point.) There are better monitors out there at a significantly higher price point. These are more "prosumer" grade, you get what you pay for. If you want to hear more mistakes, get a better set. These go very well with the KRK S10.4 powered sub, which is another good buy, very transparent. I would say look at the size of the room you're going to use, get the right size of speakers (5" is right for my room but maybe not for yours), and get a matching sub (which is also room-dependent.) Don't bother buying these without a matching sub, ideally from KRK. With no sub they're just casual listening devices, and there are better options for that. With a standard "fun" sub they're useless for audio production, as regular subs always color the audio in ways that go against critical listening. If the 5" is right for your room then the S10.4 is likely the right subwoofer as well. Run your audio through the sub to your monitors. Let the sub do the crossover. If you have a treated room and want something better for serious work, I'd look at getting something better than these. They have built-in DSPs and can compensate for various room geometry, but they're not upscale. If you're really serious and have the money, I'd look at Tannoy or something similar that goes beyond the "prosumer" level.

This thing is Badass! Looks, Feels and sounds like amazing quality! Its size compared to others Wow! The best out there!

These are the BEST! Better than Audioengin. The Audioengin HD6 are ok, A5, not even close. I have A5s, HD6s, and these all as a surround. The difference is clear! Get multiple sets of these as surrounds Rokits 8 is the best.

I was never an audiophile, though I did lean toward over the ear, corded, studio headphones to pods of any sort. Better sound. I was listening ti a track that I had heard many times before through these beautiful speakers and I heard extra noise in the track and it threw me off. The bass on the 8’s is incredible. I’m very much enjoying the experience.

Worth it! Very functional! Amazing sound quality !!

Love the sound.

Love KRK's. Everyone's ears are different so I recommend going to your local Guitar Center to hear all the different brands. Yamaha is just too crispy for my liking and Adam Audio's just don't sound right to me. I produce EDM music. EQ functions were great on the GEN 4. They overkilled the EQ functions on these GEN 5's. The app is great for tuning your system as well. Bass response is good by themselves but I would get the S.8 inch subwoofer to pair with them if you can.

Excelente

Due casse solide, ben bilanciate soprattutto nell'impostazione flat e con un ottima resa acustica. Suoni bassi e alti equilibrati, ottimo headroom. Anche il rapporto qualità/prezzo le rende più avvincenti. Le consiglio senz'altro.

Very good small speakers. Sound very good, you can adjust EQ for each speaker. Me i am satisfied and speakers do the job i needed.

Acustica di qualità...articolo valido
