The next important studio monitor change is in the matching woofer composition of the KRK Rokit 5 G4 models. The G3 speaker’s woofers were made of Glass Aramid, whereas the G4 version comes equipped with woofers and tweeters made from Kevlar. What particular manufacturer is for you will come down to audio integrity and aesthetic taste differences. Without showing too much bias, know that it is worth doing your research on what is available, and ideally, listen to the options at a local store. The KRK Rokit G4s have been engineered to ensure top quality sound. This monitor has a matching woofer and tweeter designed by KRK for a balanced, unified sound. With DSP-driven room tuning and a 25 visual graphic EQ you can take full advantage of the sound quality by tuning in the perfect sound to match the acoustics in your environment. The custom Class D power amplifier at the heart of this monitor is a new design that drives the speakers in a more even and efficient way meaning there’s less wasted energy resulting in a clearer sound. The speakers that come installed in the Rokit RP5 G4 are not hi-fi speakers. They, therefore, color the sound just a little. Despite this, the fact that they are not hi-fi speakers makes them the best option for monitoring, even better than some of the best-specialized headphones in the game. Note that these monitors are not also designed to fill a room with sound. They are simply near-field monitors. The further you go, the lower the audio will sound. Overall they are of a similar build quality too: compact and sturdy with rigid enclosures that are ideal for cutting down distortion, and the Yamahas also feature specially-designed mounting rings on the front to also help cut down vibration. The rigid cabinets on both also deliver a tight transient response, meaning the speakers should reproduce and follow your sound accurately and speedily and without flab.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers. Essentially it boils down to the fact that we would be happy to use them as studio monitors if we had to. The additional customization options are also very neat. After trying to mix with the KRK Rokit RP5 G4 monitors, the end product translated well on other speaker systems. As an incredibly valuable tool for audio and music production, the KRK CLASSIC 5 powered studio monitors incorporate over 30 years of innovation from the world’s leading studio monitor manufacturer.

With the optional +2dB KRK Bass Boost, the CLASSIC 5 holds true to the sound that music creators around the world have loved for years. Time-TrustedKRK did a great job with improving their Rokit G4 studio monitor range. Judging from the 5-inch model which we tested, the company’s promises held up.

Unusually for a speaker of this price, you get an on-board DSP feature EQ with 25 different settings to help you match the speakers to your room. They are active speakers too – no external amps required – with class D amps delivering 35 and 20 watts to the bass and high frequency drivers respectively. That's enough to power small to medium set-ups. If you are mixing in a larger space, the bigger Rokit G4s deliver a power output from 145 to 300 watts, enough for much bigger studios. KRK explains that this too adds enhanced sound qualities, which translates to improved clarity of overall listening experience.

There are four presets, plus a flat frequency response option, both in the low and high EQ registers. EQ options on speakers themselves are usually more in the broad stroke range, and the Rokit 5 G4 gives users a good bunch of brushes as it is. Lows The sound and the feel of the low end on the G4 is deep, open, and dimensional. It is best described as less blunt than previous models, and offers more low-end detail and nuance than before, most likely due to the use of Kevlar. 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.
