The KRK ROKIT series has reigned as among world’s most trusted studio reference monitors for decades. The Generation Five (G5) iteration seriously ups at ante with three innovative voicing modes, DSP room tuning, and a new driver design that extends the frequency range plus provides enhanced damping and modal breakup control. KRK ROKIT G5 monitors also feature Class D power amplifiers that utilize the famous KRK brickwall limiter and a front-firing port that accurately reproduces low end, in addition to allowing more options for pacing your monitors. To help you set up your listening environment, the KRK ROKIT G5 retains an LCD as well as the ultra-handy KRK App for both iOS and Android. Finally, the KRK ROKIT G5 features an LCD that helps you visualize 25 different graphic EQs — the only monitor in its class with such a feature.
Three Voicing Modes — Mix, Create, and Focus — provide the flexibility of three monitors in one. First, Mix mode provides you with a flat frequency and phase response for when it’s time to mix and master. Next, Create mode is meant writing and producing music, and it’s also an excellent setting for casual listening. Finally, Focus mode focuses on midrange frequencies so you can precisely correct any “honkiness” in your mixes.
While Music Experience mix engineers champion mixing with your ears and not your eyes, they also know that visual feedback can be handy. That’s why they laud the KRK ROKIT G5’s LCD, which lets you visualize 25 different EQ combinations — the only monitor in its class that utilizes such a feature. In conjunction with the KRK ROKIT G5’s DSP-driven Room Tuning, this functionality helps you deftly address acoustic problems in your listening environment.
The KRK ROKIT G5 monitors brandish a couple of significant analog features. First, they utilize custom Class D amplifiers that both evenly power the drivers, improve efficiency at reduced temperatures, and work alongside the revered KRK Brick Wall Limiter to achieve and maintain a more balanced sound, wider dynamic range, and protect your system from mishaps. Second, the KRK ROKIT G5’s front-firing port provides you with a more focused bass representation and gives you much more flexibility regarding your monitor placement.
The KRK Systems ROKIT 5 Generation Five is the most advanced studio monitor in its class. Whether you’re working on a chart-topping hit, a film score, or a personal project, they provide the tools you need to capture every nuance of your sound with astonishing clarity. Part of the Fifth Generation of KRK ROKIT Studio Monitors, along with the ROKIT 7 Generation Five and ROKIT 8 Generation Five, their onboard DSP technology provides three distinct Voicing Modes. Mix Mode, with flat frequency and phase response, is best for mixing, mastering, and critical listening. Create Mode is a more inspirational voicing best used for writing, producing, and casual listening. Focus Mode is a mid-focused voicing for critical analysis of the midrange band where vocals and most instruments have the most energy. The three Mix Modes eliminate the need for separate sets of monitors for different tasks. It’s like having three pairs of monitors in one. The ROKIT 5 Generation Five also features 25 boundary and tuning EQ combinations that help minimize and correct problems in your acoustic environment, and with the aid of the free KRK App, they make setting up your recording environment easy and precise. The ROKIT 5 Generation Five is fitted with a 5” woven Kevlar® aramid fiber cone woofer for superior damping and modal breakup control. The 1” tweeter benefits from a highly damped acoustic silk dome diaphragm to smoothly extend the frequency range up to 40 kHz. For maximum transient response and dynamics reproduction, bi-amplified Class D power amplifiers drive the transducers evenly and more efficiently at reduced operating temperatures to ensure audio integrity during long work sessions. The world’s leading studio monitor manufacturer, KRK’s sonic accuracy and performance have made them the choice of professionals worldwide for over 35 years. Experience them for yourself, and you’ll agree–the KRK Systems ROKIT 5 Generation Five continues that tradition of sonic excellenc.
With new Mix, Focus, and Create Voicing Modes that are optimized for different monitoring applications, the ROKIT Generation Five Studio Monitors provide 3-in-1 monitoring flexibility.
The onboard DSP provides 25 boundary and EQ combinations to help minimize and correct problems in your acoustic environment.
Separate custom-designed Class D power amplifiers for the woofer and tweeter deliver better audio integrity and reduced operating temperature.
The KRK ROKIT Generation Five features a woven Kevlar® aramid fiber cone woofer for superior damping and modal breakup control, while a new 1” tweeter benefits from a highly damped silk dome diaphragm that smoothly extends the high frequency range up to 40 kHz.
