    5.0 out of 5 stars excelent studio monitor

    D.S. · January 16, 2024

    Full disclosure, the only music genre I work with is Rock, (hard, melodic, metal etc.) so I can only speak to that with respect to this product.With 35+ years studio experience both as an artist and engineer, I can say these are perfect for all phases of recording, mixing and mastering. The bass has just enough punch to give you a reference when mixing a kick drum and bass to provide adequate separation between the two resulting in a solid bottom end. The mid spectrum is well represented helping to keep that "boxed'" sound at a minimum. The highs are a little on the bright side for my taste but once I got used to what the finished product sounded like on different audio devices I was able to compensate when rolling off 10k during the mastering process. I have no problem with the sleep feature, they wake up pretty quick once they sense audio. The LED logo looks cool and lets me know they are powered on. Not sure why other reviews take a shot at KRK for this feature.I chose this speaker for a few reasons.1. KRK has been in this space for a while giving studios an option other than the de facto yamaha2. I didn't want all the other options like the analyzer. (unnecessary in my opinion)3. Price. 20 years ago you pay $700 for a decent pair of monitors4. Size. They are small and light for a powered monitor.In closing, these speakers do exactly what they were designed to do. Give you an audio reference of your recording, mixing or matering project. They are not going to throw big bass or blast the room. You should have another reference speaker system for that. It takes time and experience to know what a good mix sounds like in a controlled environment like a studio and how that translates once its out in the public being played on thousands of different systems. These speakers provide a great reference to accomplish that.

    I’m no pro, but these things sound great. I use them to mix my songs on GarageBand, as well as to listen to music and jam tracks.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant little studio monitors

    Spent a lot of time reading other reviews etc. Already have 3rd generation 8 inch KRK monitors, with a 10 inch sub that I use in my living room, which are incredible, and wanted some desk monitors for my study/office. Decided that the KRK's are amazing but was not sure I would be able to tell the difference between the 3rd generation and 4 generation series (which are nearly double the price), so got the classic version (3rd generation). So glad I got the KRK's. They are absolutely amazing, I cant believe such small speakers reproduce such incredible sound, including amazing base response. Brilliant value.

    I'm new to home studio type stuff. I didn't want to spend a lot as I am just a bedroom player. I have several amps, guitars, mics etc. I wanted a monitor(s) to supplement my headphones.1. These say they are 5 inch but they are not small. Not ginormous either but sizable.2. Solid and well built.3. They allow me to hear things I didn't hear before.4. Can also double as an amp. My guitar goes into a Boss ME80, out and into a Scarlett 2i2, out to the speakers. Gig ready? No, but for screwing around it's kinda cool.Overall a good deal for 100 bucks per.

    It’s a really good product and the sound quality is amazing!!!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for the price!

    M.D. · January 6, 2024

    These are exactly what I was looking for. My office doesn’t have perfect acoustics but these sound great anyway. I can crank them up to demo my latest Fl Studio track for my wife who doesn’t want to deal with my studio monitor headphones and I don’t have to worry about whether the track will still sound good or not.

    These speakers are great. They are sold individually so I bought two. I could’ve survived with just one but I like even numbers. Also, you will need to purchase your own cord for an audio connection as this only comes with the power cord. Picture attached shows the available connections.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The KRK 5" Classic Studio Monitors set the standard in their price range

    The media could not be loaded. English:The KRK 5" Classic Studio Monitors set the standard in their price range, making it challenging for other monitors to compete. Offering excellent quality at an affordable price, I always recommend monitors with at least a 5-inch size, as anything smaller tends to produce low sound and can lead to issues, especially in low frequencies. These monitors deliver a fantastic quality that I wholeheartedly endorse. Having a monitor with high volume capability is crucial to me since dynamic range plays a significant role in my mixing process. I aim to mix at -18dB volume, and with these monitors, I can hear my mixes loud and clear. I recommend avoiding adjustments to the controls behind the monitor, even if you know what you're doing. Nothing beats proper acoustic treatment, and using earphones for precision is advisable. Personally, I leave everything at default settings with the volume set at 0 dB.Español:Los Monitores de Estudio KRK 5" Classic establecen el estándar en su rango de precio, siendo difícil para otros monitores competir. Ofreciendo una calidad excelente a un precio asequible, siempre recomiendo monitores de al menos 5 pulgadas, ya que cualquier tamaño menor tiende a producir un sonido bajo y puede causar problemas, especialmente en las frecuencias bajas. Estos monitores ofrecen una calidad fantástica que recomiendo plenamente. Para mí, tener un monitor con una capacidad de volumen alto es crucial, ya que el rango dinámico desempeña un papel importante en mi proceso de mezcla. Mi objetivo es mezclar a un volumen de -18 dB, y con estos monitores, puedo escuchar mis mezclas fuertes y claras. Recomiendo no realizar ajustes en los controles detrás del monitor, incluso si sabes lo que estás haciendo. Nada sustituye un tratamiento acústico adecuado, y es aconsejable utilizar auriculares para mayor precisión. Personalmente, dejo todo en los ajustes predeterminados con el volumen configurado en 0 dB.

    Buenos monitores de entrada

    Por el precio estos KRK hacen un gran trabajo. Si estas buscando unos monitores para empezar un home studio pero no tienes tanto presupuesto esta alternativa es mucho mejor que las típicas bocinas pasivas como la serie Presonus Eris y las Mackie. Esas son bocinas de computadora mas de decentes que la mayoría, pero no dejan de ser bocinas sencillas. Estas KRK tienen una respuesta de graves bastante decente para el precio y para ser de 5". Yo estoy acostumbrado a mezclar con unos Yamaha HS5 en el trabajo y me gusta mucho más el sonido de los KRK. Si es cierto que los Yamaha tienen mejor definición en las frecuencias media pero carecen demaciado de graves. Sus hermanos mayores los HS8 por otro lado son una maravilla. Pero en este caso prefiero percibir más del KRK que los HS5 aunque me entreguen mas definición en teoría. Los krk son mucho más "divertidos".Y sobre todo comparando el precio. Yo los compré como en 5,000 el par esperando algo mediocre pero solo los quería para tener algo en casa. Por el trabajo estoy acostumbrado a escuchar unos Focal Alpha de 8", Yamaha HS5 y sobre todo Yamaha HS8 en diversos estudios.Pero estos KRK me soprendieron cuando los escuché. No sé escuchan igual de bien que unos de 8" pero repito. Para su precio hacen un gran trabajo.

    Great product
