KRK 5 G3 Overview

The black Rokit 5 G3 from KRK is a 50W two-way active studio monitor for your home or professional studio. Equipped with a bi-amped, class A/B amplifier that powers a 5" woofer and a 1" tweeter, the Rokit 5 G3 is designed to offer maximum headroom with minimal distortion. The soft-dome tweeter, which provides extended response up to 35 kHz, is designed with a proprietary waveguide that is optimized for improved imaging. The aramid glass composite woofer has been engineered to deliver a clear response in the midrange along with a tight low end.

The speaker is housed in a low resonance enclosure that includes a factory installed foam pad at the bottom to provide improved isolation from the surface it's set upon. Under the woofer there is a front firing port that provides an extended low frequency response while reducing boundary coupling at the same time. Additionally, the enclosure features radiused edges that reduce distortion caused by diffraction.

The Rokit 5 G3 also provides flexible connectivity, allowing for input via XLR, TRS or RCA connection. It also provides both low and high frequency adjustments so you can tailor the speaker's response curve to your personal taste.

20W high frequency power, 30W low frequency power
45 Hz - 35 kHz frequency range
Gain adjustment in rear for setting maximum level

question

How can I plug into this if I'm coming from a digital optical audio output?
Asked by: akira
I looked into using these for surround sound and it turned out that I'd need a pretty expensive AV receiver that can split down the digital optical signal into its line components (L, R, C, rL, rR, Sub). So, an intermediary 'mixer' is required to decode the digital signal and split it down. The input to the speaker is line-signal (TRS, XLR)

question

What is the country of origin of this speaker?
Asked by: Francis L.
I don't the manufacturing location; but . . . I would want to know, that . . . the built-in volume cut-off, wherein the speakers turn off when there is an extended period of low volume, is a freaking pain in the butt. I hate that flaw, not feature. If you buy them, and you use them at a level I'd compare to comfortable radio listening, you'll wish you had gone with a different brand, because you'll find yourself reaching for the volume knob, turning it to 11 so the speakers can turn back on , every 5 minutes. For that, they suck. Sound? Perfect.
