Great Monitors

I was all set to buy the 7 inch version of these but listened to them both and the 5 inch sounded way cleaner.

With the move to working from home, I needed to upgrade my desk set up. I use these monitors for amateur mixing and voice work, as well as listening to music, watching movies, and video calls. I wanted a relatively flat, accurate reproduction, and these fit the bill nicely. One thing to note: They go into standby mode after about 30 mins, and start back up very quickly. This is great, as you can just leave them on all the time. A nice touch of detail.

Amazing!

My first step into the world of pro monitors and these things sound fantastic! I've mainly been mixing with my Sennheiser HD650s and these feel like a worthy counterpart for my sessions. Still getting acquainted to the nuances of these but the sound that comes out them is terrific. Great bass response and clean mids and highs. At this price point, I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with these!

Fantastic sound from small packages

Can't get over how good these little monitors sound. Well worth the price!

Never buy KRK Rokits until they solve Black Gunk

By Michael Angelo
Rated 1 out of 5
Date: 2020-11-25

Google KRK black gunk and you'll see KRK uses black gunk material to insulate components from vibration. This material eventually gets into the electronics and destroys the speakers. KRK does nothing to change this and the repair costs time and complexity far outweighs the original purchase price. A very hard lesson after investing in many many pairs and models of KRK Rokits. It's only a matter of time before they are worthless in my experience.

Never Thought I'd Like KRK

By Randolph

I wanted another set of monitors to use with an old set. My previous monitors are twenty plus years old, and I figure I'm tempting fate not having a backup set. They still sound great, but vintage monitors are not the same as vintage guitars... I'll be honest, I was planning on buying the Kali's since I never liked the old KRK monitors, but for some reason couldn't pull the trigger. After the Kali sale ended I found this set which included the Mackie Big Knob for free (that I was also going to buy anyway). I took a chance and ordered them. Shockingly I got them the next day even though I ordered them in the afternoon! I even had to check my invoice to make sure I didn't hit overnight by mistake, but it was standard ground shipping. The packing was excellent as well. That's not always my experience at B&H so kudos to them on that. The KRKs have a load of tweaking options but are easy to fine tune from the back. The sound is far better than any soundclip I heard while researching them. They're not premium studio monitors, but they are much closer than the price suggests. For me it's nice they are available in white since my old monitors are also white. KRK has definitely improved dramatically since I first tried them years ago. I hope they last as long as my old monitors.

Love these speakers!

KRK Rokit 5 speakers are outstanding! The sound is so clear and clean, the speakers are strong -- I just love the sound. Should have gotten these years ago. Glad I got them.

Cables needed to connect to a Focusrite solo

Cables needed to connect to a Focusrite solo
Asked by: Bobby
That will depend on which generation of Scarlett Solo you have. Assuming you have a pair of the Rokit 5 G4's, if your Solo is 2nd Generation will need two rca to xlr male cables like these B&H # COCRMXM6. If your Solo is the newer 3rd generation, then you will need two trs to xlr male cables like these B&H # PEPMTRSXM06.

You will need more than cables. The first thing you will need is a Peavey USB-P - USB "Direct Box". You can find it on the B&H website BH #PEUSBP. Then 2 XLR cables to connect the speakers to the Peavey.
