KRK Rokit RP5 G4

Świetne monitory w dobrej cenie. Nie ma co się rozpisywać, jest tu wszystko czego trzeba. Płaska charakterystyka, świetne przenoszenie transientów, bardzo szczegółowa panorama. Polecam dorzucić do nich jakiś subwoofer.
Jeśli miałbym się do czegokolwiek doczepić to to że długo wybudzają się ze stanu uśpienia, i potrzeba im na to dosyć wysokiego sygnału, zdarza mi się podgłośnić tylko po to aby je ,,obudzić" po tym gdy nie używałem ich przez jakiś czas, a jak już się wybudziły ściszałem, chociaż to jest naprawdę pierdoła.

After my KRK Rokit 5 G2s broke down, which had been in operation for 12 years, I had to choose new studio monitors for my home studio. Unfortunately, while choosing right monitors I did not have the opportunity to listen to everything I wanted in my studio, local stores room acoustics did not allow you to fully experience the sound, but what exactly could be assessed regardless of the acoustic design is the constant noise level of the high-frequency speakers ... Despite the negative assessments of the noise level of the KRK G4 presented in the reviews, I noted the opposite for myself - no others were quieter than these. As a result, without thinking twice, I decided to make a forced upgrade from G2 to G4 (I had only one monitor out of order, if G2 were still on sale, maybe I would buy another one G2). The monitors are the same height as the second generation, but a little wider, about 1 centimeter, the "KRK yellow color" has become a little softer.
And now regarding the sound: for the sake of interest I decided to listen to the master tracks mixed on Rockit G2 and was amazed about how much more detailed the upper mids and high frequencies became and the width of the stage increased. Amazing! I am very happy about the choice I made.
There is an LCD display at the back, where you can make EQ adjustments - unfortunately, due to its limitations, this function, for me personally, is useless (maybe the built-in 16-band equalizer would be more suitable for this), I made all the room adjustments using other hardware-software (also did not even try to use the mobile application ). What's cool about this monitor is that now you can be 100% sure that the volume level of the monitors is set the same, there was no confidence in the accuracy of the position of the analog regulators in previous generations. Also, you can make the logo glow a little less, or turn it off, but (!) when they are switching to standby mode, dim settings do not matter, and the logo starts blinking from the absolute absence of glow to the brightest, doesn't matter wether dim mode is selected or not. I could not find any other cons. Everything is very, very good.

Although I do some video editing and very simple music production I am not really an audio engineer, nor musician. I do like good sound though and I own and have owned multiple speakers and headphones. For pleasure and more studio focused flat ones. As I was looking to set up my new office space I decided to go for studio monitors because not only they sound a thousand times better than any other PC speakers, they are generally not fatiguing too . So how did I end up with KRK- I tested Presonus line (3.5, 4.5BT) with Presonus sub8, also M-audio BX5. And well.. Presonus had a tot missing in high frequences but I was generally very happy with M-audio, however they had a couple of design issues although sounded pretty flat and natural. However when I compared them with KRK it felt like someone took the cotton out of my ears. KRKs have such a nice high frequency response. Not only it gives more info, it's not really sharp or unpleasant. The stereo imaging is fantastic so the staging in the end is very effective, the mids are precise and well balanced even in complex rock songs they perform without a fault. The lows are very good too. I ran some audio-tests and they go even lower than advertised but generally are excellent across the range. Combine them with the sub to give a bit more of excitement on lower volumes (Cheap Presonus sub8 pairs nicely too) and you will have an incredible audiophile level listening experience at your desk. There is plenty of bass when you turn them up a little so for audio mastering sub is not needed imho. I cannot think of anything in this price range able to match such combo. The KRKs are build very well, the eq setting works well and what is nice is that you can be 100% sure volume is the same on both speakers.

Obviously the experiences are very personal especially for non professional listening, but I personally cannot find anything to complain about Rockkit 5

KRK Rokit RP5 G4

These monitors are awesome! - I concur!
Insanely good monitors for the price! - I concur!

Much wider frequency response than the official spec. suggests.
Low bass down into sub region without an extra sub woofer.
Low E on 4 string bass is apparently unattenuated.
Synthetic sub bass still strong.
Highs are clear and clean.
Sounds strong and punchy across the entire frequency range.
Bass is thumpy and not woolly, but not excessively either.

These sound incredibly loud in a small room - the sound really hits you.

I left all the adjustments at factory settings for a flat response - I will need to get my ears used to all the sounds I've not been hearing on any other monitors before making any changes. I did disable the Sleep Mode, however after other reviewers comments.

I've read all the other reviews, and wanted to check such things as:

Hiss.
No trace audible with the cable unplugged!
After reconnecting by cable to the Fun Generation RTA-31 and Vitaliser Mk2-T still no hiss until the Vitaliser Mk2-T warmed up and switched on the internal relay. Then a very slight hiss became audible.
No hiss was being produced by the monitor.

Crackles?
None detected - check your cables and connectors.

Clipping-Overload?
None detected, but check you aren't overdriving the input.
