KRK RP8G2 (Pair) + Free Stands + Cables

The KRK RokitG2 Series takes value-priced monitors to a new performance level. All of the great stuff that Rokit’s have been known for (front-firing bass port, soft-domed tweeter, glass aramid composite yellow cone) are still there, but the G2 Rokit’s feature refined voicing and a new curved baffle that looks great, reduces diffraction and provides even better monitoring accuracy. Studio Monitor Series from KRK Systems. For years the Rokit series has been a popular choice for accurate monitoring in studios large and small. Now the all new Generation 2 RoKit provides a new standard for even better performance and accuracy, raising the bar once again.

No Pain With Gain

Why compromise gain structure to achieve a comfortable listening level? As musicians and recording people ourselves, we've asked that question too. So each Generation 2 Rokit comes with an Input Volume Control that provides an adjustable gain range from +6dB to -30dB. Just another way the Rokit lets you focus on your mix, and not on compatibility concerns.

Catch A Wave, For A 3D Mix

Recessed tweeters may look the same, but they don't perform the same. KRK has designed a superior tweeter wave guide for the Rokit that provides optimal high frequency pattern control and focuses the sound outward, away from the cabinet. More conventional designs direct sound along the plane of the cabinet where waveform interaction can cause phase problems and increased diffraction. KRK knows a properly engineered high frequency wave guide is a critical component to great sound, and one key to our award winning performance.

You’ve Got Connections

At KRK our focus is your mix. But it doesn't stop at creating accurate monitors. We live this stuff and appreciate the need for monitors that not only sound great but work easily into your particular set up. That's why you'll find plenty of input options with your Rokit, sure to accommodate any studio environment. So if it's RCA, Quarter-Inch (balanced/unbalanced) or XLR inputs you require, Rokit has got you covered.

Even More Accurate Than Before

We took a great monitor series and made it better. Our engineers and listening panel took the Generation 2 Rokits’ speaker voicing to even more accurate levels. What you hear is what you are intended to hear, coloration is not part of the spec. This performance is brought to you by drivers that are custom-designed by our world-class studio monitor engineering team, for clear, low-distortion performance.

Take Control

While your Generation 2 Rokit leaves the factory voiced to our demanding specs, KRK also knows that no two rooms "sound" the same. As such, each Rokit comes equipped with a High Frequency Level Control. This feature provides specific adjustment of high frequency output most commonly affected by room acoustics. It's just one extra level of control that KRK gives you to ensure the most accurate mix for your particular room's acoustics.

Don’t Be Square, Curves Ahead

Our new Rokit looks different, so it can sound better, and in a wider "sweet spot". Traditional rectangular speakers suffer from diffraction as sounds leaving the edge of the cabinet are reflected back into the original sound field, and at different time intervals. This phase distortion creates a "narrow" or boxy" sound. The Generation 2 Rokit series eliminates this issue with radically engineered curved surfaces, so diffraction is virtually eliminated. Simply put, you'll get better sound in a wider area.

Let’s Be Up Front

Take a look at competitive monitors and you'll find ports on the back of the cabinet. These rear-firing ports tend create bass coupling with walls and corners amplifying low frequency information which will color your mix. The superior design of the KRK Generation 2 Rokit’s include front-firing ports, which are just the right shape and taper to reduce port turbulence. You'll appreciate the clean and accurate bass performance, this approach delivers, even at high SPL’s.

Power Up!

A great sounding monitor doesn’t stop with a great cabinet and custom drivers. Our true bi-amplified amplifier system provides discrete low-distortion power for each driver. While our active crossover systems provide smooth and accurate frequency response, and again, accurate diffraction control.

High-performance XLR cable!
For more than 30 years, Whirlwind has been producing high-quality audio cables with musicians in mind. You can benefit from their experience on the stage or in the studio with their workhorse cable, the MC20. They come in 20-foot lengths, so you can route them wherever they are needed.

Balanced for clean audio
XLR cables are the most common format in your rig. You connect them to your microphones, patch them to the mixer or the snake, and run them out to powered speakers. The MC20 is a balanced XLR to XLR cable, designed to handle any of these duties while preventing unwanted interference from entering the signal path. Outfit your whole rig with these balanced cables for clean, noise-free music!

Quality components
As with all their cables, MC20's are built to Whirlwind's exacting specifications, using only the finest components. The XLR connectors have excellent strain-relief to prevent damage no matter how many times you plug and unplug them. Whether your cables stay connected in the studio or you take them out on the road, you'll have years of trouble-free use. No more tedious hours spent looking for a short circuit.

Flexible and durable
On tour, cables come out of the van, get uncoiled for the show, then wrapped up again for the trip to the next venue. They get stepped on, twisted around mic stands, and tripped-over. All this wear can take its toll, leading to cracks, shorts, and ultimately, poor sound quality. Whirlwind uses a finely stranded 22-gauge wire for the MC20's center core, and a strong, supple jacket to ward off nicks and scrapes. Your cables will have the toughness and flexibility to stand up to heavy road abuse, no matter how long you're on tour. No one wants to hunt for a music store 20 minutes before the gig, so make sure your cables are reliable and ready to rock when you are.
