3. KKR ROKIT 5 Review
Build Quality – kkr rokit 5
I think they are well built, I didn`t find anything to complain about.
Sound Quality – of kkr rokit 5
Stereo Imaging
You can`t really locate a sound in the stereo image. I didn`t have the feeling that anything was
centered on this monitors, it was something like a sound-cloud where every instrument was blurred
so it sounded nice but not detailed or accurate.
Space
The same as stereo image, literally not judge-able. My electronic music consits of a lot of reverbs
which make the athmosphere. I always had to guess and adjust the verbs by knowledge and not by
ear. On our bad sounding Yamaha PA in the rehearsal room the reverbs and its spaces sounded
better than on the Rokit 5.
Frequency Spectrum
That`s the biggest fault in my eyes. They aren`t detailed, they lie to you and tell you that your mids
are just right and they sound perfect but in reality your mids aren`t here or at least anywhere else.
Mixing bass was, like mixing reverbs, always a guessing game. I hardly mixed a bass right in terms of
volume.
Eqing on the Rokit 5 is another guessing game. You have to boost or cut so much to hear a result ...
4. Conclusion
I know it sounds a little bit like "Bobo" telling you
this because not everybody has a lot of money
for good monitors but I am telling you anyway :
it`s better to save some money and buy
something different. I`d say it`s better to work
with a midpriced AKG headphone than throwing
your money out of the money.
If I had to look for monitors in this pricerange
nowadays I´d rather save some more extra bucks
and buy at least Yamaha HS80. To me and my
ears they are sounding a lot more honestly than
KRK RP5 RoKit G2
