Troubleshooting

If you’re having trouble, check out these tips...

If there is no power, check to see if...

• The power cord is plugged into both the IEC socket on the rear panel of the monitor and into the AC mains. The KRK logo on the front face plate will illuminate when the monitor is powered on.

• The AC mains voltage is matched to the operating voltage requirements (see Changing Voltage in the Connecting Your System section on page 6). If the AC mains voltage is higher than the selected voltage on the RoKit, it is possible that the fuse needs to be replaced (see Changing Fuses in the Connecting Your System section on page6).

• The KRK logo is illuminated on the front panel of the RoKit. If not, turn the power switch off and check the A/C mains fuse(s). NEVER USE A LARGER AMPERAGE FUSE THAN IS SPECIFIED! Turn the power switch back on. The power light should illuminate.

Note: If a fuse change was needed (and the AV mains voltage is set correctly) yet upon powering the monitor back up the fuse(s) blow again, the monitor needs to be returned to the dealer you purchased it from, or to KRK, for servicing.

If you can’t hear any sound...

• Repeat the steps in the Troubleshooting section above before continuing to the next steps.

• Check to see if all other audio devices using the same AC outlet are still operating.

• Make sure that:

• The audio source cable is plugged into both the source output and the monitor input.

• The System Gain pot is turned up fully clockwise (+6dB).

• The signal source (e.g. mixing console, work station, CD player, etc.) is turned up to a level that can properly send a signal to the monitors.

• Check to see if one of the monitors is working. Exchange the audio input cable from the non-working monitor to the working unit. This will determine whether it's really the monitor, a faulty cable, or some other glitch in the audio chain.

• If the monitor is still not responding, it should be returned to the dealer that you purchased it from, or to KRK, for servicing.

If the monitor suddenly stops working...

• Turn the monitor send down or off.

• Repeat the steps in the Troubleshooting sections above before continuing to the next steps.

• Carefully check to see if the amplifier’s back plate is hot! If the monitor has been running at its highest power output for an extended period of time, it could be that the unit has become overheated and the protection circuitry has shut the system down momentarily. Your RoKit G2 monitor provides maximum circuitry protection against AC power surges, amplifier overdrive, and overheating of the amplifiers. Turn the monitor off then wait 30 minutes to allow the back plate to cool down. Turn the power switch back on.

• Increase the volume to check for normal operation.

• If the monitor is still not responding, it should be returned to the dealer that you purchased it from, or to KRK, for servicing.

G2 specifications

The KRK G2, part of the well-respected KRK line of studio monitors, represents a significant advancement in audio technology, designed for both professionals and enthusiasts in music production and sound design. With a commitment to delivering accurate sound reproduction, the G2 series continues to be a popular choice among audio engineers, producers, and musicians.

One of the standout features of the KRK G2 monitors is their bi-amplified design. Each speaker is equipped with separate amplifiers for the high and low frequencies, which translates to better dynamic range and improved performance. The bi-amplification ensures that the speakers can handle a wide range of frequencies without distortion, allowing for clearer and more accurate sound reproduction.

The G2 series incorporates KRK’s proprietary Kevlar drivers that provide consistent sonic performance across the entire frequency spectrum. The use of Kevlar results in a more rigid and durable driver, reducing coloration and enabling a more transparent sound. This is especially important for monitoring applications where precision is key.

Another notable feature of the KRK G2 monitors is the front-firing bass port. This design enhances the low-end response without compromising the overall sound quality. It allows for better placement of the monitors in smaller spaces while minimizing boundary coupling, resulting in a clearer and more defined bass response. Additionally, the monitor’s frequency response ranges from 38 Hz to 40 kHz, providing an extensive range that caters to varied audio applications.

The G2 series also includes user-friendly controls such as front panel volume, and rear-panel EQ adjustments that allow for fine-tuning the monitor’s performance based on the specific acoustic characteristics of the room. This flexibility makes them suitable for a wide range of environments, from home studios to professional recording setups.

Furthermore, the KRK G2 monitors come with a sleek, modern design that not only looks appealing but also enhances their functionality. The distinctive yellow cone is emblematic of KRK's identity and serves as a visual cue of the premium audio performance users can expect.

In conclusion, the KRK G2 monitors combine innovative technologies with user-focused features to deliver an exceptional listening experience. With their bi-amplified design, Kevlar drivers, front-firing bass port, and adjustable EQ options, they empower creators to achieve high-quality sound reproduction, making them a favored choice in the competitive arena of audio monitoring. Whether you are a seasoned professional or an aspiring music producer, the KRK G2 series offers the tools you need to fine-tune your audio projects.
