Even More Accurate than Before

We took a great monitor series and made it better. Our engineers and listening panel took the Generation 2 RoKit’s 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. Other cool stuff that has gone into the G2s are:

Recessed Tweeters – Our recessed tweeters may look the same as others, but they don't perform the same. Our careful design of dome and waveguide geometry coupled to the curved front baffle are optimized for on and off-axis linearity resulting in excellent imaging and a wider sweet spot.

High Frequency Level 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.

Gain Structure – Our gain structure is engineered for the studio and not the showroom. We don’t add excessive gain to make the monitors appear to play louder – which by the way, also adds significant hiss to the monitor system. The Generation 2 RoKit comes with an Input Volume Control that provides an adjustable gain range from +6dB to -30dB. What that means to you is No Pain With Gain.

Bi-Amplified System – A great sounding monitor doesn’t stop with a great cabinet and custom drivers. Our true bi-amplified system provides discrete low-distortion power for each driver. Our active crossover systems provide smooth and accurate frequency response.

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 with 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, 1/4 inch (balanced/unbalanced) or XLR inputs you require, RoKit has got you covered.

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.
