KRK LAUNCHES A NEW ROKIT

29 August 2013

KRK Systems has announced the next generation of its Rokit studio monitors, the Rokit Generation 3 Studio Monitors or a.k.a. the Rokit G3 series. Three models will be available with five, six and eight-inch main drivers, each having an upgraded 1 inch soft dome tweeter and rated at 50 watts, 73 watts and 100 watts respectively. The Rokit G3 still features the familiar yellow composite woofer and a proprietary tuning process that treats the woofer, cabinet and port as a single, integrated whole to provide clarity in the midrange with extended bass response. For the Rokit G3 a re-designed radius cabinet baffle minimizes diffraction and the bi-amped, class A/B amplifier has also been enhanced to maximise headroom while retaining minimal distortion. KRK promises that its monitors won’t distort at higher SPLs and are engineered to deliver clean, accurate sound at any volume level – the high frequencies are crisp, clean and devoid of harshness, the midrange precise and bass accurate. If it sounds like the Rokit G3 are the monitors for you, there isn’t long to wait. World-wide shipping should begin in September.
