The KRK RP8 G5 Studio Monitor brings next-generation monitoring to your production workflow with precision, power and flexibility.
Built for modern studios, home setups and immersive environments, the RP8 G5 delivers an 8″ Kevlar woofer, silk-dome tweeter, bi-amped Class-D power and three distinct voicing modes that offer “three monitors in one.” From critical mix decisions to creative playback sessions, this monitor adapts to your workflow — not the other way around. With DSP-driven room tuning, 25 selectable boundary and EQ presets, and an intuitive LCD interface (plus companion mobile app support), the RP8 G5 makes it easier than ever to dial in an accurate listening environment. The front-firing port and refined cabinet design reduce placement constraints while offering deep low-end extension and clean transient response. Whether you’re tracking, mixing, or finishing, the RP8 G5 provides the clarity, control and trust you demand from a reference monitor.

POSSIBLY THE BEST "BUDGET" MONITOR
Jan 12th 2010This was and still is my first real set of monitors and I could not be happier! The frequency response is fantastic, its a perfect balance of not being too hyped so that it throws off your mixes, but somehow still sounds amazing if you are just listening to music you love! The bass on these are perfect without overpowering other frequencies. It has settings you can tweak on the back to fit your room, built like a tank, and look sexy! I honestly just love everything about these monitors and they beat out almost every other monitor in its price range and above. I picked these up from here for $200 each, so always keep your eye out on here for great deals!
