to create sounds is faithful I have nothing to reproach him for not rely against the beauty of a mix (after listening on another system: too much bass, rhythm too forward and less hot)

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>With the exprience, you do again this choice?</span>
no it's on but what a leap forward for a novice. I resell I'm just not used to subdue movies and listen to music. but next pairs will be analytical and for compo

Based guitarist I make a half and I have composed a groovebox for purchase m'acompagner. the top I started to do as the drum n bass and I soon made Earl that mla hi-fi was going to die that the sounds in the headphones were working foirreux after passing over the baffles and baffle following the pair as I changeaint it again. In short it was the shit etv deception after a night's work for the headphones in. wake the neighbors to hear before going to bed as this one-half of the work did not go in the cabinets, no more dynamics for I dvais push the volume, but suddenly it's distorting.
So I had to buy the speakers sound but with the volume of pasque c I like to feel all that vibrates to the sound of the bass I am a student so I am that this should not too expensive.

SOUNDS

Well, I do not have much experience in terms of monitoring ebcientes and I can not give an opinion comari valid. It's not like a hi-fi c bcp better to tell the truth I heard my song in a different light and I had to rework a lot of sounds.
All the people who are, hear these speakers (which are some pot dj mix from the above) were here on the ass. Anyway now I dream of c of the series subwoofer! c but by greed and then I go and live the dvraity campgne.
I also meant that the sound is already very good at low volume and he is doing when it EnCorr earache.

OVERALL OPINION

Ben er c foot doing it three weeks that I am in shock and it'll last. If I have waste pasque c I saw that advice really positive notament for value for money I would add that the volume is really good especially since I bought them at launch ISP c to say for the 598th pair.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought the 8 Rokit 1 month ago now knowing that I own for 2 NS10M ans.je Listen wanted another one to improve my mix and my t sduit I really mastering their prcicion I MODEL 8 price "for a better power.
instrumentals for anything from a dir as all the Quazi monitor the sub is welcome for a better performance against the grave by a mix of really great genial voice c: clarity, warmth pleasant trs , with a ti NS10M ilme missed something and it is the revelation, my mixes are optimized to their best performance.
I try a lot of as MODEL: Tapco, m-audio, Alesis, Behringer and Genelec (too expensive for me) my choice c then turned to the seri KRK V was a bit too expensive so I test the Rokit there was no picture I have taken right away
if my choice had to rebuild with a little more I would take the V8 under the same brand but for now I'll order the sub KRK RP10 and cons for me to say my college c a reference.
but be careful if want vs vs buy monitoring test before ns all have one ear DIFFERENT my opinion is very personal

Hi
Well I have not bought but I can I take ...
I cost my home seller and compared bcp else and I'm really rest on
ass ... I'm used to the old speakers that Dad had bought the era and are really not bad for the tjrs costs. But to mix the sound from the speakers and the sound too different from the headphone so I deferred monitoring ...
I mix of minimal, electro, tek, and all styles of thing (there are so many names) ...
For this kind of music these speakers are great the bass is magic, you go up a little sound and a chilling lol ...

SOUNDS

Of course, if you use these speakers to listen to rock or classical music is likely to regret it. But for music with good bass is gnial
For the stereo image I can not say the top position not silent ...
The sound is clear even trs super low noise I find that the spectrum is super clear ...

OVERALL OPINION

The + + +:

The LOW
spectrum
beauty (c frankly class ...)
the possibility to adjust the bass and treble (I say was because it is found in
MAUDIO example in the same price range ...)

and ---:
not suitable for all music
it's a shame we will not fall dessou of 45Hz in the bass
krk'll have been able to provide protection for the speakers

Otherwise I could compare them with yam, MAUDIO, tannoy in the same price range are the krk ahead, nothing to see is not the same music that comes out ...
I also compared to the Mackie HR824 for fun in the beginning (the mackie cost more than double the krk) and I t dessu the mackie for the music I listen to the difference in price is not really explained and more saturated Mackies super (connection problem to the vendor APRS) ...

I think if I have more I lean towards using the little box with V8 S12 is going well but for my budget (which is already high for pregnant shit) Well worth it
cost

Haha .. no power amp. Currently on an interface as Pro Tools, Logic Studio on ending for .. but does not change anything

SOUNDS

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>Curve frequency drives is it neutral enough?</span>
No. Overly flattering, and far from being neutral. Open and the hump in serious bump in the treble, in dsquilibre mediums.

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>Stereo image is good?</span>
Prcise Trs.

OVERALL OPINION

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>How long have you use it?</span>
One year.

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>What is the particular feature you like best and least?</span>
It is often said that any speaker can be used to mix, no matter the quality of time that connate well being. I will not judge the KRK Rokit RP-8 from this principle, but simply rely on it to explain my choices:

+
- The bump "serious" and bump "acute" are like those of a Sennheiser HD-25, although DCAL. By working in HD-25 headphones and speakers in parallle RP-8, it is equally difficult to have a whistle excs a voice roll in the end. Both of these monitoring tools are complementary.
- The phase of RP-8 is extremely sharp, may be a little too much, but it compensates for my imprcision the cost in terms of location and image strophonique.
- Finally, the opening in the lower to compensate for my tendency boost too.

-
- The Rokit sacrepche have one, too rewarding, which is particulirement dangerous mix of music.
- The dsquilibre in mediums requires a comparative exprience with the best instructors of references to not having a bad surprise.

<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>With the exprience, you do again this choice?</span>
With the same budget, yes. With a slightly larger budget, I would opt for KRK V8. And for still above, Dynaudio or Far. But the prices are totally comparable.

The Rokit RP-8 is an excellent compromise between price, the invoice (which is not of excellent quality finish compared to see those of V8, but it seems robust), performance, and use as monitors. For cons, I strongly deprecated trs her little sisters of lesser width (to catch the fireworks utiliss deficiency bass sound horribly wrong, my ear anyway).

Forget all de same pitch as the choice of monitor speakers is something absolutely personal. If I can not advise counsel, all I say is that the RP-8 Rokit have no hidden defect.

For the price they are really nice speakers, they're KRK's and they have a good reputation.

SOUNDS

Sound quality I would say an 8 on a 1 to 10 scale. solid speakers with a few minor flaws, like the RP8's tweeters tend to pop at higher volumes and the sub is a little tricky to set up. once your up and running they bang, they have a really crisp sound to them.

OVERALL OPINION

I used to be all about the Event 20/20's but I feel the RP's are a step up in that price range. I'm happy with the purchase.
