Up for grabs are my 1 st generation KRK RP6 Rokit active 2-way studio monitors that have had little use over the years so are in excellent condition,and in need of a more worthy home. I no longer have the original boxes due to a house move but these really have been well looked after and include the original manual, and also included are some heavy duty Quik Lok monitorstands. The auction is for the speakers and the stands, but no cables as these are now inuse elsewhere. Please shout with any questions – the original KRK product blurb and specs are below as well. Collection only from West London. Cheers & ! Precision-matched components The RP6 Is an active, bi-amped monitor with 50 Watts for the woofer, 18 Watts for the tweeter, and an integrated 2.6 kHz electronic crossover. Unlike passive monitors, KRK specially matches the power section, electronics, and output d rivers for streamlined performance. You can be sure all frequencies from 49 Hz to 20 kHz are sent to the most capable speaker, with enough power to provide plenty of volume without distortion. The cleaner and more precise the monitor output, the tighter your mixes will be. You won't believe the details you've been missing, once you hear your music through Rokit monitors. Quality drivers for full-range performance While many speaker manufacturers use a cheaper polypropylene material for their drivers, KRK's six-inch woofer is made with a proprietary glass-aramid composite, woven in their signature yellow colour. Similar to Kevlar, this speaker delivers tight, articulate bass response with a surprising amount of feel for such a small size. The one-inch soft-dome tweeter offers natural,balanced high-frequency reproduction for clean tone and reduced ear-fatigue during long mixing sessions. Where other other bookshelf monitors tend to be thin and midrange-focused, the RP6 pushes the full frequency range, emphasizing subtle dynamic expression that might otherwise get lost in the mix. When other project studios are turning-out Toyotas, You'll be delivering Ferraris. Improved cabinet for better sound Every component in an RP-series monitor is designed with your music in mind. Even the cabinet helps improve your mix. Most monitor enclosures are little more than rectangular boxes with sharp corners. These squared-off edges tend to diffract,or spread out, audio waves as they pass through. This leads to an overall muddying of the mix and an unfocused stereo image. Since the essence of a good mix is the ability to balance each sonic element in its own space through the stereo field, you can see how diffraction can be a problem. The RP6 has rounded corners to reduce edge diffraction, clean up the stereo image, and enhance the"sweet spot" where you most accurately hear the mix. When you hear everything, you can polish the little details that transform a good mix into a great one. Slotted bass ports As with any small-footprint monitor, bass ports are essential to a big, full sound. These ports let the lower frequencies travel outside the enclosure to develop naturally throughout the room. Traditional bass ports are round, which tend to trap some of these frequencies. The lows bounce off of each other inside the port, causing distortion as they leave the cabinet. KRK uses a slotted port design at the bottom of RP monitors to drastically reduce distortion and deliver rich, focused low end. Again, the more accurate your monitors, the better your mix. Versatile connection options Regardless of your audio environment, RP6's will fit right in. The back panel features XLR and 1/4-inch balanced TRS inputs along with unbalanced RCA connections. Hook them up to a computer production studio, standalone recording workstation, or mobile DJ rig for pristine playback. The speaker drivers are magnetically shielded to protect sensitive CRT monitors and hard drives from damage. No matter how big or small your studio, Rokit RP6's help you achieve the professional-quality results you... read more
