KRK Systems has announced new Generation 3 ROKIT monitors to join the existing G3 models already launched. The ROKIT 10-3 G3 is a three-way powered monitor, while the ROKIT 4 G3 is a compact powered monitor.

KRK says that the ROKIT 10-3 Generation 3, three-way powered monitor is designed to fill even the biggest studio control room, post-production suite, or mastering facility with rich, detailed sound. They tell us that the ROKIT 10-3 includes all the acclaimed features of KRK's ROKIT Generation 3 series of speakers, as well as new voicing technology based on feedback from recording professionals. Here's KRK's description:

The 10" woofer is made of lightweight, glass-Aramid composite material to preserve transient response and retain clarity while delivering bass extension down to 25 Hz. The 4" midrange driver accounts for the detailed mids, while the 1" soft-dome tweeter ensures accuracy by offering high-frequency response up to 30 kHz. Each is driven by an analog, Class A/B amplifier with a total power rating of 148 watts for plenty of headroom and the ability to produce up to 110 dB SPL. Balanced XLR, TRS, and unbalanced RCA jacks provide universal connectivity, while high- and low-frequency trims accommodate personal listening tastes or tweak the overall response to match particular room acoustics.

Gibson Pro Audio Senior Product Marketing Manager Andrew Beard states, "What makes the ROKIT 10-3 G3 unique is that it provides midfield features and performance at a nearfield monitor price, and incorporates the refinements that have made the Generation 3 ROKIT line so popular. With the 10-3, KRK has answered the needs of professionals who want speakers that don't just sound good, but sound right."



KRK believes that the ROKIT 4 G3 powered studio monitors (above) are ideal for musicians on the go, desktop audio, tight spaces, and mobile setups. They say that these tiny titans translate the power, quality, and performance of KRK's larger monitors into a compact, portable format. This is how KRK describes them...

The ROKIT 4 G3 offers the accurate, tight bass extension for which KRKs are famous. The 4" woofer features glass-Aramid composite material, which preserves transient response yet moves plenty of air to create satisfying bass. The 1" soft-dome tweeter reproduces highs smoothly up to 35 kHz, without the harshness found in some other speakers. Each speaker has its own analog, Class A/B amplifier, and incorporates superior cabinet design.  As with all Generation 3 ROKIT studio monitors, the ROKIT 4 has both high and low-frequency level controls along with balanced XLR, TRS, and unbalanced RCA inputs.  This all adds up to a flexible studio monitor with accurate, defined sound--the proof is how faithfully music mixed on KRK speakers translates when played over other systems.

According to Gibson Pro Audio Senior Product Marketing Manager Andrew Beard, "Music professionals have asked us to make a quality, compact studio monitor that could easily be taken anywhere. Our answer is the new ROKIT 4, which has everything that makes the ROKIT series great--just smaller. This series also has color options with the mobile and home studio in mind: original black, white, and silver."
