Thank you all for watching. These could possibly be the best budget studio monitors for music production. The KRK Rokit 8 G4 are definitely a force. Check them out here: imp.i114863.net/jWoqm0
great review.thanks.that song sounds great too.huge mix with a really good vocal that jumps out at you.
I got mine last winter and I really like them. They still sound new and look brand new. I want more power though so I will be buying the ADAM Audio A8H-R in January. I have gotten 90% of my gear because of your videos.
Love the bass but also full range for synths. Did have a problem with one but was able to repair it thanks to generous youtubers.
I liked your song, your voice is great, i liked the bounce, I listened to this on a laptop yet the bass was pumping, nice work!
I purchased my 1st monitors last year which is the KRK Rokit 5 G4, and I love it! I might pair a KRK sub to get that sub frequencies
Once again Brorher, Thank You!
would love a mix breakdown for your song. sounded very clean and full
The thing that makes krk so great is that they last a really long time and can take a beating. They can also be great for house parties. Their subs are hella powerful, and are concert worthy. I know a lot of world famous DJs use krks in the tour busses for after parties.
Yes, I totally agree. Yep. I would trade them for the world. They get the job done and last while doing it! 🙌🏾
@@archiebeatz And for the price. 🤟
oh man - u awesome - thank u 4 review! love u!
I had KRK 5's for about 10 years, never let me down. I also had the 10S sub. One day lightning hit the house and everything blew. I went with yamaha to switch it up and I can't lie I miss the KRK setup. Probably will switch back
Hey Archie Beatz, how’s it going? Great video and track👍🏾 Am especially liking the low end of the track and vocal sound. Also did you ever get your hands on the Kh750 to compliment the KH80’s? I am still happy with the KH80’s and NDH20 headphones and the sub seems like the next move. Or are you using another sub?
That song mix🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯 everything massaddoooo
Yo man, my studio monitor are the first krk monitor you had! They are great and I work with them for about 4 years. Bought them used and still banging!
Hahahahha, yeah man. That's what I'm talking about! 😂😂😂🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I like the mix of the song, everything sounds alive.
Reminds me of Juice Wrld - Red Dead Redemption atmospherically…It just sounds alive
Own a pair myself. They sound incredible! I also managed to find covers for them as the faces pull off. 🙂 Saves my children prodding with their fingers. 😅
Song is fired creative hook name bravo. I just got the krk 8 g4 they are huge man 😅
that track was dope Archie! My rockit 5 gen 1 are still going strong but im eyeing this upgrade. Some people have reported a hiss sound.....Have you experienced any of that?
Thank you
thanks for great content..
what do I need to use these with Akai force? ... I'm new to studio setup
Hey bro. I have had my "krk rokit 6" monitors (classic model) for over 10 years now. Have they become outdated by now? Would it make sense for me to update and buy the new G-series or are they basically the same as the ones already got?
Curious to know how the KRK Rokit 8 G4 will compare to the Adam Audio A7V 😁
KRK Rokit 5 g4 and i lvoe my ones :)
Your mx is very professional, but I need my own reference material to judge speakers, monitors, amps, preamps, DACs, source players.
@Archie Beatz, Could you review the Kali Audio monitors?
a lot of reviews mention something about an idle hiss, did you also notice that and is there ways to make it less noticeable
The song sounds good
No one is talking About the Song Bro I love The Song💗❤️🔥
Thank you so much.
The mix sounds nice and clear, but lacked a bit of punch on the low end. Was that by design?
im just about to get into hifi audio, seen these recommended a few times, i think im gonna go with the 7s and a 10.4 sub
How did that turn out? I just got the 7’s & im thinking of adding a sub
Well, they are good, much better than the gen 3, but their 7 and 8 inches monitors makes a very noticible hiss noise. I went to hear them on the store and was amazed that I could hear the hiss from more than one meter away from the monitors. I don't understand how they released them as nearfield monitors like this...
I used to use the KRK Rokit monitors and for just listening to music they sound real good and people who heard them liked them, but when I start work again recording I had to get rid of them because of all that hyped low end the Rokit series monitors have. I went to flatter sounding monitors for working.
I see. You definitely have to learn the Rokits and get use to them with the low end. I love them for production but I push my mixes through flatter monitors. I may check back with them during the mixing process because I know them.
i bought these a while back and expected a lot after loving the g3, but the monitor hiss was so loud i could hear it through the music, had to return them, and decided to go a tier higher with monitors and went with the adam a8h's
yea the hiss on these are louddd i sold mines today
Could you do a video on the Presonus eris e8xt?
Bit of a lol that the EQ stuff is at the back, where you cannot see it...
I just picked up the 5s but also want to get the Yamaha hS8s
Any word on what the krk 12in subwoofer sounds like paired with these? Thanks
Can i listening music with it, or only for monitoring?
are these speakers also good just for listening music connect to laptop or phone ? I just want something for listening bud good quality I am not a producer or musician. Can someone give me an answer. Thanks
Which have better bass response? jbl 308, kali audio in 8 or krk rokit 8?
I felt there was a little too much high end in the mix. Only thing my ears didn't like.
Wow they came a long way, never was my first pick, too tubby for me, I'm old enough to remember these being the "first hip hop monitors” but that high frequency thing is what i didn't like about the Yamahas either so that kinda threw me off when listening.
Presouns is what gave me my first ten years. One didn't come on one day.
I actually got some fives i got from my friend. I can work with them if necessary
But i also saw one catch fire in a studio session and had to put it out more than ten years ago.
These look tempting. I wish the screen wasn't on the back of the monitor wasting away like that
Lp-6 I'm good. They edged out my first pair by a lot
I dont understand what these are for got these two years ago and now im looking to upgrade only finding out about the krk v8s for mixing and mastering and full range rokit 10s. The 8s are amazing for djing and creating music but translate so bad especially without sub.. are these just speakers? Gutted i never got the 10s or v8s first
I might just kop some
Nice monitor
They are definitely great music production tools man.
are these active with amp?
Hi, the composition is great. The melody and your voice are very compelling but hidden. The bass is slightly exaggerated. I attribute to the acoustics. Book an hour in an established studio, go with mix and your pair of speakers. See the difference. Like you said get to really know your speakers and your room. Continued success.
"Three Big Letters... KRK, What more can be said?... I'll wait"
Just got these to replace my rokit 5s. I also have my Krk 10.4 in. Sub. The power behind it is ridiculous.
Hahahahahaha! Nice. I know you are loving that.
I use KRK since G1. Now i'm on the KRK RP6 G3 and the KRK Sub 12S. In combination with the Yamaha HS80. Should i switch to G4 ? I think no, because i love the G3.
The mid range on the KRK is true.. Unlike the older generations which have more of a masked low mids due to overhyped bass
G4 8 inch should be your go to.
@@eyramgbewonyo3968 Thx. Maybe I'll listen to them when I'm next in our music store. It can't do any harm and they're also attractively priced.
I'm very happy with the G3. In cooperation with my Yamaha HS 80 it also works quite well.
@@atarifalcon sounds good. Also makes sense having these 2 already. Would definitely be good when you're trying to reference mixes and get an overall balanced sound
I've got a pair of M-Audio CX8 not trading those in for anything.
You said they were your first monitors so what do you use now. I have an old pair of Rokit 8 speakers and one stopped working. I remember the first time i listened to them i didnt like them. I thought the bass was to woomy. But then i got used to them and started liking them. But now that i am going to buy a new pair of monitors i have been trying to decide if i want to buy the same but the new generation. Or buy some other brand like maybe Yamaha. Or something else. Where i live i cant listen to them before buying them. I will just order them online. So i am watching youtube reviews. But its hard to judge a speaker when you are listening on a computer speaker. And most videos are bias and bought and paid for. Any advice or opinion ?
My main monitors now in my home studio are the Focal Trio6 and Fluid Audio Image 2 for my B monitors. I have my Rokit 8 and V8 setup in an extra room in my house for production. Yeah, when you lock into them and get use to them you get great results. I totally understand. To be honest, studio monitors are one of the most difficult things to display sonically in the TH-cam world. There are videos that show monitor measurements and results but these are normally done in rooms that are nothing psychologically like the viewers studios. My suggestions is to go to your local audio retailer and listen to some monitors in the pro audio department. Then make sure you properly set your room up... At least putting up some panels and capturing your first reflections. I hope this helps Jonathan.
Hey yall , what are some good monitors to buy if you’re trying to save money?These are too expensive for my pocket
My 5s just died think I'ma cop a pair of deeze yo
The are great but you can't use the app on a samsing galaxy s23
Hello, I bought rokits 8ki. The room is 20 squares, not acoustically prepared (no bass traps, diffusers, etc.) There are tiles on the floor, a bed, a wardrobe and a bedside table made of furniture. Also, a large window almost the entire wall looks out onto the balcony, the speakers are 2 meters from the wall. The problem is that there is no pressure in the sub bass 39-42Hz. Just silence from the speakers, but the speaker is moving. Is this a room or speaker issue?
P.S. I write bass music, and in principle I can monitor the middle with the top in headphones. I bought monitors to monitor sub bass and bass. I end up frustrated
KRK have a lot od bass. Your room is a problem or speakers setup.
I prefer the Adam t series
hello, the KRK R8 are good but there is a big problem: a constant hissing noise even when the XLR cables are not connected. It's really annoying and incomprehensible. There is nothing you can do, no device can take away this breath. You can reduce the db a bit to -10db but that doesn't fix a problem. It's in the low-end design and components. I was fooled, few people talk about this problem.
Hiss is normal in all monitors. A lot of that has to do with electrical ground in your home or studio. If it's a hiss you have to pit your ear close to hear, then is normal. If you turn it on island is CRAZY hiss and you can absolutely tell right away, your unit might be defective, or your cables might be defective. Mine have that quiet hiss sound. You can only hear it when you lr ear is right on the tweeter. This is normal.
say bro you should check out my guy Miami Moe 305 he's looking for a singer for a hook
The hiss noise on this monitors are horrible super loud you can't work with them unless you turn them off
Fwiw your track sounds very commercial big studio produced to radio play quality. You’re prob a ghost producer I guess lol
Same chord progression as "take it to the head" - DJ Khaled, Chris Brown
KRK's are not flat.
Yamaha HS8 is king.
monitors do not need to be flat to produce or mix on. You just have to understand the balance of your monitor, of which the bakance on these is adjustable. Use reference tracks...understand how your monitor produces sound. ...and understand your room, as the same speaker can sound completely different in a different room. some of the most famous mix engineers have used $10 computer speakers to mix on.
They are great for recreational listening, NOT making music. Low ends are boosted in these and don’t give you a true representation of what you’re mixing. These are the Beats by Dre of monitors.
Nope
Maybe if you suck at mixing but I've made a pretty successful career out of them !
@@Kelo-bu4nr anyone can learn any monitoring system and the room they’re in. It’s all subjective, however these do not have a flat response if that’s what someone is looking for
