KRK has introduced the Kreate Series – two-way studio monitors designed to provide creatives with the tools necessary to work with clarity and accuracy.
As the brand’s newest studio monitor line, the KRK Kreate Series supports a wide range of setups and needs, including mixing, producing, and content creation. The new monitors have wireless audio streaming capabilities with a pairable Bluetooth audio input, alongside balanced and unbalanced analogue inputs for flexible connectivity. The monitors also have a universal voltage, switch mode power supply for global operations.
Available in three sizes, these entry-level active, two-way studio reference monitors feature a wide bandwidth, boundary and tuning EQs, new transducer designs, and Class D amplification. The Kreate Series also features useful acoustic boundary correction and tuning EQ combinations to help minimise and correct acoustic environment problems and dial in the voicing to meet specific application needs.
“The Kreate Series offers professional-grade sound and flexible functionality that empowers emerging artists, producers, podcasters, and all creators to embrace high-quality audio at an affordable price point,” said Sterling Doak, senior director of marketing for Gibson. “The monitors fill a vital space in the KRK lineup and are ideal for those who demand quality without compromise. As the new introductory solution within the portfolio, the Kreate Series will enable users to begin their creative journey with confidence.”
With KRK Kreate, composite woven glass fibre cone woofers provide damping and deeper modal control to deliver punchy mid and low-frequency response. The structure is heat-resistant and features a high strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring the monitors are highly adaptable and sonically accurate.
Additionally, high-frequency reproduction emanates from a carefully designed woven-textile dome tweeter with a neodymium motor, which accurately extends the frequency range out to 40kHz in the KRK Kreate 8 and 5 options, and up to 33 kHz in the 3 option.
Furthermore, the system-tuning level control and low-frequency and high-frequency shelving filters allow for easy adjustment in various acoustic conditions, and hybrid Class D and Class AB amplification delivers power and headroom with excellent dynamics reproduction.
The monitors are available in KRK’s signature black/yellow style, as well as a latte/black colour scheme (arriving this fall), with the Kreate 3 models sold as a pair and the Kreate 5 and Kreate 8 options priced individually.
