Hi,
I am reviewing these monitors because I made a New Year’s Resolution to review more products that I buy. It’s the first thing I look for after the specifications meet my requirements. Without reviews, I would be lost in making a purchase.
Anyway, here goes with hopefully the first of many reviews!!!
The KRK Kreate 8 are an excellent choice. My kit is all synths and I have blown so many monitors over the years with heavy bass centric patches. These guys are perfect for a heavy synth bass line.
Straight out of the box they are a great looking monitor/speaker. The yellow on the speaker rim just cheers up a room compared to the usual drab all black I have always had.
I am giving 5 stars to these monitors for sound, ease of use, appearance, documentation etc. And, the only complaint I have is that they have highlighted the inadequacy of the mixer/amplifier I use to power them. So that will be my next purchase once the bank allows me to spend again.
4 years ago due to chemotherapy treatment I lost the ability to hear certain frequencies. So I got a wonderful surprise when for the first time in 4 years I have been able to hear the closed high hat on my drum machine. That alone justifies 5 stars for me. Hopefully this review helps my fellow shoppers like all the reviews I have read over the years.
