KRK Systems RoKit Personal Shielded Monitor

July 11, 1997 -- Huntington Beach, California - KRK Systems, Inc. announces the launch of the new RoKit Personal Shielded Monitor.

The RoKit is a passive, two-way, shielded personal studio monitor featuring a 6 1/2" polyvinyl proprietary long-stroke woofer, as well as a 1" silk-dome tweeter. The monitor provides 75 watts of power, with a frequency response of 69 Hz - l9kHz (+/- 3 dB). The RoKit has a crossover point of 1.5 kHz and sensitivity of 91 dB (1 watt @ 1 meter). Maximum SPL is measured at 104 dB with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms.

The RoKit measures 12.5" (H) x 10.5" (W) x 8" (D) and comes with the same custom gray texture cabinet finish found with the K-RoK personal studio monitor.

According to Keith Klawitter, President of KRK Systems, Inc., the development of the new RoKit results partly from the success of the K-RoK monitor. "In the past, everyone wanted the quality of KRK," says Klawitter, "but driver technology simply did not make it possible to provide such quality at a price considered reasonable to the first time buyer. Now, after having worked for years on the new driver design, developments have allowed us to lower the cost, while providing the same quality and driver technology to the first time buyer in the musical instrument market."

RoKits retail at $ 329.00 per pair.
