At KRK, our focus has always been to make the most accurate studio monitors
available at any price.
We do not offer PA gear, mixers, or motorcycles – just the tools you need to
deliver a great mix. From the legendary xposé Series, to VXT, to the new RoKit
Generation 2 series – we really know recording monitors.
We do not add sonic characteristics like some other manufacturers that make
their monitors appear to provide more SPL, or add low frequencies that demo
well in the store. No smoke and mirrors here. Just 100% pure KRK!
When you use a KRK monitor, you can be confident that your mixes will
translate well to the wide variety of playback conditions that can occur in the real
world. We want your audio mixes to sound good everywhere – not just in your
studio!
So enough about why we do the things we do. Let’s read the basics…

This allows you to use a variety of different connections - ranging from bare
copper wire to lugs to banana plugs. Any of these types of cable ends will make
a good connection, but banana plugs will allow for quick disconnect whenever
necessary and eliminate the problem of stray strands of copper between the
terminals. On the amplifier side, use whatever type of end fits your power
amplifier; typically bare wire, ¼" TS plugs, lugs, or banana plugs.
NNootteeUse unshielded cables to connect your amplifier to your speakers.
If you are not sure if you have unshielded cables, contact your local
music dealer to purchase the proper cabling.
Input (Right/Left), (+/-). Standard 5-way binding posts for accepting signal from
your power amplifier. The posts will accept wire-gauge sizes as large as 14
gauges. KRK recommends using 14 gauges for the best sonic response.
22..33AAmmpplliiffiieerr PPoowweerr RReeqquuiirreemmeennttss
KRK recommends using power amplifiers capable of producing 50 -100 RMS
watts per channel into 8 ohms. For best sonic results, a good rule of thumb is
to use an amplifier capable of producing more than 1½ times the recommended
power, rather than one that produces less than the recommended power. In fact,
more speakers are damaged due to under-powering than to over-powering. An
amplifier with insufficient power will create square waves when pushed beyond
the "comfortable" running range (potentially damaging the voice-coils).

The R6 monitors use 5-way binding posts to connect to your amplifier.

When hooking up passive (non-powered) speakers such as the R6 studio
monitors, you have several choices as to the proper type of cable. First, only use
heavy 14 to 18-gauge unshielded cables. Sonically, the heavier 14-gauge cable
is the best choice. Next, keep the speaker cable runs as short as possible. Just
measure the proper length, leaving a few extra feet for later adjustments and
easy access. Whenever possible, remember to use a heavy-gauge, unshielded
cable, especially for long (over 20 ft) runs.
Also, avoid light-gauge "zip cord.” Light-gauge cables of considerable length
not only rob amplifier power directly by turning it into heat, but they also reduce
the damping factor of your power amplifier, (which can cause inaccuracies in
the bass response of the speakers). Long cable runs can also introduce frequency
response irregularities into the monitor system, especially around the crossover
points where complex impedances exist.
CCaauuttiioonnBefore to start with the following “hookup procedure,” please
turn
Off the amplifier. Some amplifiers will self-destruct if their output
terminals are accidentally shorted together for even a few seconds.
If it is possible, use polarized speaker wire. This type of wire has one of the
conductors marked with a ridge, color stripe, or other identifier such as
copper- and white-colored conductors. This will allow you to easily hook up the
speakers with the proper polarity, (which is very important for proper stereo
imaging and bass response). Simply use the striped, ridged, red, or otherwise
polarity-marked lead of the cable to hook to the hot (red, + or positive)
terminal of the amplifier. Hook the other end of the cable to the red terminal on
the monitor cabinet. Repeat using the black (negative) terminal of the amplifier
being hooked to the black terminal of the speaker cabinet. Make sure there are
no stray strands of copper poking out that might short to the opposite terminal.

The close-field monitor, by definition, reduces room interaction. This can be
compared to the conventional stereo configuration or the large monitor
arrangement in a recording studio where sounds emanating from the monitor
or reflecting off ceilings, walls, and floors greatly affect the sound quality. By
shortening the path to the ear, the close-field monitor offers a tremendous
amount of flexibility, allowing the sound to become less susceptible to differing
room conditions. The ability to adjust the high frequency characteristics is equally
important to help compensate for room irregularities and achieve the best sound
accuracy.
A room that is heavily dampened would typically require a slight high frequency
boost. Likewise, reducing the high frequencies can alter a reverberant room.
Placing the monitor close to a rear wall, sidewall, or a corner will reinforce the
low frequencies. If you move them two to three feet away from walls and
corners, you will hear less low frequency interaction (excluding any interaction
with the mixing console).
33..22PPoossiittiioonniinngg yyoouurr MMoonniittoorrss
Positioning your monitors correctly in the studio is critical to their performance.
Typically, they should be placed so that the listening position is fully
“covered” with all monitors resting on the same horizontal plane. To test a
monitor for its imaging capability, playback a song that includes acoustic
instruments, to fully represent the entire sound spectrum.
You can adjust the angle of each monitor by listening for dead spots. Keep in
mind, changing the angle or position of a monitor will change the way that you
perceive your music. So lets analyze the following monitors’ configurations;

•
Near-Field Configuration – In a control room situation, the monitors are often
times placed on the meter bridge or in a close-field listening position. Initial
placement starts by measuring out a simple equilateral triangle (all three sides
equal in length) with the apex at the center of the listening position as an
“overlay” for the stereo installation. In this configuration, the Left and Right
monitors are each placed at a 60° angle, equidistant from the listening position.
(Figure 3)
Figure 3
Figure 3.1
• Mid-Field Configuration – This configuration is similar to the close-field
configuration. It is normally used with larger monitors, or when the monitors
are too large or heavy for the meter bridge. This setup has the potential for a
larger sweet spot and better spatial imaging. Make sure that the height of the
woofer is above the height of the console. (Figure 3.1)

33..22..22SSuubbwwooooffeerr SSeettuupp
Note that KRK subwoofers are optimized for use with KRK full range monitors.
Begin by determining the best location for your subwoofer. The optimum setup
is displayed in Figure 3.2. However, this setup may not be practical or possible
in your room. Once you have set up your monitors, listen to program material
that you know contains low frequency information. If your subwoofer has a
phase switch, adjust the subwoofer to provide the highest frequency setting
possible. Flip the switch back and forth to find the loudest setting. Then adjust
the sub’s low pass filter so that it works in conjunction with the satellite’s high
pass frequencies. When you have finished, readjust the level of the sub.
33..22..3355..11 CChhaannnneell SSuurrrroouunndd SSeettuupp
Begin by placing the Left and Right front channels 30 degrees from the Center
channel and equidistant to the listening position. The Left Surround (rear) and
Right Surround (rear) channels should be placed 110 degrees from the Center
channel. Their location should also be equidistant from the listening position. The
subwoofer (Low Frequency ffects) channel is most effective when situated
directly below the Center channel. If this is not possible, place the subwoofer just
to the right or left side and below the Center channel. nsure that the woofers
are above the height of the console. (Figure 3.3)

• If one of the monitors is working. xchange the cable (coming from the
amp) from the nonworking monitor to the working unit. This will
determine whether it is the monitor, a faulty cable, the amplifier, or some
other glitch in the audio chain.
• If the monitor is still not responding, please contact KRK Customer Service.

• Play some non-distorted source material at a low volume. Carefully cover
the tweeter (to block the sound) without touching the diaphragm. Is the woofer
producing a clean sound? If there is not a clear tonal quality or any sound
at all then the woofer probably needs to be replaced.
• Cover the woofer so you can hear mostly the tweeter. Is the tweeter
producing a clear sound? If there is not a clear tonal quality or any sound
at all then the tweeter probably needs to be replaced.

KRK recomienda usar amplificadores de potencia capaces de generar 50 a
100 vatios (RMS) por canal en 8 ohmios. Para obtener los mejores resultados
sónicos, una buena regla práctica es usar un amplificador capaz de generar

genere menos de la potencia recomendada. De hecho, los altavoces se dañan
más a menudo debido a la potencia demasiado baja que a la demasiado alta.
