No they don't. I'de go for the RP6s though, a little louder, and better in the bass department (but the RP8 is the best, has a little TOO much bass). I've heard the V6-IIs, they sound the best of all of them, but they cost a little more (you can get a pair for approx $650 at GC if you bargain with them, I tried one time, but I didn't have the $$ at the time).

im going for the RP6, thats my budget. but when it says the price is $199.99, is that for 1 speaker or 2 ?

Just for one, they don't sell them as pairs like M-Audio does. But you can get pair deals i'm sure online. Yeah they are less expensive too, but I really like the V6-IIs, they sound so crisp. I may eventually want to get into producing in the future...or doing like remix work but i'm still trying to tackle mixing, esp mixing other stuff besides trance (which i'm used to mixing).

1 speaker of KRK RP8 VS. 2 speakers of KRK V4


what would you guys go for ?

like i said before, i think V4s are underrated.... have u listened to the 2 pairs yet? i heard the v4s and they sounded crispy clean.... for my personal pref i feel that clean mids are just as if not more important than the bass which is y i got a pair of the V6-IIs instead of the the RP8s.

i guess its all up to personal pref... i personally felt that this pair of monitors would last me a very long time so i saved a little longer and got a nicer pair than what i was thinking of before i tested them out.

i bargained with GC, got the pair for around $600 i think (w/ taxes i think it came to less than $650 and the guy threw in a pair of isolation pads). keep an eye out for deals at GC like when they have for example 1 year no interest as long as u pay it off before the year is up

I don't know. I saw someone do one and he left it natural wood grain and it looked uber sexay! Bill was like ohhh ahhhh damn I want one like that.

Plus they slam the hell out of anything in the price range.

Do the Rokit speakers come with any cables? I would probably prefer to have them hooked up with XLR cables.
