Q: 9. I am looking to order a few of these stands and I can't seem to figure out what extra accessories I would need to purchase to attach an umbrella and a hot shoe for an accessory flash (sb-910). Would the hot shoe attachment simply screw into the c-stand tip or is another part needed? Thanks in advance for the help!!

A: You need an umbrella swivel. See foolowing copy/paste I addedAn Umbrella SwivelBudget about $15. This is a small bracket that attaches to the top of the light stand and holds your flash (and an umbrella, usually) and will tilt to any angle. They are small, cheap and rugged. With one of these you can also mount a flash to any type of a standard, 5/8 post (like a photo clamp) if you are not using a stand.For this and the light stand above, I also recommend LumoPro models as they are inexpensive, well-made and guaranteed for five years. LP has built a great reputation as an off-camera lighting supplier, and for good reason..

Q: 10. Would a kupo 20" riser fit in the turtle base of this?

A: Yes. The following risers are swappable.

[<0.1%] With the move to working from home, I needed to upgrade my desk set up. I use these monitors for amateur mixing and voice work, as well as listening to music, watching movies, and video calls. I wanted a relatively flat, accurate reproduction, and these fit the bill nicely. One thing to note: They go into standby mode after about 30 mins, and start back up very quickly. This is great, as you can just leave them on all the time. A nice touch of detail.

[<0.1%] I was upgrading my home project studio and needed new monitors. So I did my online research and found that KRK Rockit 5 Gen 3 are the best (in that price point). Well they are no longer in production and the music stores were selling the new Gen 4's. I was going to buy the Gen 4's but after listening to a comparison of the Gen 4's vs Gen 3's on YouTube, I realized the Gen 3's were still the best. Then I found B&H had the new Classic 5's (the other stores don't) that are practically replicas of the Gen 3's so I bought them. The sound is absolutely AMAZING!!!

[29 lb] JBLs are great if you want lots of bass but the KRKs are good for accurate sound design

[29 lb] These should be on your list for consideration.

I've been using them for audio and video projects and very pleased with their sonic quality and accuracy. I've used KRKs in other editing rooms and always impressed with the sound. The price point along with B&H customer service are the main reasons why I made the purchase!

[Gold / Chrome] I wanted another set of monitors to use with an old set. My previous monitors are twenty plus years old, and I figure I'm tempting fate not having a backup set. They still sound great, but vintage monitors are not the same as vintage guitars...


I'll be honest, I was planning on buying the Kali's since I never liked the old KRK monitors, but for some reason couldn't pull the trigger. After the Kali sale ended I found this set which included the Mackie Big Knob for free (that I was also going to buy anyway). I took a chance and ordered them.


Shockingly I got them the next day even though I ordered them in the afternoon! I even had to check my invoice to make sure I didn't hit overnight by mistake, but it was standard ground shipping. The packing was excellent as well. That's not always my experience at B&H so kudos to them on that.



The KRKs have a load of tweaking options but are easy to fine tune from the back. The sound is far better than any soundclip I heard while researching them. They're not premium studio monitors, but they are much closer than the price suggests.


For me it's nice they are available in white since my old monitors are also white. KRK has definitely improved dramatically since I first tried them years ago. I hope they last as long as my old monitors.

[<0.1%] My first step into the world of pro monitors and these things sound fantastic! I've mainly been mixing with my Sennheiser HD650s and these feel like a worthy counterpart for my sessions. Still getting acquainted to the nuances of these but the sound that comes out them is terrific. Great bass response and clean mids and highs. At this price point, I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with these!

[ABS, MDF] I upgraded from some old Rokits 5 G2s to a pair of Rokit 8 G4s for some extra presence and bass, and these did not disappoint.

[ABS, MDF] I use it as monitor for my filmmaking job and I love it! Best quality at a reasonable price.

[100 dB] I needed to replace an old KRK to match a G3 that I already have... and thankfully I was still able to buy this. It appears to be identical to a G3 with a different name. I'm glad I didn't have to go with the G4s, as the EQ screen on that model is worthless to me. Very happy with my purchase.
