The new finish looks great, but it's the classic KRK sound quality that'll keep you coming back.
KRK has introduced a new Latte finish for its Kreate Series studio monitors, offering a fresh alternative to the brand’s signature black and yellow aesthetic. Available exclusively on the five-inch model, this midcentury modern look brings some visual warmth to your studio without sacrificing the performance KRK’s known for.

The Kreate Series – available in three-inch, five-inch and eight-inch sizes – is aimed squarely at emerging producers, podcasters and content creators who need reliable monitoring without spending a fortune. All models feature Bluetooth connectivity alongside balanced and unbalanced analogue inputs, so they’re flexible enough for everything from everyday listening to mixing work.
Under the hood, a composite woven glass fibre cone woofer delivers tight, punchy low-end response, whilst a carefully engineered woven-textile dome tweeter with neodymium motor extends the frequency range up to 40 kHz. The combination provides a surprisingly detailed soundstage that punches well above the price point.
Practical features include acoustic boundary correction and tuning EQ to help tame problem rooms, system-tuning level controls, and low and high-frequency shelving filters for dialling in your preferred voicing. Hybrid Class D and Class AB amplification provides plenty of headroom while keeping operating temperatures in check during longer sessions.
The heat-resistant glass fibre woofer structure features a high strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring sonic accuracy whether you’re tracking vocals or just enjoying your favourite albums. Universal voltage and switch-mode power supply mean the Kreate 5 will work anywhere in the world without fuss.
They look good, they sound good, and they won’t break the budget.
