KRK RP-5 ... Rokit powered series monitors feature a signature yellow woofer made of a woven glass aramid composite that delivers a tight low-end response and a soft dome tweeter for natural sounding highs. The drivers are electronically crossed over and are bi-amplified for increased efficiency. All of this is housed in an attractive cabinet with radiused corners that reduce edge diffraction resulting in better audio imaging. The rear input panel features phono plug and xlr connectors to accommodate any application and give the best sound you're likely to hear.

... back of the speakers to adjust the high end, so you can get the sound that you are comfortable with. They also have a gain control, which is used to change the speakers volume. The KRK's feature many different input options, - an unbalanced RCA - a balanced TRS or jack - and an XLR. The 5 in RP-5 literally stands for the Diameter of the woofer.
