KRK Kreate 3 Studio Monitor Pair

KRK Kreate 3 Studio Monitor Pair – compact active monitors with classic KRK accuracy

The KRK Kreate 3 delivers the legendary KRK studio sound in a compact and affordable format. These two-way active monitors are designed for musicians, producers, and creators who need precise and reliable sound reproduction in small to medium-sized rooms. Combining KRK’s engineering expertise with modern design, the Kreate Series offers clear tonal balance, fast transient response, and long-term durability—ideal for mixing, content creation, and playback.

Overview and Features

The left speaker houses the amplifier and powers both units for a balanced stereo image. The custom-designed woven glass-fiber woofer delivers tight low-end with controlled breakup, while the ¾-inch textile dome tweeter with a neodymium magnet extends the frequency response up to 33 kHz. Class D amplifiers drive the transducers efficiently, providing high dynamic headroom and consistent performance during long sessions.

Acoustic Tuning

Each monitor features boundary and EQ tuning controls, allowing you to adapt the frequency response to your room and setup. Whether placed on a desktop or in a small studio, the acoustic adjustments ensure a balanced mix environment. The PVC-laminated MDF cabinet with a reinforced HIPS front baffle adds rigidity and minimizes resonance.
