This thing looks like a BEAST. I currently have the 10 version and even that thing is a beast. However, I owned the older 12" and compared to the new 10" its clear the 10" can't produce those lower notes like the 12". It is loud and impressive sounding tho on the notes that it can play well. But, I'd opt for the 12" it's just better.
I have had to return 2 of these in 2 weeks so far. The output to the monitors keep failing at NORMAL volume. Waiting on the 3rd to arrive. Maybe 3rd time is a charm.
3rd one works as long as I run it on a separate output from the monitors. Got a Mackie Big Knob interface and the 8's are on A and the 12 is on B. @@Sk8er4life49
10 or 12? I just got the classic 8's theyve really grown on me, I've had to break them in for the day, but they are awesome, have to get the volume up to get the cabinet to sing though.
Hi, do you think that for an apartment this might be to much, overwhelming? Don't want my neighbors to hate me lol. I have a pair of KRK Rokit G4 8" and I'm looking for a sub from KRK, but I read some reviews that the S10.4 might be powerful enough for my needs. I thought that 12 would be ideal because I have the G4 8's, but considering it's huge size and weight, I may go for the S10.4. Since you tried it, do you think the S10.4 is also a game changer when mixed with a pair Rokits G4 8 inches?
I'd go the 10.4 of you live in an apartment. I bought the 10.4 to go with my KRK Classic 5's, and I have a 3 bedroom house, and it's insanely loud. You could almost go the 8.4. In saying that, your neighbours aren't going to like you regardless of what sub you get. Lol
Great for both but dont take the classic line for the topspeakers. They have a cheaper tweeter. I have the krk7's with digital screen in the back. They have a better tweeter. Very clear sound and lots of detail. Also voices are very clear. Next week im going to get a subwoofer to boost the low.(they realy need that)
Better to measure the frequency response of your 8 inch monitor as it is room dependent, then based on the measurement you can determine the cx frequency and volume
I am looking to buy it but is this the all i need !! i want to hook it up with krk classic 7 :D.....................the best speaker's box is made from think MDF , you should have seen the krk monitor the MDF is so think than lets say for example my old logitech z906 sub
Thanks for this video! I just went to Guitar Center here in Las Vegas NV and purchased "two" of these 10.4 KrK monitors and I love them for my album recording/songwriting studio. Here is where I also write my movie scripts. I also desire to produce film scores so composing & arranging my musical compositions using "Spitfire Audio's" ALBION ONE, ABBEY ROAD SYMPHONY & BBC SYMPHONIC Libraries will be a wonderful experience using my new 10.4. Believe me this is my first set of subwoofers. I am blown away, and I wanted to be blown away. These give me the encouragement to create my tunes as never before. I do have lower end near fields. The M-Audio BX5. I will be purchasing Barefoot Footprint 01 pair of monitors mix my musical projects soon and donate my BX5 to a start up Black Owned Media/radio company.
Yes sir! Ive got 2 krk 10.4 subs for my recording studio. Im donating my BX5 MAudio to a startup African Owned Media Company. I plan on purchasing 4 barefoot 01 monitors.
I have the 10 and it’s a masterpiece.

You deserve more subs mate… both… subwoofer and subscribers hahaha
Haha! Thanks man, we’re working on it! YT is a grind man! 🤙🤙🤙

Your neighbors will definitely not be a fan. I had little jbl control 1 speakers, and they even hated these! Good luck! 😁
How is this for a 2.1ch setup for music and home theatre

Great review. What does he mean by classic eights? Is this another subwoofer from the KRK range?
He meant krk's classic 8(inch) studio monitors, so not subwoofers
@@RuthlessMonk666 thanks
Krk 12 inch sub and 8 inch studio monitors... what crossover should I do??

Thanks for the vid. A test of the linearity across frequency spectrum would have been nice!
Could u do a next review an it an sound test ??
Hey man thanks for the review. Was gonna go for Focal sub one but after I watched this clip I decided on a Krk s12.4.
Have you tried the s10.4 ? I'm debating between the two.
Haven’t tried the s10.4, live in an apartment so haven’t taken the s12.4 to it’s limits yet. There are many other more expensive options.
Hi. Thank you for your insight. I need to connect a 12HO sub to to the LFE OUT from an AVR receiver. Do you know how? Thank you!!
Can’t decide on this or the Mackie thump powered sub
@@N0ggie so I ended up buying a jbl 715 . Sounds good for my e-drums!!
Please do more subwoofer videos
Thanks for the review
guess 8,10 or 12" ?
What crossover number for 12 inch with 8 inch monitors?
80hz usually

front ports are worst for sound quality.
