You don't know what you're missing!!
I bought 2. They don't sound good, they sound perfect. Outstanding imaging, like wearing really good headphones. The headroom is amazing....and so far the've kicked a## on everything I've thrown at them. Hip hop, rock, alt rock, classical. I'll be getting a sub to mix down hip hop beats, but i don't think it would be necessary for most music. They aren't warm and fuzzy speakers. They reproduce sound the way it was originally mixed and allow you to make great mix downs.
Thank you for your feedback

My first 'real' speakers!

Whenever I need to buy something (e.g., speakers, but anything, everything) I usually do a lot of research before I commit to buying one (brand or unit) over the other...

This time, (and in this price range) it eventually came down to a tossup between the Yamaha HS5s ($250 CAD each) and the KRK Rockit 5s ($210 CAD each).

I was going to get the Yamaha HS5s BUT my setup would have them right up against a wall and the HS5s have rear bass ports... Whereas the Rockit 5s have front-ported bass ports.

After I ordered the KRKs, and they were on the way, I found another video of someone doing a wonderful job at comparing these very two speakers.

At first, though, I thought it may have been a stupid joke, or something, because, for the first half of the video, when he would switch between the speakers, I could not distinguish ANY difference in the sound or the sound quality, whatsoever. By the end of the video, however, I WAS... and the KRKs came out on top! The HS5s did not have enough bass (for my liking).

The KRKs came... WOW!!!

Extremely impressed and pleased with these speakers!

Both the build quality and sound quality are excellent.

The volume knob on the speaker has about 40 physical 'notches' which are marked from -30dB to +6dB... and with the audio signals "gain staged" going into these speakers 5 notches from the bottom was LOUD listening (for this 13' x 15' room)!

Awesome speakers!
