Entering the space where IK Multimedia has had great success with its iLoud range, KRK has just launched the new KRK GoAux 3 & 4 speakers, portable studio-style monitors that have EQ, room tuning, isolating rubber bases, and convenient carry cases.
The three-inch GoAux 3 and four-inch GoAux 4 are “professional-quality monitors with a portable design”. They feature Bluetooth allowing users to connect wirelessly to smartphones, computers etc, and also feature standard 1/8-inch Aux and RCA stereo inputs.
Users can also adjust their monitors’ response to the room and personal preference thanks to built-in LF and HF EQ. The added option of connecting headphones to the front panel 1/8-inch stereo output automatically mutes the GoAux speakers for a silent monitoring option.
“With KRK GoAux speakers, glass aramid woofers work alongside a one-inch soft textile dome tweeter in a bi-amplified two-way design, while durable rear-ported ABS cabinets supply an impressive bass extension.” says the company.
Similar to some of the IK Multimedia portable speakers, with the GoAux 4 users get a measurement microphone and built-in Auto ARC (automatic room correction). This allows for automatic optimisation of the speakers’ response to the acoustic environment. The GoAux 4 also offers additional USB and 1/4-inch TRS balanced stereo inputs.
