Frequently Asked Questions

The Classics aim for a flatter, more neutral response than the Rokits, which were known for a more colored sound. The Classics are a good upgrade if you want more accuracy.
No, while decent, the plastic enclosure and amplifier limitations mean they're better suited for production and mixing, not the final critical mastering stage.
Absolutely. They decouple the monitors from your desk, reducing vibrations and improving low-frequency clarity, which is especially helpful in less-than-ideal acoustic spaces.
