Key Features

• Available in Three Sizes
  Choose from 3.5", 5", or 8" models depending on your space and sound requirements. The Kreate 5 offers optimal performance for medium-sized workspaces or nearfield setups.

• Woven Glass Fiber Woofer
  A lightweight 5-inch composite cone delivers tight bass and accurate midrange response. The material's natural damping properties reduce distortion, making the Kreate 5 ideal for critical listening.

• Textile Dome Tweeter
  A 1-inch neodymium-powered tweeter ensures smooth, pristine high frequencies up to 40kHz, providing clarity and detail essential for mixing high-resolution audio.

• Bi-Amplified Power
  Separate Class D and Class A/B amplifiers power the woofer and tweeter independently for precise crossover control and clean output. The Kreate 5 delivers 60W of continuous power with 128W of dynamic headroom.

• Wide Frequency Response
  Covers a range of 58Hz to 40kHz (±3dB), with a low-frequency extension down to 46Hz. Ideal for hearing both the body and nuance of your mix without the need for a subwoofer in many setups.

• Acoustic Tuning Controls
  High and low frequency level adjustment options allow you to compensate for your room acoustics. Tailor the sound to your environment for better translation across playback systems.

• Multiple Input Options
  Equipped with balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS combo jacks, as well as an unbalanced RCA input for universal compatibility with a variety of gear including mixers, audio interfaces, DJ setups, and more.

• Bluetooth 5.3 Wireless Audio Streaming
  Features Bluetooth Classic 5.3 with True Wireless Stereo (TWS) and A2DP, enabling cable-free playback for convenient reference listening from smartphones, tablets, or computers.

• Precision Limiters
  Built-in limiters maintain balanced sound and protect against distortion, even at high sound pressure levels. This ensures consistent performance and speaker longevity.

• Factory-Installed Foam Isolation Pad
  Reduces vibration and resonance by decoupling the speaker from your desk or monitor stand, resulting in cleaner sound and better imaging.
