5 inch monitor speaker guide for DJ's 2021! Which one is best for you?  

Fair point!

Don't be a sheep!

Thank you! I would probably go for something with a big bass frequency!

Krk Rokit for Dub.

The HS5's are probably the flatest speakers of the 2 which can help in mastering but they are not the most pleasant to listen to, I replaced mine with KRK's G4's which sound great but are also usable when producing although they do impart a "KRK" sound on mixes. But really, if you are using your speakers for anything other than mastering avoid the HS5. They are designed to master on and they are great for that but no one should buy them as DJ speakers. Just my 2 cents

@@TooBarFoo And what does a KRK sound sound like?

It all depends on your budget. If you have a little more to spend, go with a pair of 5" monitors like you see in this video, if not, there are plenty of speakers that come in pairs on a budget, such as the Mackie CR5-X or the Pioneer DJ DM-40s!

@@djkit thanks for your help man😊 nice video btw...i'll leave a like and a sub :)

Take a look at the kanto yu6 range

The Rokits are definitely loud enough for an average size room! Were you looking to use them to replace the speakers you're using now?

@@djkit thank you for replying, i have denon amp and two denon speakers plus two wharfendal 220 i was thinking of keeping the wharfendales connected on back wall and use the rokits where in front where i mix from, reason being rokits to help with mixing and also for audience quality and help and advice would be much appreciated, and i have the budget for the rokit 7 g4 if you thought the rokit 5 g4 where not enough thank you

Which model?

@@djkit 305p ii . Good value speaker imo

There is a mix of speakers here, some are budget, some aren't!

We do sell the Kanto range, they look really good, and the optical / remote control is great for using them with TVs!

It is all personal choice. Are you looking for music production or DJ monitors? And what is your budget?

They are passive speakers that require an amp, so no direct connection I'm afraid!

What did you think they were lacking?

They are designed as studio speakers for mastering on and they are great for that purpose, but they are not pleasant for extended general listening. I really don't think they belong on list aimed at DJ's. That said, I don't think the HS80's fit the bill for DJ speakers either for the same reason. The HS series are based on the NS10's those were used in studios because if you could make your master sound good on those it would sound good on anything. They are built to sound bad to help perfect a master not to listen to!

Thanks for the comment! The CR-4s will be fine for a small room, although if you want more bass on your hard core techno, I would go for something bigger like the KRKs!

It all depends on the budget really!

@@djkit I know but talking about the ones you show in the video? what is your personal choice? or top 2? Thanks for the video and the advice!!!

Independently of the budget

This video was made 2 weeks prior to the VM release! Sods law!

obviously there for a home dj setup lol we know you can't take these to a live gig

@@KeepingUpWithCamm and hr says he's a pro dj? PMSL

@@adamlw7181 i doubt he could mix milk with cereal let alone 2 tunes

Yes, not a bad shout!

It really depends on how loud you need the booth to be! For example, I wouldn't recommend 5" monitors for a club's DJ both, but for a wedding they would probably suffice!

That's actually a great point! Kanto do some pretty cool colours! www.djkit.com/search.php?needle=kanto

Thanks for your comment. What do you mean by 'normal listening?'

You can use an eq if you want more bass or something

Please can you recommend me some speakers for a bedroom DJ? Thanks

Are you saying these monitors can't be used for DJing?

I know what he means.They can be used for a bedroom dj but they're really designed for accuracy. DJ speakers would be something with some colour in it to sound more fun. I'm looking for DJ speakers not studio/reference monitors
