The KRK V8 is a bi-amplified studio monitor with an 8" woofer and 1" silk dome tweeter. The high and low transducers are powered by 60 and 120 watt amplifiers and are capable of putting out a healthy 111 dB.
The previous model, the V8, was criticized for a lack of bottom, but this is not the case with the V8 II. The new 8-inch woofer is upgraded with a larger voice coil and a lighter, stiffer cone. The new tweeter design is an excellent upgrade from the original V8, which was a little harsh to some. The V8 IIs have better spatial imaging and express a larger sweet spot, as compared to the previous model.
Showroom Models - $298 each.

Symetrix 562E Expander/Gate
Symetrix 562E Windowing Expander/Gate is a full-featured 2-channel gate or downward expander. In addition to all the usual controls and adjustments, a feature called Window Advance allows the entire leading edge of transient signals to pass through the 562E cleanly. Thus, the full impact of a drum's attack is allowed through at even the fastest settings, without clicking or popping.
