KRK Kreate 3 3.5" studio monitors bring KRK's renowned sonic accuracy to musicians, producers, and creators who demand exceptional performance in compact designs. Featuring a 2-way bass reflex system, these active monitors combine a 3.5" woven glass fiber composite woofer with a 3/4" textile dome tweeter to deliver precise audio reproduction across a wide frequency range of 70Hz–33kHz. With a robust Class-D amplifier, the Kreate 3 provides 65W of total power and dynamic peaks of up to 130W, ensuring rich transient response and consistent clarity during extended sessions. Designed for accurate playback and efficient operation, this model is ideal for tracking, mixing and crafting detailed soundscapes.

Composite Glass Fiber Woofers

The Kreate 3 monitors feature 3.5" woven glass fiber composite woofers engineered for superior damping and modal breakup control. This material enables the cone to handle dynamic shifts with precision, ensuring deep bass reproduction that stays clean and tightly focused. The result is powerful low-end response without unwanted distortion, even at higher volumes. By minimizing resonance and maintaining linear response, these woofers allow creators to produce mixes that translate accurately across playback systems, making them an indispensable tool for critical listening environments.

Textile Dome Tweeters Extend High-End Clarity

High frequencies are handled by a 3/4" textile dome tweeter equipped with a neodymium motor, delivering smooth and accurate sound reproduction up to 33kHz. The carefully designed dome geometry reduces unwanted coloration and ensures an extended frequency range for capturing subtle sonic details. This tweeter design allows content creators to monitor intricate high-end information with clarity, making it easier to shape sparkling highs and nuanced textures in their mixes. Whether tracking vocals or balancing complex arrangements, the tweeter ensures every detail remains audible and defined.

Class-D Amplifier for Efficient Power and Performance

Driving the system is a Class-D amplifier that delivers 65W of total power while operating at reduced temperatures, ensuring reliable performance during long sessions. With dynamic power output peaks of up to 130W, the amplifier provides the transient headroom necessary to reproduce fast, punchy attacks and complex soundscapes. Optimized for efficiency, this system guarantees consistent audio integrity without sacrificing energy consumption or stability. This feature makes the Kreate 3 a dependable choice for both home studios and professional environments where accurate monitoring is critical.

Durable Enclosure Construction for Acoustic Stability
