About the Expose E8B

The KRK Expose E8B is a flagship active studio monitor designed for precise and revealing audio reproduction. It features an 8-inch woofer constructed from a multi-layer sandwich of two Kevlar layers with a Rohacell hard foam core, providing exceptional stiffness and damping to minimize distortion. The woofer is driven by a powerful magnetic motor with a copper pole cap and aluminum shorting ring to reduce motor-induced distortion. The tweeter is a 1-inch AlBeMET inverted dome, delivering extended high-frequency response up to 30 kHz. The system is bi-amplified with discrete Class A/AB amplifiers delivering 140 watts to the woofer and 120 watts to the tweeter. Frequency response is 40 Hz to 30 kHz ±1 dB, with a maximum SPL of 115 dB peak at one meter. Rear panel controls include System Level Adjust (-30 dB to +6 dB), HF Shelf and HF Level adjustments in 0.5 dB steps, and LF Adjust with three settings to compensate for boundary effects. Input is via balanced XLR. The cabinet design includes front porting and acoustic decoupling pads. The Expose E8B is noted for its balanced, revealing sound without harshness, excellent imaging, and tight, accurate bass response, suitable for near- to mid-field monitoring in professional studios. It is a premium product with a price around per pair (approx. each).
