KRK Rockit 5/6 worthwhile upgrade from ms40's? Also what soundcard? Posted on: 31.08.2013 by Rolando Lomangino so i am trying to decide if its going to be worth it upgrading to the krks... also what soundcard do most people use with them? I planned on buying an audio 6 or audio 10 for vinyl and do they have TRS output? sorry but im a little clueless about pro setups like this. | |

I used to have an Audio 6 and it worked fine - there was no noticeable latency when mixing or scratching. I would imagine the Audio 10 would work fine too, but I've never used one. |

| Hipolito Scionti 02.09.2013 | DB2 has a built in soundcard so just hook up the KRKs to that. Just mix your vinyl as normal through the DB2... rip it if you want them as digital files... Not sure of your problem? |
| Alphonso Deitchman 02.09.2013 | Pretty much every mixer has multiple outputs so there's no need to chain the main output through a sound card. Main out directly to the speakers, and Rec/Booth out to your sound card for recording. |

| Francoise Stober 01.09.2013 | I love my KRK 5s. Hi frequencies are very crisp and it is very loud, I got 2 noise complaints for it and it was it even full volume. Highly recommend it. Also it doesn't matter which soundcard you use. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 01.09.2013 | You can connect multiple devices to most monitors, so the mixer could go to the XLR speaker input and your computer/sound card could go to the RCA or TRS input. |
