KRK G4 studio monitors stopped powering on, capacitor replacement fix
2 and 2 months years is how long they lasted me until both started to play up. I went for a holiday in December, 1 week before I left the right speaker started flickering the LED panel and wouldn't power on. I just came back and now the left speaker is doing the same thing but it eventually powers o

Yamaha HS8 with 8 years of use or a newer used KRK Rokit 7? I’m unsure which one to choose.
HS8's are just about a "budget" standard at this point. Rokits are a joke (though certain older KRK's are pretty good). If you can listen to them first and they're clean, I'd go HS8's any day of the week.

Old post, but anyone interested: I've had mine for 2 yr and 9 months. One literally just did exactly as the original poster. Worked in the AM, went to work, came home, and it's not working, has a faint white flashing on the LSD. Checked fuse, no issue. I find this odd, since the warranty is 3 years

They both look like they’re in piss poor condition. If you’re gonna go KRK, go higher than Rokit that line is shit. Get the VX8. If you’re gonna go HS8, get a pair that’s not covered in stickers and clearly on its last breath.

Warning to KRK Rokit users: My €200 Rokit 5 G4 speaker went silent just after two years I bought a pair of brand-new KRK Rokit 5 G4s in November 2022. By November 2024, one of them began acting up - it wouldn't power on properly, and the rear LED screen would blink rapidly. I found a temporary worka
