KRK Systems, part of the Gibson family of brands, introduced the Classic 5 Professional Bi-amp Studio Monitors to its renowned family of professional-grade monitor offerings. Incorporating over 30 years of experience in studio monitor design, KRK’s Classic 5 was designed using concepts from the brand’s previous ROKIT lines to deliver the same high-quality mixes that users have come to expect from KRK. The result is a nearfield studio monitor that delivers a balanced and neutral reference for music creation, mixing and mastering.

Audioengine continues to expand its range of great sounding compact wireless speakers. The new A2+ Wireless Speakers feature an advanced Bluetooth 5 module and were designed for desktop use but with sufficient power to fill a room when needed.

There's even USB, analog inputs and a subwoofer output.
