The new model has a 6.5-inch yellow woven Kevlar woofer, a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter and a front bass-reflex port. A built-in two-channel Class D amplifier delivers 455 W in total. Like the four-inch version, the V6 supports KRK Mesh wireless technology. Users can adjust individual monitors or groups remotely over Bluetooth through the KRK Control App. The monitor uses high-quality ESS DACs and an Analog Devices DSP processor.
