[100 dB] Coming from a set of CR4’s and also having a set of CR3’s as my desktop speaker setup, these things blow both out of the water. I’m using these CR8’s as just multimedia speakers mostly via Bluetooth for music in my shop. The clarity is great. Lows punch hard but doesn’t overpower the mids and highs. It’s a great set of speakers. 5

[3 kHz] Works well. 5

Greg	17/06/2024
[16.8 x 11 x 9"] I ordered these for my department for editing stations and I'm quite impressed. These speakers have incredible sound. There are nice highs, good mids, and a decent amount of bass. I was on the fence about purchasing these or going with a larger version. These are by far the best studio speakers I've used for the price. 5

Garry	07/06/2024
[Stereo Pair] The Mackie CR5-XBT produce great sound at an incredible price. I use them in my home office where I edit audio podcasts, and can do so without using a headset. The Bluetooth feature was a must and they sync very well with my PC and mobile devices. 5

Scott	29/05/2024
[MDF] I bought these not knowing exactly how they would fit or sound in my studio. I am very impressed! Clean lows, crisp highs, and in such a small package...I made a great choice. The Bluetooth works flawlessly and my son now goes into the studio to listen to his music as well. Great product and I am very please with this purchase. 5

Sherry	16/05/2024
[100 dB] Love the sound and quality of these speakers. OutStanding! 5

Darren	12/05/2024
[3 kHz] Bought these for desktop monitoring of my video edit work and music when I'm doing other stuff. They sound great! Accurate, clean and not boomy. The Bluetooth connects easily and works as expected. I think they have plenty of bass, but I am now itchin' to add the Mackie sub for some more low-end :) 5

Jeffrey	28/04/2024
[11.61 lb] These speakers have a solid frequency response in comparison to other speakers of similar size and price. Perfect for small home studio referencing. 5

Kelly	17/04/2024
[Active 2-Way] I do Youtube content creation and I was looking to replace my 3 piece computer speakers that I previously used for pc gaming with something more mature and accurate with sound profiles for audio recording. These are excellent for the intended purpose given that they only cost $200 but reflect sound you'd expect in a professional studio. I will say that they provide adequate bass but if you really want the thump and vibration for bass heavy frequencies you'd probably also want to spend on the subwoofer that can be purchased separately, I haven't turned these up full volume yet because I don't feel like intentionally angering neighbors but the audio is enough to fill whatever room you put them in and possibly the next several rooms as well. Very pleased with my purchase 5

[3 kHz] I was looking for inexpensive monitors for my office/recording space. The sound quality is great, they were easy to set up, and the bluetooth is a nice additional feature. 5
