REVIEW
As a professional studio monitoring solution, the Mackie MR8mk2 reference monitor is extremely balanced, outputting high-frequency clarity and midrange definition you can stake your reputation on. It out-powers any competitively-priced monitor solution and delivers deeper and more accurate bass than anything in its class. Perfect for professional and home studios, as well as home theaters and multimedia applications, the Mackie MR8mk2 monitor delivers a rich sonic experience and the power, performance and clarity you need to create world-class mixes.
The Mackie MR8mk2 studio monitor features all-new professional transducers specifically designed to meet the demands of the modern project studio. The neodymium magnet-driven silk dome tweeter is both smooth and accurate, featuring ferro-fluid cooling to help protect against power compression during wide dynamic playback. Meanwhile, the hyperbolic curved cone woofer, inverted dust cap and long voice coil winding work in tandem to deliver smooth consistent output with controlled low frequency performance.
The dual precision class A/B amplifiers have been re-voiced to specifically match their new driver components, ensuring that your sound is minimally impacted by distortion, artifacts or changes in frequency response often imparted by working at a variety of volume levels. The Mackie MR8mk2 monitor is a 2-way design that offers up to 150W of total system power. Delivering more power than anything in its class, the MR8mk2 studio monitor provides exceedingly smooth output, from ultra-low bass frequencies to precise midrange and sparkling highs.
Furthermore, an optimally-sized custom waveguide is designed to maximize sonic clarity and dispersion, while also serving to minimize diffractions. This approach allows for seamless transition of HF and LF content along with a 3-dimensional sense of space. The Mackie MR8mk2 monitor also features a molded baffle to impart superior imaging and depth. Your monitor need to be as accurate as it is great-sounding, the Mackie MR8mk2 design philosophy gives you exactly that.
Much more than sleek-looking, the Mackie MR8mk2 cabinet also features custom-tuned rear ports, allowing for the controlled passage of air in and out. Plus, the cabinet is constructed of solid MDF, so there's no unwanted distortion from air movement or vibrations. Transducers are never restricted by pressure and the cabinets resonate low for deep balanced bass.
Mackie know that studios can be expensive to set up, which is why everything even down to the cabinet design of MR8mk2s is handled with the utmost attention to detail.
