Multimedia Monitors Mackie CR4-X BT, 50W

The Mackie CR4-X BT Bluetooth Multimedia Monitors are compact powered speakers designed for accurate playback across multimedia, home studio and desktop applications. Each pair delivers a combined output of 50 W through a 4" woofer and 0.75" tweeter housed in an MDF cabinet, and offers Bluetooth connectivity plus multiple wired inputs for flexible source selection.

How to use

Place the monitors on a stable surface or dedicated stands at ear height for nearfield listening. Connect your source via Bluetooth or use one of the wired inputs (6.3 mm jack, RCA or 3.5 mm mini-jack). Use the front-panel volume control to set listening level and plug headphones into the 3.5 mm output for private monitoring. If adding a second pair, connect via the speaker terminals following the manufacturer’s wiring guidance.

Usage recommendations

For most accurate monitoring, allow a short break-in period and position the monitors symmetrically relative to your listening position. Avoid placing them directly against walls to reduce bass build-up; use isolation pads or stands if possible.
