General

These Bluetooth-ready Mackie CR8-XBT multimedia monitors feel right at home in your studio or entertainment set-up and are outfitted with numerous connections and 8-inch woofers powered by two 160W amplifiers.

The Mackie CR8-XBT: Characteristics

The Mackie CR8-XBT monitors reproduce a neutral sound for music and audio content mixing and come with isolation pads to prevent them from passing any vibrations on to your desk. Next to the RCA inputs which can be found on most consumer-grade gear, these nearfield monitors also boast balanced TRS jack connections and can be hooked up to professional equipment such as mixers and audio interfaces.

Included Software

If you're looking to build a home studio, it's worth knowing that Mackie throw in a copy of ProTools First with this set of CR8-XBT monitors. This audio software can be used for editing and mixing and, since the Musicians Collection Plugin bundle comes included as well, you'll be all set to create the next big hit.
