Mackie Mr5 Mk3 Powered Studio Monitor Review

I came from Mackie MR5 mk1's that I owned for many many years. These have a deeper, tighter bass. I like the high end through these too. It's not brash. Sound stage is pretty wide. I briefly owned Kali LP6 but returned them due to the noisey Class D amps that sounded like a waterfall (white noise) in a quieter room from 2-3 feet away. These Mackies have a Class A/B amp design that is much much quieter. Plus the Mackies just sound tighter to my ears. Esp in the low end. More mid definition too compared to the Kali monitors. The enclosure of the Kalis was a flexy cheap plastic. These Mackies are a lot more sturdy. I'm happy. I would probably give these a 4.5/5 if I could. And the LP6 a 3.

I've been waiting on this Mackie Big Knob Studio Monitor Controller and Interface forever, finally B&H got them available, so i went ahead and get one, so far so great, sounds clean and crisp no coloration additive. I'm thinking about getting another one. I've tested the Onyx Mic pre's in Logic pro x, very clean, Mackie Big Knob Studio being advertised only at 24/96KHZ, it goes up to 192KHZ...

Simple and rock solid studio monitor knob! If you own multiple studio speakers. This is a must! Mackie does its job as always!

Coming from MR5's Mk1 these are a great upgrade. Also more stylish for our studio than the JBL's or others that have that lacquer-finish plastic all over it.

I love my new Mackie. I run karaoke and have the whole sound setup of powered amp and bulky speakers. I decided to buy the Mackie to do small gigs - home karaoke parties, singing in restaurants or aged peoples homes. This is just the thing. Great sound and plenty of volume when needed. Compact, lightweight and set up in minutes. I love it!

I purchased two Mackie SR18S 1600W pro powered subwoofers and two Mackie Thump 215XT 1400W powered loud speakers from B&H. A few cables and just using my IPAD this is incredible.My first time using B&H and very impressed.

The MPK mini MK3 has fulfilled all my needs, expectations and then some. FL Studio 20 recognized it immediately. The piano keys really feel realistic and the infinity knobs really did away with the limitations of its predecessor! Easy to program and with a myriad of available settings and controls, this compact MIDI controller sets itself as a must have. Setup took some time between downloads and activation of the different bundled sounds and software and it is done via iLok, so be patient as the result will be a very powerful addition to your music creation process!

Mackie has finally stop making muddy sounding Studio Monitors... Mind blowing Mackie Monitors 2020 forward!!!

we use these to connect our Video Projector to our powered studio monitors

I have been using the Mackie SRM Series Studio monitors in my recording studio and home sound system for years, and did not expect this set to sound as good given the price point. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this set really sounds. If you feed them a quality audio source, they sound great. If you plug them into a cheap sound source, not so much. I like that these have multiple unbalanced and balanced input jacks. Keep in mind that these are near field monitors, so the correct placement on your desktop is necessary to realize the potential sound quality.
