General

Ready to trade in your computer speakers for something more serious? Check out these Mackie CR3-XBT active studio monitors aimed at home producers and content creators, and even gamers and music lovers. To get the mix for your podcast or Youtube video sounding good for everyone watching or listening, you need a pair of studio monitors. The CR3-XBR is a great transition model that offers both superb sound quality and the 'honesty' of studio-grade speakers at a more-than-reasonable price.

Great Sound and a Robust and Clean Design

Next to Mackie-grade build quality, this pair of competitively-priced CR3-XBTs also boast the great sound quality and visual design we've come to expect from the American brand. Each one produces 50 Watts of bright and defined sound and comes with RCA and mini-jack inputs. Since it's an active set, the speakers can be directly hooked up to a computer, CD player or phone, without the need for an external amplifier. To ease audio playback some more, Mackie have even equipped the CR3-XBTs with Bluetooth connectivity.

ProTools Software

Along with the pair of speakers, this set includes a copy of ProTools First Professional recording software and plug-in package. Since practically the beginning of time, ProTools have been a heavy-weight contender in the world of audio editing and mixing software, and this pack gets you 23 high-quality audio plug-ins such as BBD Delay, Eleven Lite, 304E EQ and 304C Compressor.
