General
The MR5mk3 is part of the third revision of Mackie's compact studio monitor series. Despite being the smallest model from the series, it certainly delivers the goods - thanks to carefully selected components that match each other perfectly, this monitor produces a sound that'll blow you away. If you're still working with modest computer speakers or OEM monitors of a questionable quality, the MR5mk3 is an excellent upgrade.
MR5mk3: components
A balanced sound can only be achieved by meticulously chosen components in a well-designed housing. Fortunately, the Mackie MR5mk3 checks all those boxes. Its 5.25-inch polypropylene woofer has been securely mounted in a sturdy, all-wood cabinet, ensuring that bass tones and mids are reproduced without any distortion. The tweeter is surrounded by a redesigned waveguide that enhances dispersion and widens the sweet spot.
Amplification
The MR5mk3 is particularly suitable as a nearfield monitor, but that doesn't mean its sound is fragile or its volume unimpressive. In fact, the compact monitor features a built-in class-AB amplifier module with an RMS power of 50 watts. As every (studio) space has its own acoustics, it's important to determine the MR5mk3's optimal settings before using it as a reference monitor. Simply use the HF and LF controls to set the right high and low-frequency levels, and the Mackie monitor will sound just as it should.
