Mackie CR3-X Review

Mackie's CR3-X speakers are affordable, barebones studio monitors with a focus on accurate audio performance.

Bluetooth model costs $20 extra ; Lacks USB/Thunderbolt connections

Mackie CR3-X LTD review: Multimedia Monitors delivering true sound

If you're searching for a pair of desktop monitors at a great price, the Mackie CR3-X Multimedia Monitors may be an excellent choice for you.

Great Looking Design ; Lots of style choices ; Crisp, clear sound

Bass may be lacking for some ; Better bass response requires purchase of separate subwoofer

For the most part, speakers are rather ordinary and bland. They are rectangular boxes with circular cutouts for the speakers. On the other hand, the Mackie CR3-X Multimedia Monitors designers manage to shake things up a bit with some understated design...

The Best Computer Speakers

After testing 11 top-rated computer speakers, we think the Mackie CR3 are the best for most people because they're easy to use and sound great for the price.
