Mackie MR524 5" Powered Studio Monitor

Artists, engineers, and content creators like you are more innovative than ever, and we know how much you rely on your gear to express your creativity. MR Series monitors bring you closer to your music and your mix than ever before to deliver professional results without breaking the bank.

Designed to meet the demands of modern musicians, producers and engineers.

Unmatched Accuracy and Clarity

With an all-new design, MR Series monitors utilize our proven technology and acoustic tuning to deliver incredible accuracy and clarity. The logarithmic waveguide provides an ultra-wide listening sweet spot and enhanced stereo imaging while the Acoustic Space Control allows you to adjust the frequency response of the monitor to match your studio. The MR524 gets a frequency response of 45 HZ - 20 kHZ. Whether it's dialogue, hip-hop, rock, and beyond, you can listen with confidence knowing your mix will sound great anywhere.

For extended bass response in your studio, the MRS10 Powered Studio Subwoofer delivers powerful low-end reinforcement perfect for when your music hits hard and low.

Accuracy - Mix Translation

When you mix your project in the studio, you rely on your monitors to present a faithful reproduction of your work. The more accurate your monitors are, the better your mix will "translate" to other listening environments and formats. This means that if it sounds great in the studio, you can count on it sounding great everywhere else. MR Series monitors are designed to do just that.

Clarity - Logarithmic Waveguide

Mackie's proven logarithmic waveguide provides an ultra-wide listening sweet spot and enhanced stereo imaging for increased clarity and consistent sound over a wide area of the room. Precise acoustic alignment offers incredibly balanced sound across the entire frequency spectrum.

Transducers

A 1-inch neodymium magnet driven silk dome tweeter provides fast transient response for detailed high end and vocal clarity. A 5.25-inch polypropylene woofer delivers responsive, dynamic low-frequency response.

Amplification

The MR524 offers 50 watts of bi-amplified Class A/B amplification, combined LF/HF continuous, per channel into 4 Ohms wattage targets.

Optimize with Acoustic Space Control

The superior acoustic design and accuracy of a monitor is meaningless if it isn't optimized for the room it is in. Equipped with Mackie's versatile Acoustic Space Control and HF filters, MR monitors can be easily optimized for your environment to ensure a flat response. The MR524 is acoustically optimized with sound-tightening acoustic absorption material.

Optimize MR monitors for your mixing environment. Adjustable acoustic space filters maintain flat response in typical placement configurations. HF filter applies boost or cut to compensate for particularly dull or bright sounding rooms.

Wood Cabinet

A professional all-wood cabinet design is built to last and look great in any studio. Custom designed internal bracing adds stiffness for reduced distortion and enhanced low-frequency response.

Flexible Inputs

The MR524 provides flexible inputs for simple connection to almost any audio source.

Get Bass with the MRS10 Studio Subwoofer

When your music has some serious low-end, the shelf-ported MRS10 studio subwoofer (not included) provides the deep, extended response you need to experience everything in your mix to its fullest potential. With a built-in variable crossover, you can dial it in to match your monitors perfectly, and if you want to hear your mix without it, simply bypass the subwoofer and built-in crossover with the included footswtich.

The MRS10 offers powerful, deep low-frequency extension perfect for electronic music, hip-hop and more.
