The Mackie CR3.5 active 3.5" Creative Reference studio monitors combine professional studio quality sound with a sound shaping control to seamlessly switch between studio reference use, music listening, and party mode. With multiple input options and switchable desktop and bookshelf modes, the Mackie CR3.5 may be the only speakers you'll ever need.

Your speakers for work and play

Customize the sound of your Mackie CR3.5 speakers on the fly to mix a podcast episode, listen to music, or DJ a house party—all from the same compact speaker set.

Sound controller

Based on the transparent response expected from studio monitors, the sound can be shaped as required using the tone control. Turning up the control gradually boosts the bass and emphasizes the sparkle in the treble, making the CR3.5 the perfect speaker for immersive gaming, everyday listening, or lively parties.

Position switch

Use the position switch to toggle between desktop and bookshelf speaker modes to optimize the CR3.5 for the respective location. Desktop mode is recommended for near-field listening (e.g., in the studio), while shelf speaker mode is intended for listening at a greater distance (e.g., from the sofa).

Analogue inputs

Audio interfaces, mixing consoles, turntables, and other playback devices can be connected via the TRS jack, RCA, and 3.5 mm mini jack sockets.

Headphone output

The integrated headphone output allows you to switch to silent listening by muting the audio output of your speakers when connecting your headphones.
