Mackie CR8-XBT Multimedia Monitors put studio-quality sound right on your desktop at a great value. Mackie have earned their reputation for quality studio monitoring over the years, and CR8-XBT Multimedia Monitors are just as suitable for multimedia production as they are for gaming and casual listening. Musicians at Music Experience appreciate the convenient front-panel headphone output for private listening sessions, while a range of inputs are ready to accept signal from your computer, audio interface, or portable device. And built-in Bluetooth connectivity means you can even stream audio wirelessly. Whether you're outfitting an editing studio, or simply looking to upgrade your desktop listening experience, you'll be impressed with Mackie CR8-XBT Multimedia Monitors!

Studio-quality monitoring at an entry-level price

The Mackie CR8-XBT 8" Creative Reference Multimedia Monitors are well-priced to suit just about any budget — but they aren't cheap. From their birch plywood cabinets to their ferrofluid-cooled tweeters to their smooth waveguide design, the CR8-Xs are built with high-quality components and thoughtful design. The woofers' small size belies their low-end punch, and the silk tweeters, kept cool by ferrofluid, articulate superbly for pleasing treble frequency production. The custom-tuned rear bass ports and included acoustic isolation pads further enhance the CR8-XBT's sound quality, minimizing bass buildup and facilitating purer waveform production throughout their entire 40Hz–20kHz range.

High-value functionality

Mackie CR-XBT series reference monitors pack heavyweight punch in a small form factor. Each pair features 1/8" TRS input on the front and dual RCA and 1/4" phone jack inputs on the rear panel. There's a selector switch for determining which stereo channel (left or right) is sent to the powered speaker, so you can have it on your left or right, and the front panel's 3.5mm headphone jack conveniently mutes the speaker output when in use. And with 80W of power pushed through the built-in waveguide design, you can expect plenty of volume and smooth, clear sound dispersion at every listening level.

What Mackie Says...

Everyone deserves professional sound. CR8-XBT Creative Multimedia Reference Monitors are designed for content creators, producers, musicians, video editors and beyond. Experience detailed studio sound quality through powerful 8” creative reference monitors with Bluetooth connectivity.

Elite Performance For Your Studio

Mackie CR8-XBT studio monitors are unrivaled in sound quality and style. Now you can have true studio sound in any creative space, whether you’re a content creator, a DJ, solo artist, producer, or are simply looking for stellar sound so you can enjoy your favorite music, movies and more. CR8-XBT monitors combine a silk dome tweeter and an 8” polypropylene woofer for clean, articulate sound with plenty of low-end extension. With Bluetooth connectivity, you can go wireless and stream audio straight to your monitors.

Studio-quality Sound

Premium woofers and tweeters, high-headroom amplifiers and all-wood enclosures—this is what professional sound is made of. Don’t let the compact size fool you. CR8-XBT studio monitors deliver clean, accurate sound for bedroom studios and gaming setups alike.

Sleek Cosmetics

Sounding great is only half the battle—your multimedia monitors should reflect your style too. The sharp aesthetic of CR8-XBT monitors looks great in the studio, the bedroom or any home listening setup. Be bold and make it loud without sacrificing style.

Control it

No one likes having to dig around for monitor controls. That’s why we put a volume control and power switch right on the front. Toggle the speaker placement switch to change which side of the desk you want the volume knob on. Your creative space is a personal command center. We’re just giving you better tools to control it.

Flexible inputs

We wouldn’t limit you to just one input type! CR8-XBT monitors have 1/4“, 1/8“ and RCA inputs for added versatility. With so many options, you can connect an audio interface, turntable, smartphone or media player all at once!

Got headphones?

So, your mix sounds great through your studio monitors. Now what? Get a second perspective of your mix using the front-facing headphone jack. Listening through the headphones jack automatically turns off output from the monitors—no need to twist knobs or pull faders.

Cut The Cord

In addition to our standard inputs, CR8-XBT monitors feature Bluetooth connectivity to make it easy to listen to music instantly, without a mess of extra wires. Just hold down the Running Man icon and let the Bluetooth magic do the rest.

It’s All About The Bass

Treat yourself to some extra bass. CR8-XBT monitors have polypropylene woofers and rear-firing ports for tight bass response, but if you really want to shake the block, add the CR8S-XBT. The matching subwoofer is driven by a 200W amplifier and 8” high-output woofer for a strong low-end knockout. Still with us?
