Build quality is solid as expected

odd bump
hiss when audio is playing
not perfect
monitor speakers but poorly made - Stay Away
There is no sound from the source
is sometimes muddled and housing can rattle at some frequencies
brush of a wrist on guitar strings
similar durability as compared to the expensive alternatives
heavy speakers weighing down your bag
the lights are not too bright
Mackie CR3 does not compromise on clarity on any sound levels
the speakers have a wooden casing
The drum loop does seem to get a little added bass push
speakers notably lack a USB audio connection or a Thunderbolt port
been nice to see USB and/or Thunderbolt ports
It may not display this or other websites correctly
It is not intended to be a deep dive
the treble is too much
and are a little more expensive on average
Mackie CR4 might look a little boring
the color a little garish
no shortage of speakers available these days and competition is tough
the CR4s are a little lacking in places
fully anti clockwise also turns off the speakers
monitors are rather distinctive compared to most of their direct competition
missing is room acoustic controls
noticeable drop once you reach around 100 Hz

Mackie CR-X Creative Reference Multimedia monitors review - The Gadgeteer

REVIEW - Speakers can vary wildly in terms of sound profiles and quality. While I'm no audiophile (speaker snob), I do appreciate a nice set of monitors.
