The Legacy of Accuracy: The Mackie HR824mk2 Studio Monitor
The Mackie HR824mk2 is a high-resolution active studio reference monitor that builds upon the legendary performance of the classic HR series. Designed for professional recording studios, post-production houses, and critical listening environments, the HR824mk2 delivers an incredibly accurate and transparent sound, ensuring your mixes translate perfectly to any system.
At its core, the HR824mk2 features an 8.75-inch high-precision, low-distortion LF transducer and a 1-inch titanium dome, ferrofluid-cooled tweeter. The patented Zero Edge Baffle™ minimizes diffraction for a crystal-clear image of your mix and a wide, even sweet spot. A key feature is the passive radiator on the rear, which provides a tight, articulate, and extended bass response, free from the port distortion found in many other monitors.
The HR824mk2 is equipped with a powerful FR (Fast Recovery) bi-amplification system (150W LF / 100W HF) and a suite of acoustic controls, including Acoustic Space, LF roll-off, and HF shelf, allowing you to precisely tune the monitor to your room. With its robust, internally braced MDF cabinet, the HR824mk2 is a true professional tool for any serious audio engineer.
