move off axis. You get superior bass extension—tight and free from distortion—so your lows pack just the right amount of punch. And to ensure the best sound possible for your setup, the MR Series monitors feature acoustic controls so you can tune them to fit your room. With their Active bi-amplified architecture, wide dispersion, ultra-flat frequency response and outstanding bass performance, you get superior imaging with impeccable clarity, for a truly inspirational, non-fatiguing monitoring experience. Mackie's MR Series monitors achieve their transparent sound quality thanks to these key design elements: BaffleMinimum-Diffraction Molded Baffle: When it comes to baffle design, shape matters; it plays a role in how sound waves travel. The baffle is precisely molded to minimize diffraction, so sound waves radiate smoothly, and are dispersed optimally. The precision waveguide is designed to ensure broad, even dispersion, and a smooth transition between highs and lows. The result is a crystal clear image of your mix, with an ultra-wide, even sweet spot. Whether you're in mix position or not, on axis or off, you'll always hear an accurate representation of your mix. AmplifierAmplifier Design: Amplifiers are the power behind a monitor's sound, but they can also color it. Unlike with passive monitors, these amplifiers are precisely matched to the monitor design. Featuring Mackie's proven Class A/B architecture, the MR Monitors' amplifiers are meticulously tuned to deliver ultra-flat frequency response, so the sound remains neutral. To compensate for room characteristics, acoustic controls allow you to adjust High Frequency and Low Frequency settings (+/-2dB). Balanced inputs allow you to get the best signal possible, but the option of unbalanced inputs mean you can connect easily to any source. And MR Monitors deliver enough power to handle the toughest source material, at sound levels beyond sane people's requirements. Cabinet: A speaker's cabinet is more than just an enclosure—it's another component that affects the overall quality and character of the sound. These cabinets feature a rear port, carefully tuned to deliver superior bass performance with no audible vent noise. Because air passes through the precisely engineered curved port easily, there is no distortion, and no build-up of pressure within the cabinet that could affect driver movement. The rigidity of the cabinet's precision-braced MDF construction also prevents vibration, meaning your sound is always free from unwanted resonance. WooferTransducers: Transducers are responsible for converting your electrical signal into sound, so consistent, unwavering performance is a must if you want sonic clarit  (less)

8 Ohms bridged, with enough overhead to always keep you on the safe side. The A500’s advanced convection-type cooling system guarantees stable, noise-free operation, while its servo-controlled design can drive virtually all passive speakers. A precise level meter and clip indicators are provided for accurate performance monitoring. Input connections are laid out on balanced XLR, 1/4' TRS and RCA connectors, making sure you never run out of connectivity options. Plus, the speaker outputs give you a choice between professional 'touch-proof' binding posts and 1/4' TS connectors. To assure years of trouble-free operation, we only use the ultra-reliable Toshiba or Fairchild high-power transistors that are known for their rock-solid reputation. In addition to all these features, an independent thermal overload protection system with LED indicators for each channel automatically protects both your amplifier and your speakers. Last but not least, we have relied on a tough high-current toroidal transformer for absolute reliability and lowest noise interference possible. You deserve the very best in studio power amplification. Get the A500 and it will be love at first sight: it's reference-class audio, ultra-reliable quality and super-affordable! Features: Ultra-linear power amplifier for recording studios, post-production, live sound and HiFi application 2 x 230 Watts into 4 Ohms, 500 Watts into 8 Ohms in bridged mono operation Servo-controlled design can drive virtually any passive speaker such as studio monitors, etc. Advanced convection-cooling for absolutely noise-free and stable operation (no fan) Precise level meter and clip indicators for accurate performance monitoring Input connections on balanced XLR, 1/4' TRS and RCA connectors Speaker outputs on professional 'touch-proof' binding posts and 1/4' TS connectors Ultra-reliable Toshiba / Fairchild high-power transistors Independent thermal overload protection with LED indicator for each channel automatically protects amplifier and speakers High-current toroidal transformer for absolute reliability and lowest noise interference High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life Conceived and designed by BEHRINGER Germany  (less)
