The Mackie HR824mk2 active studio monitors manage to improve on the
widely-used originals. New features, such as a solid aluminum Zero Edge
baffle and optimized waveguide help to give the HR824mk2 even more
accurate, natural sound reproduction. Designed with high-definition
audio in mind, this monitor provides exeptional clarity for surround
5.1 and 7.1 applications, and an Acoustic Space Control function allows
it to be adapted to any room and still provide maximum accuracy.
Low-frequency roll-off and high-frequency shelf functions are also
included on the HR824mk2.
New baffle design
The HR824mk2 features a Zero Edge baffle, which is constructed from a
solid piece of aluminum. The new baffle design minimizes diffraction
and helps provide a clear sonic image, as well as tight bass response.
An optimized waveguide disperses sound evenly over a wide field, as
well as providing robust mids. These improvements to frequency response
and depth of field make the HR monitors sound better than ever.
Acoustic Space Control
An integrated Acoustic Space Control feature makes these monitors ideal
for locations (such as video post suites and home/project studios)
where available space is limited. This feature gives you full space,
half-space, and quarter space settings, which adjusts the bass response
when they're away from walls, against walls, or set up in corners. Low
frequency roll-off and high frequency shelf functions are also
switchable on the back panel.
Ample wattage, time correction
The HR824mk2's 8.75" low-frequency driver receives 150 watts from an
onboard FR (Fast Recovery) amplifier. The waveguide-loaded aluminum
dome tweeter is powered with 100 watts, and an active crossover helps
to eliminate phase anomalies. These monitors also include
time-correction circuitry, which allows the highs and lows to reach the
listener at the same time.
