Price is per pair (active + passive).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe CR8BT is the largest model in the Creative Reference Gen 3 lineup – designed for workstations that double as studios, offices and listening rooms. The Class-D amplifier (140 W RMS total, 70 W per speaker) lives in the active enclosure, which drives the passive satellite via the included speaker cable. The crossover at 2.0 kHz divides the signal between the 8\" woven-cone woofer and the silk-dome tweeter, which sits behind a waveguide shaped for wide dispersion across the listening area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTone Control and Location Switch – one pair, multiple contexts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe front-panel Tone Control knob shifts the speaker's character in real time: fully counterclockwise gives a flat reference response for tracking and mixing; turning right gradually adds bass weight and top-end sparkle for gaming, casual listening or party use. The rear-panel Location Switch applies an EQ curve optimized for either desktop mode (nearfield, close-up listening) or bookshelf mode (listening from a distance). The front-panel headphone output automatically mutes the speakers when headphones are connected – clean for late-night sessions without any additional steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe active monitor's rear panel includes a balanced\/unbalanced 1\/4\" TRS input, RCA stereo inputs and a 1\/8\" stereo jack, covering studio interfaces and mixers alongside consumer gear like turntables and computers. Bluetooth 5.0 adds wireless streaming from phones, tablets and laptops. The rear-firing bass-reflex port extends the low end to 44 Hz; allow clearance from the wall for optimal bass performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8\" woven-cone low-frequency driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\" silk-dome tweeter with waveguide for wide dispersion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140 W RMS total (70 W per speaker), Class-D amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 44 Hz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 108 dB peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCrossover point: 2.0 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTone Control – real-time voicing from flat reference to boosted casual listening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLocation Switch – EQ optimization for desktop or bookshelf placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBluetooth 5.0 – wireless audio streaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInputs: 1\/4\" TRS (balanced\/unbalanced), RCA, 1\/8\" stereo jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFront-panel headphone output with automatic speaker mute\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMDF enclosure with rear-firing bass-reflex port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes: speaker cable for passive satellite, RCA cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLF driver: 8\" woven cone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHF driver: 1\" silk-dome with waveguide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAmplifier power: 140 W RMS total (70 W per speaker), Class D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 44 Hz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 108 dB peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCrossover: 2.0 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBluetooth: 5.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInputs: 1\/4\" TRS (balanced\/unbalanced), RCA, 1\/8\" stereo jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput: headphone jack (front panel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower requirements: 120 VAC 60 Hz \/ 220–240 VAC 50\/60 Hz \/ 100 VAC 50\/60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensions (H × W × D): 376 × 251 × 346 mm (14.8\" × 9.9\" × 13.6\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePair weight: 16.0 kg (35.2 lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mackie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53445981143377,"sku":"59276","price":295.08,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/MackieCR8BT1.jpg?v=1775551693","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de\/products\/mackie-cr8-bt","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
