Benefits

Work and Play: Shape the sound of your Mackie CR3.5BT speakers on the fly, so you can mix a podcast episode, listen to music, and DJ a house party, all with the same set of compact speakers.

Tone Control: Use the tone control knob to shape the sound, starting with the transparent response you expect from studio monitors. Turn the knob to gradually boost the bass and add high-end sparkle, perfect for using CR3.5BT as immersive gaming speakers, casual listening speakers, or all-out party speakers.

Location Switch: Flip the location switch between Desktop speaker mode and Bookshelf speaker mode to optimize CR3.5BT. Use Desktop mode for listening up close and Bookshelf mode for listening at a distance.

Bluetooth: Pair smartphones, laptops, and other Bluetooth devices for studio-quality sound you can stream wirelessly.

Analog Inputs: Hook up audio interfaces, mixers, record players, and other playback devices with TRS, RCA, and 3.5 mm connectors.

Headphone Output: Switch to quiet listening with the built-in headphone output—just connect your headphones to cut the speaker audio.
