The 824 Monitor Just Got Better!

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.

Mackie HR824mk2 Active Monitor at a Glance:
  • New baffle design
  • Acoustic Space Control
  • Ample wattage, time correction

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.

Mackie HR824mk2 Features:
  • 8.75" high-precision, low-distortion LF driver
  • 1" titanium dome ferrofluid-cooled tweeter
  • Optimized waveguide for wide, even tone
  • Twin FR Series amps: 150W LF, 100W HF
  • Cast aluminum Zero Edge baffle minimizes diffraction
  • Internal damping eliminates midrange artifacts
  • Passive radiator provides tight, articulate bass extension down to 45Hz
  • Acoustic Space Control, LF roll-off, HF shelf controls
  • Balanced XLR, TRS, and unbalanced RCA inputs
  • OmniMount for easy wall or ceiling placement
  • THX pm3 certified for surround applications


The Mackie HR824mk2 is an incredibly accurate active monitor that sounds great in any room!

Solid Mackie Quality...

by Andrew Kaczur from Rogers, OH USA

Music Background: Drummer, home recording hobbyist
I have owned several Mackie products over the past decade, and they never fall short of amazing quality for the price point. The HR824mk2 has been on my wish list for a long time. Well, needless to sa... read more [+]y I was completely blown away by the deep, tight bass response and the articulate, detailed midrange was everything I could ask for in an accurate nearfield monitor. The high's are realistic without causing ear fatigue and I love the room tayloring switches for lows, highs, and acoustic space placement. The auto power on function is a nice included feature as well. I will be using them for mixing and rough mastering in a home environment, and once again Mackie gives you a lot of "bang-for-the-buck". They have perfected this second generation monitor without question! I just wish everyone could hear my mixes on them... close [-]

I've had the original HR824's - a pair of the American made ones, and a pair of the Chinese made ones. There was not very much difference between them.

The mk2's, however, have a tight... read more [+]er, more focused bass, and wherever you move in the room - the sound is very consistent. They are definitely an improvement, by about 25% in my opinion. They are very well made, and I never had any problems with the original pairs I have had for many years. I have recorded and mixed many records on them, and everything translates well to other systems and sounds great on the radio. close [-]
