Monitor Series
Compact Two-Way Speaker
MR5S
SPEAKER
Careful acoustic design and the use of advanced
materials contribute to the exceptional music fidelity
and speech intelligibility exhibited by the Mackie
Industrial MR5S (black) and MR5SW (white) two-way
speaker systems.
The shielded low-frequency driver's carbon fiber
diaphragm remains extremely rigid at high power lev-
els, producing a linear response and low distortion.
The cone is fitted with a durable foam surround and
treated to resist moisture. The high-frequency section
features a 105° x 105° constant directivity horn with a
built-in mechanical phase equalizer. The horn is driven
by a Ferrofluid
®
cooled, 0.75" soft dome tweeter.
The system is nominally crossed over at 2.5kHz by
a 12 dB/octave network, which uses markedly lower
(than conventional) inductance values in series with
the woofer. This design reduces sound delays associ-
ated with high inductance values and provides excel-
lent low frequency transient response. The high-pass
section is corrected for optimum performance of the
CD horn and is protected with a circuit based on a low-
value/low-mass filament resistor that smoothly limits
the power sent to the tweeter driver.
All components are housed in a vented enclosure
formed from semi-expanded polystyrene foam that is
extremely strong, lightweight and weather resistant.
Threaded metal sockets are molded into the cabinet
to facilitate quick, safe deployment of the MR5S, as a
single unit or in arrays, using specially designed acces-
sory mounting hardware.
The MR5S is a part of Mackie Industrial’s Monitor
Series, which includes two-way constant directivity,
compact speakers in easily installed enclosures.

exclusive, one-time, NO FAULT repair policy in addition
to a five year limited warranty.
