[@folksp6532]

Hi what speaker is the original or the source?

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

Keep in mind that a down slope on the in-room measurement is wanted rather than a flat neutral line. Anything flat on the in-room response will sound overly bright. In this case, the Edifier does a better job, especially in those crucial areas from 1khz - 7khz.

[@altssdev8429]

thank you very much for this comparison, it's exactly what I was waiting for

[@GustavoTrixi]

MR4 has a built in DSP. It makes the drivers sounding better by compensating non linear parts of the curve. Obviously, MR4 sounds better than a non DSP corrected speaker. Its not about the price, its about technology.

[@morellasgeorgios8449]

that adds latency if you use these for tracking with a synth or guitar plugin which is something many people will do. Then you don't know if the mackie do the same as well. Sony has been doing it since the 90s. Anything with a Bluetooth or optical in has a dac and chip insode by default.

[@emromw]

Is there any source for the claim that these have a DSP? And also how much latency it adds?

[@morellasgeorgios8449]

@@emromw try to find a forum that opened it.

[@R020777]

Considering that all can be corrected with some equalization,if MR4 has no hiss sound when idle is a better choice,is newer and with more features.I own CR4's...

[@Ryoga2K]

Lol the sound balance is way more accurate on the mr4s wasn't expecting that. So they are a good option for mixing from what i see

[@lilchvrles]

These mr4s are crazy accurate 😳

[@Lon1001]

They seem very precise to the original track through my earbuds, they add no character whatsoever and they don't quite deliver the bass. The CR4s OTOH give the tone a little warmth and resonance and hit a little deeper that the MR4s. MR4s would be great for mixing music but the mackies nicer for listening on.

[@tdaccesssam8844]

Bought mr4 crap Chinese product, muffled sound.😊😮

[@px7355]

waiting on the presonus e4.5 vs mr 4

[@ChrisBessy]

il loooove my eris 4.5 but often my mix sound perfect on my eris and too close on other systems. For the rest, they have so much emotions in the sound....

[@rosskelly8268]

Wow. It's close! If I had to pick - and it's really so close - but Mackie has a touch more breadth/depth to the sound. But that might just be because the Mackie has a bit of a bass bump of 3 - 4 db, and actually is slightly less linear than the Edifier. If there was more than say $40 price difference I'd just get the Edifier.

[@반걸음-d4s]

I bought MR4 57.5$. Is this good buying enough?

[@geron0041]

Overall i think edifiers are better but CR4-X have more boomy bass if you like it you may consider them. Not a huge difference between them.

[@djrobtech]

Focal Alpha Evo 80s vs Tannoy Gold 8s please!

[@jedics1]

Just bought the MR4's and going by the charts here I doubt I would like the Mackie's as the mr4's are already on the fatiguing side.....Which is why Im here still looking as I want something a little more powerful for tv room use, the mr4's are good for the money but when you have heard truly transparent speakers its hard to settle for less.

[@OmniZen8118]

Note that the left & right channels of both pairs of speakers here have been reversed, with the result that natural 3D stereo imaging & realism is lost during music playback and both pairs of speakers are not really sounding at their best. The speaker having volume, bass & treble controls and input/power indicator is known as the active speaker. This is the right channel speaker and should be positioned on the right, while the other speaker without similar controls and indicator is the passive speaker which plays the the left channel and should therefore be positioned on the left. It is absolutely vital to ensure correct placement of left and right speakers to enjoy your music or movies. Otherwise you'll find the car whizzing by on the left of your TV monitor screen, while the sound effect is coming from the right speaker. If you own any pair of stereo speakers you should always verify their correct placement by playing back left/right stereo channel test videos available on KZbin.

[@BigCarso]

Or just switch the cables.. For music tests it makes zero difference

[@musicselecta5554]

MR4 is a winners 🏆🏆🏆!!

[@REZANOV]

hello. please tell me. in 6 square meters, what to take 4 inches 5 or 6? I had a jbl 305 mkii - does it make sense to take a yamaha msp 3 instead? or is it better to have a behringer 2030a? or is there nothing better than jbl 305 in this range?

[@sumit55z]

Mr4 is bit better in highs n vocals

[@djthamlas_tbs]

Not a fair fight, definitely more micro detail on the MR4. also better tuning

[@DrMurdercock]

I own the Mackies, I am sure these are pretty much about the same thing. All these are probably alol made at the same china factory anyway, just like car parts, music gear, phones, glasses, etc. I can say that these aren't like high end monitors, these are more all-around speakers that work well as monitors. Meaning, they won't hiss(shouldnt) and they do not filter out all the low end, these things thump and have clear highs. Worth the price for sure. I'd say both speakers are worth it, the Edi's are even cheaper so, I'd say if you're thinking about it, hop on it before prices sky rocket

[@joseguera7526]

@DSAUDIOreview cual elijes tu

[@terrygreen6088]

can you please make a video comparing desk stands like the isoacoustics stands and the fluid audio stands ?? i heard there should be a big difference thats worth testing

[@GuillaumeB7]

The only Mackie in that range that are a great deal are the CR8.

[@thediedur27]

were they at max volume?

[@Youtuber-ko]

In terms of sound resolution scores, MACKIE has a slight edge. However, Edifier provides almost similar level of sound at a price four times cheaper than MACKIE.

[@zhgfng]

where are you seeing 4x the price, they're priced pretty similarly

[@Youtuber-ko]

@@zhgfng I just saw for the first time that Edifier sells for about $130 on Amazon. Where I live, a company called Britz imports Edifier from other countries for about $50. But MACKIE sells for about $195 where I live. This is probably because my area uses 220 volt outlets.

I love my Mackies 524, but prefer MR4 against this CR-X.

[@ChrisBessy]

hello, i tried the mr524 ..... looks cool and sounds good. But always my mixes in my car sound horrible lol. You think the CR4X are better ?

[@sinlokemp]

Finally bought MR4 after watching your comparison. for the Price and looks MR4 in white is simply beautiful and yes it sound excellent.

[@BrunzarC40]

Do you recommend I buy them?

[@sinlokemp]

@@BrunzarC40 yes bro if you are on a budget.

[@ChrisBessy]

for good monitors under 200 ..... wich one ?

[@dawoud8013]

for me Mackie is better. But if you like add clear highs in your mixes, maybe better go with the MR4. Avoid you to add too much highs if you were mixing with the MAckie !

[@diego_jause]

I don't know... in my Presonus Eris e4.5 everything sounds great ja 😝 ✨🔊✨❤🙌🙌🙌

i have eris too ..... but maybe this mr4 is more flat ? ......

Would you please make a video comparing Kali lp6 and krk rokit 7 cuz I'm very much confused between them.....hope you understand 🔥

[@lvymusic]

EDIFIER have more clarity on mid and high frequency. on my opinion

[@vandethvoy8183]

Mackie sound more powerful with high bass but mid and high not clear Cz Mackie response 65hz -20kz while Edifier respond 60hz - 20hz abit more deep bass respond

[@MackoyStudio]

MR4 has more details and clarity.

[@dawoud8013]

yes but too much highs compared to the original track. Edit : not so... finally...

[@R0CKAFELLA]

@@dawoud8013 how would you know what's the accurate sound?

[@dawoud8013]

@@R0CKAFELLA comparing with the original track @2:49. But finally the highs seems to be ok, lack a bit of mid-high may be. But finally, it depend on how you mix in the real life. If you tend to add to much high because you love clear sound, buy monitors with clear and crisp highs. it will avoid you some mistakes in your mixes when you add to much high because it's your way of mixing while your actual monitors lake a bit of highs ^^

[@Dreaming-11]

I prefer the MR4, but both sound like toys.

[@Tephnos]

What does that even mean

[@ares23dc]

@@Tephnos It means they sound like cheap speakers. You remember the 90's? When the market was flooded by Chinese knock-offs? These 2 sound exactly like those. At least, if you get cheap sound, pay cheap as well, like for Edifier 1280. You can't fault those for that price.

[@Tephnos]

@@ares23dc Sounds like a huge exaggeration tbh. The MR4s (at least here) are only 10-20 bucks more than the 1280's and measure better as well on ASR (in music mode). Not perfect, but hard to fault for the price especially with how well they accept EQ.

[@ChrisBessy]

@@Tephnos for the price, eris 4.5 are more flat ?
