Recently Musician's Friend had the Mackie CRX-2 powered speakers on sale for $50 (reg. $179) a pair. I bought two pairs to experiment with for audio installations. They seem decent enough for their size and price but both are exhibiting a very inconvenient flaw. When playing music through them from my MacBook Air, even a moderate volume pop ballad, the sound completely cuts out when I try to get any decent volume level from them. It's like an overload protection kicking in way too early. Lights are still on, but no sound. Anyone else have these and seeing a similar problem, and maybe have a work-around? There's a firmware update available on the Mackie site but it can only be run from a PC, (I'm currently all Mac) and there is no indication what if any issues it addresses. Anyone know?
Ah, a fellow Ragnarok enjoyer. And appreciate the review, GH! 🤘
I have a Sony SRS-X55. It's a pretty compact speaker with INSANE sound quality. Idk if they sell em anymore though. It's a few years old..
Great job comrade !!!
Thank you Comarade! Hope you've been well
@@GamerHeavenOfficial I am good brother, been busy but I am OK
Liked the review but the "running man" and the green is part of Mackie's look.
Good review as always.

Hey GH! What's up? Do you pretend review the new gamesir G7 (Xbox/PC)? Really like your channel. Greetings from Brazil!
I'm definitely turning my audiophile nose up at these. But I am a big fan of Mackie's. Particularly their PA speakers and studio monitors.

Never toss out large desiccants like that, find a use for em! Especially if you live in a humid biome.
Recommend any good 4 paddle ps5 controllers with good warranty for the sticks
I’m number 6, my favorite number 😊😊
These look like half a speaker each.
Nobody reads manuals.
