Mackie HR-626 Dual 2-Way Studio Monitor HR626 Mackie Studio Monitors-Active Studio Monitors Studio & Recording 
With more and more recording studios
mixing to 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound, the need arose
for a studio monitor that could handle some serious multi-tasking.
Say hello to the Mackie HR626 - a THX-approved, 2-way
Active reference monitor that provides the same accuracy of Mackie's
HR824. When placed vertically, the HR626 has the same great
sound and similar frequency response as our legendary HR824, with
a smaller footprint. Also, due to its symmetrical left-right sound
field, the Mackie HR626 is perfect as a center channel
monitor for surround sound mixing or for high-end home theater
applications. With extremely even dispersion for a wide "sweet
spot" and user-adjustable controls for a variety of acoustic spaces,
the HR626 is found in hundreds of professional studios and
in the home studios of top recording artists. D'APPOLITO
DESIGN? Some years ago, renowned audio engineer Joe D'Appolito
started placing a single woofer on each side of the
HF transducer, and using a third-order (or higher) crossover in
his designs. The end result - proper phase control of
the loudspeaker and the low frequency response was extended. Mackie
decided to use Joe's design principles for one simple reason-they
work! That's why the Mackie HR626 has a 6.7" woofer
on each end of the cabinet with a waveguide-loaded dome
tweeter stuck right the center. The HR626 is the first
Mackie Active studio monitor to incorporate D'Appolito design. MACKIE ACTIVE
DESIGN The 100- and 40-watt FR (Fast Recovery) Series
amplifiers inside the HR626 are clean, ultra-reliable - and most
importantly, were specifically designed for these drivers. Mackie's amps can
drive these custom-tailored transducers to their limits without pushing them
over the edge. Add to this Mackie's phase- and time-correction
crossover and you've got one excellent sounding Active monitor. Frequency
response is verifiably "ruler-flat" from 42Hz to 20kHz, with a
3dB down point at 40Hz. The Mackie HR626 is ideal
for those who need lots of bottom-end and high-resolution midrange
for mixing and vocal placement. THUMPIN' BASS Ask any
bass player and they will tell you that smaller speakers
respond to transient attacks much more quickly than their huge
counterparts. (As long as they are designed to handle bass
frequencies, that is.) That having been said, instead of using
a single large woofer in the HR626, Mackie chose to
use two of their powerhouse 6.7" transducers (the same ones
used in the HR624). Not only does this help the
HR626 meet the D'Appolito design concept, dual LF drivers also
move a larger column of air. Add to this Mackie's
mass-loaded, rear-firing passive radiator and you've got extended low-end that
just won't quit. WAVEGUIDE-LOADED TWEETER That unusual looking tweeter
is actually Mackie's waveguide-mounted 1" aluminum dome HF transducer. (Try
to say that five times fast.) The logarithmic waveguide works
with the tweeter to ensure accurate, even dispersion of the
high-frequency content, creating a
