CR4.5 studio monitors have the clear, accurate sound you need to produce and record music. With the tone knob turned all the way left, you get a flat frequency response for tracking and mixing. Crank the tone knob to the right to hear more bass and sparkle.
Location Switch
Flip the location switch between desktop speaker mode and bookshelf speaker mode to optimize CR4.5 for wherever you place them. Use desktop mode for listening up close (like in the studio) and bookshelf mode for listening at a distance (like from the couch).
Tone Control
Use the tone control knob to shape the sound, starting with the transparent response you expect from studio monitors. Turn the knob to gradually boost the bass and add high-end sparkle, perfect for using CR4.5 as immersive gaming speakers, casual listening speakers or all-out party speakers.
Inputs and Ouputs
Hook up audio interfaces, mixers, record players and other playback devices with TRS, RCA and 3.5 mm inputs. Switch to headphones with the built-in headphone output - just connect your headphones to cut the speaker audio and listen quietly.
