soffit mounting Mackie hr824s
Posted: Sat Jul 09, 2005 7:33 am
I contacted Mackie service about soffit mounting their 824's and this was my reply.
Generally soffit mounted speakers are tuned for the specific room with equalizers and other acoustic tools. In some cases rooms have been designed with specific speakers in mind beforehand. In either case the monitors used are not those designed for near field applications. Your best bet is to use sand filled monitor stands or something similar.
Hope this helps.

Anyone have another opinion on this. I am looking for active speakers to soffit mount in my new room.
