Key Features

Powered reference monitors — The CR5 XBT speakers have built-in amplification, so you don’t need a separate external amplifier to drive them. Good for simple stereo setups or small rooms.

5″ woofer + 1″ tweeter (approx.) — A typical compact driver configuration aimed at delivering balanced mids/highs and decent low-mid response — useful for music, multimedia, or desktop audio.

Bluetooth connectivity + wired input options — Lets you stream music wirelessly via Bluetooth from your phone, tablet, or laptop; also supports standard wired input for high-fidelity sources.

Suitable for small to medium rooms / desktop / near-field listening — Compact size and reference-monitor tuning make them ideal for workspaces, small living rooms, home studios, or casual listening environments.

Stereo pair ready out-of-the-box — As a matched pair, you can set up left/right stereo sound immediately without matching or pairing issues.

Plug-and-play convenience — Because they are powered and have built-in amp + Bluetooth, setup is simpler than passive speakers + separate amp — great for those who want decent sound without complex wiring.

Studio-Quality Sound

Premium woofers and tweeters, high-headroom amplifiers, and all-wood enclosures—this is what professional sound is made of. Don’t let the compact size fool you. CR5-XBT studio monitors deliver clean, accurate sound for bedroom studios and gaming setups alike.

Sleek Cosmetics

Sounding great is only half the battle—your multimedia monitors should reflect your style too. The sharp aesthetic of CR5-XBT monitors looks great in the studio, the bedroom, or any home listening setup. Be bold and make it loud without sacrificing style.

Control It

No one likes having to dig around for monitor controls. That’s why we put a volume control and power switch right on the front. Toggle the speaker placement switch to change which side of the desk you want the volume knob on. Your creative space is a personal command center. We’re just giving you better tools to control it.

Flexible Inputs

We wouldn’t limit you to just one input type! CR5-XBT monitors have 1/4“, 1/8“, and RCA inputs for added versatility. With so many options, you can connect an audio interface, turntable, smartphone or media player all at once.

Got Headphones?

So, your mix sounds great through your studio monitors. Now what? Get a second perspective of your mix using the front-facing headphone jack. Listening through the headphones jack automatically turns off output from the monitors—no need to twist knobs or pull faders.

It’s All About the Bass

Treat yourself to some extra bass. CR-X monitors have polypropylene woofers and rear-firing ports for tight bass response, but if you really want to shake the block, add the CR8S-XBT. The matching subwoofer is driven by a 200W amplifier and 8” high-output woofer for a deep low-end punch.

Cut the Cord

In addition to our standard inputs, CR5-XBT monitors feature Bluetooth connectivity to make it easy to listen to music instantly, without a mess of extra wires. Just hold down the Running Man icon and let the Bluetooth magic do the rest.
