Mackie MC-250 Reviews

Sound Great and Very Comfortable

By Murray
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2021-08-19

First, I'm 58, used to run sound (very loud) decades ago for a local rock band. So, I know my hearing isn't what it should be. With that in mind you can take my review knowing I am incapable of being an audiophile. That being said, these sound great! Nice, but even sound throughout the human hearing range. I have an above average size head and average size ears for a man and they fit perfectly. Very comfortable for long editing sessions.

Good Mid Range Headset

By Robert

These headphones put out a good clean sound and fold up in to a very small footprint for when I am on the go. I use them the most as an audio monitor in the field when recording for video shoots. Be careful of the connection of the wire into the base of the headset itself as that seems to be an issue I might have soon from just the first few months of using it I notice is that if I even touch the cord near the headset now there is reactive feedback, but I would buy them again for the same use. Not the best headphones I’ve ever had but perfect for what I need.

You can contact the manufacturer directly to purchase an ear pad replacement kit for the Mackie MC-250 Closed-Back Over-Ear Reference Headphones. I believe the part number is 2052278-00.
