Mackie Thump215 15" 1400W Powered Loudspeaker with Heavy-Duty Drivers and Music Ducking Mode

For starters I'm not a DJ. Sort of but not really. I used these to play music for my kids swim teams, to entertain the crowd while everyone is warming up, and we use them for announcing heats/events. I am however an audiophile. I did some research for non expensive speakers that I could use a few months out of the year, something that sounds good both indoors and out, and something that could be heard when we're talking or playing music. Needless to say these fit the bill. I got two of them, not knowing that one of them was really needed because of the power, but the 2nd speaker is an added bonus for the people a half mile away who want to hear what we're listening to. What I love is that you can connect these via either XLR or 1/4 from a mixer and it will still sound great. They're not really heavy either, the handles on the side help too. They're great when you put them on a dolly and don't move around or fall off. I also like that you don't even need a mixer to connect the speakers to a device and can go directly into them, and then XLR to the output to another speaker. The only con I can think of is the 6ft cables they give you, when have them on a speaker stand. I ended up buying 15ft cables so I don't have a surge protector hanging off of the speaker stand. But that's about it.

This speaker sounds great. I do stand-up comedy at bars and small theatres the Mackie Thump215 works great, deep rich sound and plenty of volume.

I’ve been really digging Mackie lately. When I first started getting into DJing and sound, a lot of people kind of looked down on the brand like it was the “cheap” option. But after using this speaker and a few other Mackies, I honestly have no complaints. It sounds great, performs reliably, and I don’t think there’s much of a difference to other big names like QSC and EV. Definitely recommend if you’re building out your setup and want something dependable.

I got a very good deal on these at $340 each, so it might affect my thoughts some. But they're excellent for parties and events where loud music is needed. We had a serious barn banger in August with just 2 of the 4 I bought and people are still talking about how awesome it was in December. They are only slightly less good at low-med volume, due to noise, if you dial it in with good gain staging. Otherwise they can rough at low volumes. That said, they're very clear for the price, and I love that. I ended up keeping 2 in the music studio and putting 2 in our basement bar. They work perfectly for karaoke and bar level music.

I bought two of these to upgrade from the Pyle all in one set up I was using as I built up a rep as a djay. I have to say these are leaps and bounds beyond what I was using even though the Pyle system was sufficient for smaller indoor events and localized outdoor events. Pros: Light weight for the size and multiple place to carry from ( 2 handles & a lip on top) Sound is loud and clean even with bass heavy tracks. They look nice and have two 3 connection ports (1 xlr) Independent knobs to control levels of different channels. Cons: Power cables are really short

The Mackie Thump212 is an outstanding powered speaker that delivers big sound. Sound Quality: Clear, loud, and deep bass—perfect for DJs, live events, or parties. Power: 1,400 watts provide plenty of volume for medium to large spaces. Durability: Rugged build that can handle frequent transport and tough conditions. Ease of Use: Simple controls and lightweight for a speaker this powerful. Versatility: Great for music, speeches, and more with multiple input options. Overall, it’s a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a reliable and powerful speaker. Highly recommended for professionals and casual users alike!

Love this product! I use it with a Zoom Bass multi-FX pedal as a preamp and it sounds great. For the wattage and weight (35lbs) you can’t get a dedicated bass rig this good for under a grand. And if you need more volume, you just get two. Plug and play. It is a 700 watt RMS (1400 watts is peak, not what the Class D amp will put out continuously) system biamped internally with 100 watts RMS to the high frequency driver and 600 to the 15 LF. The crossover is at 2kHz. The high frequency driver is horn loaded so the midrange smooths out quite a bit. Really good low-mid frequency response. Probably 60Hz @ 0 dB, which is the second harmonic of the low B on most 5 strings and the frequency you actually HEAR versus feel in bass. Look up psychoacoustics if you want to learn more about that. Can get a bit boom-y with some settings in some rooms, but EQ in my preamp solves that. For reference, on my SVT model, I cut bass by -3, Mids 0, Treble -3 and just roll my tone knob for taste on that. Mid notch is 350 hz or there abouts. This is for a practice room that houses keys, vocal PA, drums, guitars, etc. For a stage, without PA support, I’d use two. With PA, I’d put one down as a monitor for myself. Edit: newer model has more power and is even lighter.

Sounds great with tonex and helix guitar processes. I wanted a versatile powered speaker for guitar, electronic drums, vocals, and just music play back. This speaker has been great for all that. Guitar patches need to have bass lowered a bit since this 15 inch speaker drives a bit heavier bass but that is what I expected. It does make a bit of a popping sound on b startup but doesn't seem loud enough to damage anything. So far, love this speaker for my uses.

Je suis très satisfait du son , y sont fait pour faire leur job . Seul point négatif avec amazone c’est quand tu achète un produit et 2 jours après ton achat par le même vendeur son moin cher , es ou l’exactitude des prix au Québec . Ou bien même des fois tu veut racheter le même item et wow le pris à augmenter de 400$ en 24h pour quoi ??? Mais pour le son woww avec Mackie .

Excellent product with great sound quality. Bought for prayer hall.

Good using for Church nice quality sound

Really worth

Compré un par de estas y dos subwoofer para mi escuela, Soy el Director. Quería algo de calidad que le diera un sonido de calidad para eventos al aire libre, y resultó mucho mejor de lo que esperaba. Una calidad, potencia y nitidez que no dudó en recomendar, con los volúmenes a la mitad en las 4 bocinas (2 medios y 2 graves), me es más que suficiente.
