Mackie THUMP GO Overview

Audio professionals looking for a truly portable and versatile speaker will appreciate this B&H Kit which combines the Mackie Thump Go with a custom carrying bag to create the primary components of a portable PA with protection from on-the-road wear and tear.

Mackie Thump Go 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker

Looking for a truly portable and versatile speaker for on-the-go sound applications? Then look no further than the Mackie Thump Go, an 8", portable, battery-powered loudspeaker with a 2-channel mixer and integrated DSP, great for singer/songwriters, busking, small club/band PA systems, boardrooms, A/V presentations, classrooms, or as a personal monitor for practice or performance.

The rear panel features two combo XLR-1/4" mic/line channels with dedicated gain controls, while an XLR output is provided for daisy-chaining additional speakers. For quick and easy setup, the integrated DSP provides four speaker mode presets (Music, Live, Monitor, and Sub). Simply select your application for the best sound.

Additionally, channel two can pair with any Bluetooth device for audio streaming and there is a link button, which will connect two Thump Gos together for stereo operation. Other features include an indoor/outdoor mode button, music ducking, which lowers the music volume when using a microphone, feedback extermination, and an LED on/off button which controls the LED on the front of the speaker.

use a condenser microphone possible? 48V

use a condenser microphone possible? 48V
Asked by: Raymond
No, the Mackie Thump Go 8" does not provide phantom power, which is required for condenser microphones. You would however be able to connect a condenser microphone if it is being fed through a mixer or phantom power supply such as B&H # XVP1.
