The spike lee intro was FIRE!!!! Great job CT. I see I left the game in good hands!
That was a great intro! You are going to help Mackie sell more of these. It sounds like it will be a great option for remote sound. Flexibility is priceless, and I see this bailing us out more than we could ever know.
Loved the intro, "Paper or Plastic" LOL. Its so sad that "Top of the Line" speaker companies did not come out with this. Those Thumps look awesome and replaceable batteries is genius.
I didn't really get the "paper or plastic" thing? Is it a drug reference? I assume it's when people abuse drugs like alcohol in the American movies but it seems so out of place haha! 🌈
You must be young. 🤷🏾♂️
Brought two a month ago and I love them for all the same reasons you do. Oh and I always use two speakers, one on each side at all my ceremonies too. I'm deeply in vested in my wireless lapel mics so I believe in that extra steps so every spoken word is crystal clear on both sides. Maybe that's the old schol in us, almost 40 years in the DJ game and still knocking down over 120 weddings a year plus sound gigs.
Do you use a DJ controller? How do the speakers connect to your DJ system? I’m not grasping the concept of say, using Serato and then having the music play on your wireless speakers. Thx
@@gregorycanady2868 I use XLR cables but you can go wireless but I wouldn't trust BT at a gig
@@masterpdj2623 I tend to agree. Too many things can go wrong to stop the flow and the mix. I’d feel comfortable with cocktail hr or just BS time. But mixing, vows, bride walking down the aisle, etc is too risky because of cutouts, popping, etc.
Your intro was a perfect way to introduce that product. The length of the intro was perfec, and the skit itself was perfect.
R.I.P. Radio Raheem.
Great intro...love it.
Oh my God I love the initial skit subscribing just for that humor
Thought the beginning video was very ingenious, got a good laugh out of it.. didn't know there was a blue tooth speaker that could be used as this one can.. may be worth looking into..
CT stepping his game up with the intro…love it my dude and very original take
Perfect timing. I was looking for a battery powered option and I trust Mackie. Great video. I'm getting a pair.
Bought 4 of these due to this great review and use them several times a week, the battery lasts as they say Uve run these 4-5 hours and the battery has never comeoff of the green , they are very loud and clear, I run them with a behringer battery powered mixer which is hard yo find, bluetooth and linking works when using 2 speakers, the only thing I see to improve these is give them more gain in the mic setting when plugging directky in. The bluetooth works separate from the 3.5 mm jack ! I bought 4 spare batteries but will probably never need them!
Loved the intro!!!! 5***** on the Thump GO. I have been using it for ceremonies and cocktails the entire fall season and I LOVE it!! Its perfect for that application.
It has also become my go to for the garage and im sure this spring/summer it will live by the pool and beach!!!
Loved the intro!!, I wish the Numark Mix Stream Pro was battery operated, it would be the ideal setup for my wife.
Love the production of this video. The skit was great
Looks like a pretty solid speaker! I just got a Soundboks 3 to use for battery ceremonies as well as boat parties with my Denon GO and an RCA to SKAA connection. I do like the ability to adjust the EQ on the app, cool that Mackie has that too.
Been waiting for a good portable speaker to come from Mackie, love what I'm seeing in this speaker!
Great video intro, Once again you knock it out the park with the video and info on the speaker.
You are the man. I really enjoy your gear reviews the best. Thank you for the work and effort you put into your channel. I need two of these and a prime go for the ultimate portable setup!
Much Respect For This Clip!!!
R. I. P Radio Raheem 📻📻⚰️
Bro.. this was brilliant!! Cleveland Terry, You killed it with the radio Raheem cameo
Man you got me on that intro. Great review and video as always
I love that beginning thats old school from my old hood. That movie takes me back. Great one terry ❤️👍🏻😎

Yessir..I'm soo glad u did this...... saw this on my visit to ny for Thanksgiving and wanted to visit idjnow store...I saw at store for first time..tested it...and I knew for next weddings I would use for ceremony and cocktail....plannedon purchasing next month .but hearing from u....yessir
LOVE the idea of replaceable batteries…. That is an epic feature! I’m curious what your thoughts are on the sound output between the Mackie Thumps vs JBL Eon Compacts, etc. Thanks!
I love this speaker but a few things people should know: no reverb, no ability to update firmware in the future, EQ on App makes zero difference to sound, Bluetooth ability is lost if you XLR out to sub only works if hardwired in. I guess these downsides are why it is only $400.
IEC cable is what that standard electric computer power cable is called. Great videos!!!!!!!!!
Loved how you spin Do the Right Thing 😂😂. I have a Bose S1 Pro but wanted to get one more remote speaker. Thanks for your review!
great review! I was looking for JBL, Bose and other brands, and this video really helped me finalize my decision, subbed!
Great video, respect!!!
great job on the skit that was genius Brotha lol thanks for the review as well !!!
I was considering buying the Bose S1 speaker to use as a ceremony speaker and one to just take to little get togethers. But i may go for this instead. It being $250 cheaper is a big plus and im sure their replacememnt batteries are cheaper than what Bose sells.
Skit was good BTW. I like the jacket.
Great intro, none of the other vloggers have talent like you! I already bought a couple Eon Compacts though it has like the same SPL something like 112dbs. But the mackie is cool, kinda a day late and a dollar short time wise.
😁 In that intro, CT reminded me of Prince Akeem & Semi "dressing as New Yorkers" in Coming To America! 👑🗽
The intro was awesome thanks for another great review thanks terry. Also makie stepped up their game recently whoop whoop
CT this skit had me smiling. Thank you for that. 🙏🏼
I like the progressions of solutions, I had a Behringer MBPA100BT, 100W. We moved up to the JBL Eon Compact at ~120w and better sound. I see this has a Class D 200w amp, that is a huge increase and comes in at ~200 less. I like that, at least from a business standpoint. I could see using 2 of these at a ceremony.
Love the skit! Great review! How far apart can they be before the link start to fail?
Great question and I was thinking the same.
The intro earned a sub , great work !
Thanks for subbing
V.l.c. has the loudest equalizer pre- amp for a media player i can find for last few years, only thing is it doesnt work for streaming apps volume.
The intro is legit
i loved the skit. i would like to get a pair of the Thump Go's. It would be perfect for my band setup as monitors.
Intro was excellent
Love the intro lol
Easily the best review on this speaker ive seen. Props man, subbed.
Glad to have you.
Loved the skit, very funny! Ah yes in a perfect world, I live in Australia and the going price is $899 for one, can I bunk out in your studio for a week so I can go shopping!
lol.......lol...... i love tha intro. super duper!!!!!! next review comparison to the yorkville exm and the maui
YES!...Great Intro....gotta get the speaker(1)😃
Butter knife, the duct tape of screwdrivers! Always saves the day!!
Great video Terry, personally I would not touch any Mackie gear with a 10 foot barge pole
I still run an old Mackie power amp and big boxes. Not changing any time soon
Ok. :-)
DOOOOOOOOPE SKIT.
20 d energizers. Lmfao. Remember the days walking around with my JVC boom box in the Bronx. Wow has technology improved
yo that intro was dope brother lol
The front LED Light Stays on, even when I switch mines off.
BEST F’N INTRO EVER SIR!!!!!!!!!
Great intro and helpful review
CT going Hollywood- 🔥
Play recorded music thru one channel at a decent volume. Turn the individual gain knob to that channel all the way down. What do you hear? I still hear music on mine! Lowered but still there. Track faders on all my other mixers/combo amps completely cut channel audio to speakers when set to the off position. How's your Go working??
Cheerz brother!
I have this idea of throwing djsets on random places that i find interesting and get inspiration from.. mostly remote spaces / sceneries as i travel the world..
People in front of me ranging from 0 to a few people each time..
Question:::
I'm thinking of pairing them with 2x 115s as well (23kg each and i play many low end music).. That combo seems great in my case for it's portability / performance ratio!
How about that?? any opinions as a potential combo since you had them both?
Question 2:::
Mackie just dropped the price of the 118s at the same as the 115s...
If i get 2x 118s instead i sacrifice some portability (29+kg) but i'll have bigger low end, plus the opportunity to get some 15'' full range PAs in the future.. maybe the Thump15XTs.. which is something i do consider.
Do you think pairing the 18 subs with these 8 inch speakers is an ok move?? or is the size / power too different to exist as a combo? maybe it will suffer from massive holes in the midrange or something?
Something tells me i should just shut my brainz and be happy with the 115's right?
Thanks in advance!!
Looks promising.. I already have the GO and the (I use wireless guitar 1/4) so this would be great.
Question: I know it's 200w, but what about SLP?
Are they loud enough?
Do The Right Thing!!
Intro was dope man. How's the latency when going wireless like that?
Pretty negligible on Bluetooth.
Mackie manage to fix the app for this speaker? Not many good reviews about the app that I can find.
I love the intro
Giving you a thumbs up just for skit alone 😆🤣😂.
It's a 8" monitor nothing under 100 hz.
When connected via bluethoot there is no output in line out
Hello ! Music on bluetooth and a guitar at the same time can sound? What would play under the backing tracks and sing into the microphone
Would you please do a side by side with the Thump Go and the Bose S1. Great review. Thanks!
I don’t have an s1
Any thoughts on this, or any other battery powered speaker, compared to the newly released everse 8?
Can you hardwire one with xlr and send to the 2nd wirelessly? Got a pair but no luck so far maybe I'm missing something
Thump go vs soundboks Cleveland which you prefer and why?
Hi, may I ask is it possible for using 2 microphones ( 2 singers) with the Music playing ( from android phone) at the same time ? Thanks!
One thing to know is which Bluetooth technology these use. If it's AptX LL, it may be suitable for DJ mixing use... which would make them more valuable.
U r da man Cleveland!
Great video. I'm actually in the market for a new setup of smaller PAs with a sub. I've been eyeballing the Yamaha Stagepas 600BT since it's so compact and easy to transport. But this is now on the list for consideration. If you had to choose between the two or something similar to the Yamaha and the Mackie, which way would you consider? My events are usually around 100 people or so. Nothing more. What do you think? I'm not so concerned about the system being battery powered or wireless as a must have feature. But it's nice to have.
👏 😂😂🤣 very funny editing 👌 great review ❤
Just out of curiosity, would you connect these up to, lets say 15" Subs and have a quality sound?
Only thing mackie i ever used is the mixing boards.
Do the right thing!
Perfect intro 👍👍👍
Outstanding intro 😎👍🏻
Skit got an instant like from me, was wondering how many ways it could handle, I'm a busker but I'm also a Bassist, so I was looking around for something under 500 that I could run a hot active signal through and be able to keep up with a loud acoustic on a busy street
The speaker is pretty loud.
Great video. So can you use these along with other speaker brands (QSC). Any problems with interference and/or dropouts?
Just bought me one for Christmas, trying to make my wife buy me the other...it does sound good
Can anyone recommend a wireless XLR device I can use with these speakers and the Denon prime Go so I am totally Wireless. Thanks
Super Dope Intro!!!!
Good review! Would this work well for karaoke?
I used a pair at a remote ceremony, along with Rode Wireless go 2, and an ipad pro running algoriddim djay pro. The commissioner loved simple set up of the Rode GO2, and so did I. First time I've sat in the congregation, making it all seem to happen out of nowhere. One thing I learnt was that the bluetooth device (in this case the ipad) controls the overall volume of the [music in this case] bluetooth input. But cable free and pretty clean set up. I did get a lot of comments from vendors on how simple, clean and effective it all was. I will be making this the go to ceremony rig.
Nice!
I got the jl eon one compacts about a year and a half ago. They have a fantastic tweeter but that's about it. I have been disappointed with them. I felt like I wasted 1200. I'm looking at these or the yorkville exm 8 now. I might go eon one mk2 if it sounds good but 2 of these might be the trick.
Eon MK2 in another league!
@@WWeiss-nv5vz exm 8 with the sub probably beats it but more set up.
@@chrishaney1954 EXM Sub at 100 watts/175 watts peak does not sound like it will be a very good performer. In comparison my RCF 702 12" sub puts out 700 watts RMS/1,400 peak. Bose Sub1 480 watts
@@WWeiss-nv5vz wattage isn't really that important. Sensitivity ratings, and box design have more to do with it. More watts is better but it depends on the sub and enclosure it is going into.
@@chrishaney1954 Maybe but in this case the EXM sub is a small enclosure at 30lbs with not much internal volume. I have a very similar sized AC sub, a Fishman SA Sub300. At 300 watts it adds a tight musical low end but nothing like a dedicated 10 or 12" sub. Plus the EXM sub is pricey at $670! Fishman is $400. EXM top is also expensive at $720. I'll stick with my QSC k8.2 I know these speakers are not battery powered:(
Wish they had a Sub too
Loved it...
For skit.. Well done.. & as usual great review video
Comparing it with the Soundboks which is the best buy for dj's Mr. Terry can you tell us sir thank you 💯🏴🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🇪🇺
Solid!
Props on the intro!
I use the K8.2 for ceremony
You think this is similar? Like the battery option.
Do you recommend I should get this?
I have both. K8.2 much louder, EQ, no battery. Mackie lighter, less $$$
skit was awesome!...lol
Are these good enough to use as Studio Monitors? How would they compare to HR824's or the newer MR824's. Considering replacing my Yamaha HS8's with a pair of these and a Mackie Powered Sub. On occasion I would take one or two of these out, to the beach for example but main use would be as studio monitors.
Think they would be good in this type of scenario?
Great Intro… nice review
So creative, but I was hoping to hear it thump even through a microphone at various volume levels.
Check tomorrow
@@ClevelandTerry Cool, I'm there.
