Mackie Thump212XT 12" 1,400W Enhanced Powered Loudspeaker With Bluetooth & EQ Voicing

The Mackie Thump212XT powered loudspeaker is the next evolution of the best-selling series that immediately won over scores of DJs, bands and singer-songwriters—as well as sound engineers for houses of worship, theaters and corporate events—with high-performance features and affordable prices. Mackie has upgraded the entire Thump line with a meticulous redesign of power capability, woofers and drivers, gig-optimizing controls and additional speaker options. The full range now includes Thump 12" and 15" models, enhanced ThumpXT variations (also in 12" and 15" speaker sizes), and two Thump subwoofers (15" and 18"). There’s a big bonus to making the Thump212XT part of your live-performance system, as it provides exclusive features not offered on the other speakers in the series. First, you get four selectable voicing modes optimized for specific applications—music playback, conventional sound reinforcement, club environments and floor-monitor use. Then, an indoor/outdoor button lets you toggle between EQ presets designed for club interiors and out-in-the-wild spaces. The Thump212XT also provides Bluetooth connectivity for streaming music, controlling EQ and other features (via the Thump Connect 2 App) and wirelessly linking together two ThumpXT speakers.

Rock the Room

The upgraded, 2-channel Thump212XT delivers 1,400 watts of Class-D power at a maximum sound-pressure level of 128dB—plenty of headroom to keep sounds clear and pristine, whether you’re pumping up the groove for a wedding reception, wildly strumming an acoustic guitar during a crescendo, or keeping vocals upfront and present over a band’s instrumental mix. More power means that every nuance from every instrument and vocal can be accurately reproduced with no audible distortion, gritty signal compression, or mushy tone. The Thump212XT includes a heavy-duty 1" compression driver and a high-performance 12" woofer that produce a balanced soundscape across the system’s 47Hz–20kHz frequency response.

XT Means Extras

The Thump212XT offers exclusive features that make it even easier to dial in awesome live sound. Just by pushing a button, you can automatically modify the Thump212XT's EQ to accommodate a specific venue or application. Four voicing modes are provided: Music (tailored for prerecorded audio tracks), Live (designed for general sound-reinforcement), Club (adds low-end emphasis for DJs and bands desiring increased bass content in their sound) and Monitor (optimizes the Thump212XT for use as a floor-monitor wedge with an added feedback-fighting setting). This is another timesaving, set-up-and-play feature that can erase the frustration of having to adjust a sound system to work with a new room environment. It’s the same strategy for the Thump212XT’s Indoor/Outdoor modes. Many musicians can handle tuning a system for an interior venue, but everything changes when you bring a performance out into the great wide open (no walls, no ceilings, wind affecting sound-dispersion patterns, bass frequencies resonating differently, etc.). The Thump212XT solves that dilemma with a push of its Outdoor Mode button, automatically restoring the sound you’re used to hearing in a club. 

Tranquil Transport

Here’s a tip: Less setup stress, the more energy available for your performance. To that end, the Thump212XT weighs just 29.3 lb., and provides two large handles for carrying the speaker as a solo act, as well as other easy-grip surfaces if anyone lends a hand. Mackie’s Built-Like-A-Tank construction always has your back if fatigue brings on a case of the dropsies, or even if an impatient band mate knocks the cabinet off the stage while moving their gear.

Sonic XT-C

The enhanced features of the Thump212XT provide a near-comprehensive sound-reinforcement solution for DJs, solo artists and bands. Also taking into account its affordable pricing, the redesigned Thump series offers an unbeatable fusion of power, portability, reliability, signal processing and bang for buck.
