Mackie Thumps are powered PA speakers that need no introduction. Since their initial release over a decade ago, they have been the choice for many peoples' first PA system. Mackie continues to refine the Thump line, with the newest models offering more power and sleeker design than their predecessors. The speaker I have today, the Mackie Thump 212XT, is an upgraded version of the normal Thump with more built-in effects and features, Bluetooth capability, and even rigging points for flying. It's a super portable, easy to use speaker that I'm very happy to have in my arsenal.

Thanks for watching! I just released a video on my new favorite affordable studio monitors for 2023: ruclips.net/video/UfvlfL-aPfY/видео.html
Just bought a pair. Matched with my 18 thump sub. Replaced my 15a tops. Doing my first gig tonight with them. An outdoor wedding in Georgetown Colorado. Wish my luck! Straight outta the box!
Nice demo and review! Well organized and very nicely supported. Well done indeed!
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching.
Very clear and professional video mate. Thank you : - )
Thanks a bunch! Appreciate you watching.
@@fayzereviews Hello dear Fayze,
Sorry to bother you but,
I just got the new Mackie XT this morning.
When I unpacked them, there were a lots of particles of oil inside the plastic bag and on the speakers too.
When I plugged them there is a very strong hiss noise for both speakers (First time I hear this so loud on Active Speakers)
Did those matters happened to too?
When you got therm,?
Should I send them back to the shop?
Thanks for your time,
Very appreciate it,
Charly
Charley,
Good to hear from you. Oil and hissing definitely does not sound normal - something must have happened to those speakers. I would definitely swap them out for a different set.

@@fayzereviews Thanks so much Jordan for your feedback. I def will 🙂 Keep your good work man. Your videos are very professional.
Went with this speaker and a matching sub. Excited to use it.
How do you like it?
@IAmKAZMO so far so good.
Nice review dude
Thanks! Appreciate that!
Great review as always!!
Thank you!!
My first pair of active 12's
A great choice! Thanks for watching 🤘🏽
how is it compared to the 215? is the bass difference on the 215 highly noticeable?
Hello. nice video, thanks. I have one and in idle, with no sound I ear a white noise constantly, is the speaker damage? thank you
I bought a pair of these along with a Thump 118s sub. The "thru" output doesn't pass along the Bluetooth signal. The only way BT works is via the link option. I went with these because of the BT feature mainly. Thinking about the ease of running these and not needing to drag along a mixer. I asked Mackie what their thoughts were behind this and got no response other than... we will pass this along to our team.
why not just use a mixer that has bt support or get a bluetooth dongle for a mixer. Simple solutions. mixers can get rlly small too if "dragging" along a mixer is the issue.
@@yonickmyman totally. I ended up buying a Bluetooth adapter. My issue is they push these at Bluetooth capable… which they are to an extent. My thoughts were for using these without a mixer in some instances. 75% of the time I need the mixer so it’s no big deal. But other times it would be nice to have these linked and not have to worry about the extra cables and mixer.
@@rcb_matt it seems so bizarre to me to pay thousands for a PA system and then ruin the quality by using Bluetooth. Just pay 5 more bucks for an aux cable or something, come on! Your audience will thank you :)
@@robertschnobert9090 apparently you missed the part where I said “running these without a mixer”. I have a digital mixer… so for times that I need someone to thank me, I’ll bring it along. For other times… Bluetooth works fine. Unless of course, you bought this Mackie setup.
Can you control the volume of the main and sub with bluetooth?
Thanks Fayze. I just bought one 215XT for now to use with my keyboardandsing with. It's good to hear a good informative video review about them
Dear Fayze:
God REALLY loves YOU, and He REALLY wants you to love Him too.❤️. Ron. 🙂
Great review very informative! Only review that mentions bt latency.
Were you using a bluetooth mic? I wish you explained the inputs a little more for people doing research for karaoke or other input-related tasks
Excellent review. I speak here from Brazil. I'm starting a sound company for events (weddings, parties) and I'm thinking about purchasing a couple of speakers like this.
Sound equipment is very expensive here, but I think a Mackie like this is worth the investment, right?
I'm wondering.... I direct children's classroom musicals. We perform in the school gym/multi-purpose room (audience: 100-150 parents). I have an older pair of Thump 15" speakers which are due to be replaced. Would 12" speakers be undersized for our venue. Low end is not an issue. To make children's voices audible, we need more high than low. I'm looking at the 215XT speakers now, but I'd prefer the 212XT if they were loud enough for our venue.
Very impressive video on this Mackie Monitor! Would you recommend this for an eDrum kit..Roland TD 07 KV. I like the weight of the Mackie versus the Roland 200 amp. Cheers!
Hello from Greece I would like to ask if with the thump 212xt i also set up two subwoofers which voice mode is the best to choose thanks🙏
Great video. While I love Mackie boards, I use the ProFX12 and 16v3’s, I’ve never been a fan of their speakers. Been using Alto TS 3 series and LD systems stuff last few years and no issues. Again, great vid
Thanks Ken! Love the Alto gear as well.
@@fayzereviews they just released the TS 4 series. Limited availability on the 12’s right now. I’ll be keeping a look out to grab them
came across the thump215 and thrash215 and heard that thump is better. but the thing is that theres only 60 USD price difference between the 2. so, is there a big difference in terms of sound?
What is the difference between mackie thump 212 xt and 15 inch boosted 1300w?
please help. looking for a loud, clear and bassy loudspeaker and found the mackie 215 and the macki 212 XT which have the same price.
To note that am a begineer dj who plays in family parties etc, well up to 120 pax.
so, which 1 to go with? the 215 seems to have more bass but is it worth sacrificing the other additional options on the 212 Xt to go for the additional bass on the 215?
Mackie is king 🤴
is there a big difference in bass between the thump 212 and thump 215?
link mode works only for bluetoth or for the xlr too ?
Does it make a small noise when it’s powered on even without connecting anything? Please let me know
Been waiting for this review ever since I watched your Thrash review
Thrash vs Thump review coming soon 👀
@@fayzereviews awesome.. Can't wait.
Mackie can stay on top if they put Their SRM guts in most of their lower-level units!
I have a question. I linked both speakers. I have one connecting to my mixer using xlr. I only hear the music out of the hard wired one, how do i get the other speaker to get audio?
Are these better than the JBL eon 712? I'm torn...I usually prefer mackies but the jbls have a 3 channel built in eq. I have my own Allen and heath so I guess it doesn't really matter...but I can't decide. These will be used.for small karaoke gigs
Would this be good to play guitar through? I want a home setup where I can play guitar with backing tracks or jump on the drums and play along to covers. Basically is there good balance (lows,mids,highs) to use for a home jam band?
Does it have reverb??
Is this a better speaker than the Monster X6 they sell at Sam's Club?
Should I get 12s or 15s for my house not a DJ I just like power got a couple thump gos I run a sub with those but why not go a little bigger
12 enough
Thanks for vidéo : its better Mackie thump 212xt or Mackie srt212 ?
What does thru do exactly is it a mix ?out?
Which is better with Bluetooth or not ??
what should i choose? this or Electro Voice ZLX-12BT?
don't forget about the JBL Eon712, just to muddy the waters some more!
i bought hk polar 12 at end,best decision@@jestercow
Will these pair with my Samsung smart tv?
Just picked these up this week, should the signal light stay on consistently or is it normal for it to be flickering? I’ve noticed no distortion or loss of sound/signal when the light flickers, just new to these speakers and want to confirm it’s nothing to be concerned about. Thanks!
Your good. Flickering signal just means that u haven’t sent max volume to the speaker yet. Always set volume at your source so that it’s not clipping and unity in speaker then adjust master volume until u see a solid light and enjoy clear sound
Can you connect one to the mixer and pair the second with the Bluetooth?
Probably have a delay with the Bluetooth so the music won't be synced.
does this speaker have 2 ways you can sit it on a stand? one straight and one slanted down? How do you d that? Thanks for the help.Great video!
Can you use this speaker for karaoke since when you talk on the mic the music lowers?
You could use it for karaoke, but I probably wouldn’t use that feature - it lowers the volume of the music in general, not just the vocals. Thanks for watching!
@@fayzereviews thank you, so do you have another speaker you recommend that would also work for karaoke ?
Is it rechargeable?
It’s not, unfortunately - this is not a battery speaker. Thanks for watching!
Bluetooth 5.2????
was going to buy the Thump Go but it doesnt have USB outs to power things. Very bad. Bad man. Not good. The JBL and Ev's have them. Maybe thats why the Thump's are cheaper?
To be fair, I don’t think it’s the end of the world. You could always grab a power bank for cheap to accompany it. It’d be great to have though, and definitely a selling point of the EV! Maybe we’ll get it in the next Gen?
@@fayzereviews maybe gen II. But that's the pain in the ass thing about DJing, having to buy more crap to power up simple devices like an ipad phone or whatever you need to use w a battery speaker. I mean it's battery for a reason and that reason is portability
The bluetooth is useless if your running a sub!
Poorly built,.. the screws that are used to mount the tweeter on the inside unscrewed themselves over a few months. This happened on both of mine… I had to take the whole thing apart to repair.. sold them and got some qsc s
Mackie has some shady practices also. I contacted them to inquire about the RMS wattage and was told that they don't offer this information. What company these days doesn't know that true wattage specs is the 1st thing customers look for when purchasing any speaker. This could be a 300 watt RMS Loud Speaker with fluffed wattage numbers like many crappy companies we see being reviewed on RUclips today and being called out for fake wattage numbers.
@@tbone1043tell me of a speaker company that’s true what they claim on paper.
I hate the green circle on the front.. i would never buy these just because i hate it so much
...sounds like repressed childhood trauma🤔
Can you play it with sorato And is it better than soundboks
