Are you planning on getting the Mackie thump go? What are you planning on using it for?
As a dj monitor when speakers are out front and speaker for music when setting up and arriving on site.
@@DJLEOdamadprofessor perfect 👍
@@DjNinesworld quick question can you xlr out through your( thru) to the next speaker when this speaker is bluetooth ...some other youtuber said u cant hope that was clickbait
@@pree3431 I have them and you cannot.
Is it possible to use it for a wedding ceremony with 160 persons (listening, not a party)?
Good review. Props to Mackie for always staying on top of competing with other brands. This might be a good booth speaker for small dj events👍🏽
Man thank you for going so in depth with this speaker best review yet. You litterely tested everything and gave a good honest opinion and that way matters. Definitely subscribed to you channel keep up the great reviews.
I'm glad that you liked the review. I appreciate you so much!
Amazing review DJ! Honest and to the point!
Thank you so much man. Appreciate you so much
Awesome review. Have watched several videos, yours is the most helpful and easy to understand. You covered everything I needed to know. This is perfect for my weekly trivia / dj gig. It's going to eliminate my mixer and a bunch of cables. Going to buy one right now. New Toy yay : )
Thanks for watching. I appreciate you so much!
Thank you for this review. I was really curious on how to recharge the battery. Thank you for covering that. I would definitely use this with a mini mixer especially in a live band rehearsal only sending vocals through it with an external mixer and effects.
No problem! Thanks for watching
Outdoor mode added low mid/high bass. It made it sound thicker if you know what I mean. Not bottom but thicker
Oh nice you heard it? Cuz I honestly couldn’t hear a difference. Good ear! Good ear!🙌🏼
@@DjNinesworld I had to put some studio headphone on an it was a huge difference honestly might be more noticeable with the speaker on a stand since you won’t get the coupling with the ground
Very true! Next time i will try the outdoor mode when the speaker is on a speaker stand. Thanks
Yeah It tighted up the sound as if you were in a room with walls, furniture, etc.. for the sound to bounce off of.
Thanks for taking the time to do your overview.
I think out of the 'big 3' the Mackie definitely is in 3rd place though.
I think they missed a trick by not having any effects built in. The Bose S1 Pro and JBL EON COMPACT both do,and it could come in extremely handy.
The app, inputs, outputs, grille , Bluetooth is something they all have, but I just think the JBL and Bose have too much in terms of build quality and pro features compared to the Mackie.
Totally agree! 100% Thanks for the comment!
I have 2 of these and sound quality is awesome. I ran the truth a bose sub 2 and wow! I haven't tried it but if you do something you need a little more and need reverb add this speaker to a bose s1 pro and use the mixer in the bose.
For the money you can't beat it for a battery PA.
Great idea! Im gonna have to try this myself. Thanks for watching and happy holidays
How many people could two of these speakers comfortably support in an outdoor party.I know it’s not an easy question.but a ruff estimate would be fine.I play progressive house.and drum and base?
Hmm I like the price of this but im torn between this and the yorkville exm mobile 8? Can you do a comparison please?
I have 2x BOSE S1 pro plus. You can speak directly into the speaker with a microphone an no feedback. I was thinking about getting one of the Mackies as a monitor🤔
I use my mackie thump go as my monitor ALL the time! Goodluck!
How this compares to yorkville exm8 and boss s1? I say the yorkville exm8 wins all in output and bass but as clean high i say bose s1?
200 watts peak equates as 100 watts constant; this may work for a ceremony or cocktail hour for about 30- 40 people.
Exaclty
You should do a decibel test on the Everse.
Will do
I have the Mackie Thump Go. Did you see anyway to update the Firmware? How does the Mackie compare to the Yorkville EXM 8?
I don't think there is a way to update the firmware. It would be through the app if it did wouldn't it? I will check again. In terms of volume im almost 90% sure that the Yorkville will take the Mackie. I guess im gonna have to do a comparison to really find out huh? lol.. Thanks for watching
@@DjNinesworld Waiting for your next video: Yorkville EXM8 vs Mackie Thump Go!
Mackie is surprisingly loud and clean at max volume which was a little over 100dB.
Hello ! I didn’t have time to see everything, but I want to ask a question right away! Music on bluetooth and a guitar at the same time can sound? What would play under the backing tracks and sing into the microphone. I am a street musician, so now I play guitar / backing track / vocals through Jbl Eon One Compact. Will it work with Macki Trump Go? Or do you need an external mixer?
It only has 2 channels so i think you would need a small external mixer for that extra channel. Thank you for your comment
Thanks for your review! I'm debating between the yorkvill and the mackie. The biggest complaint I have with the yorkville is that it doesn't allow battery swap. On a busy day I play about 12 hours.
I play in an acoustic ensemble so I don't need super powerful speakers. I've been using two jbl eon compact and they've been good, could use a little more volume but when I bought them back then it was the best for what I needed.
Which of the two do you recommend? I don't care about mixer. I just care about loud clear sound with bass. Is the yorkville significantly louder than the mackie to compromise on the battery swapping issue?
Thanks!
I will be doing a comparison video on the mackie and the yorkville very soon. Please look out for that. Thanks for watching
hello brother I have seen your reviews about the speakers and I need you to tell me which one to choose between the mackie go and the hk move go, I need it for a basketball field and give it a go only with music, I would appreciate it, thanks a greeting
For a basketball court? If i had the choice i would get at least 2 speakers but i would imagine that the hk move go would be slightly louder than the mackie thump go. Thanks for watching
So when you have a dj controller plug in XLR to one of the speakers, will the other pick up the sound as well?
I don't believe so.. Sorry
Hello, I unpacked a thump go today. I have a noise on the speaker. Could you please test the following:
Turn on box (battery or mains, doesn't matter) gain 1 and gain 2 to left stop. Mainvolume to 12 o'clock, or to 3 o'clock.
In the Mackie App move channel fader 1 towards 0dB. Now I hear a hissing noise, which keeps coming and going. It sounds like a noise gate is opening and closing.
There is no cable or device connected via Bluetooth audio. I am only adjusting Channel 1 slowly towards 0dB. When I mute channel 1 it is gone. The problem does not occur with Channel 2. It also doesn't matter if channel 1 is set to mic or line. I would say, that is not in order ! Also, I could no longer connect via Bluetooth. I had to completely hard reset the box after turning it on and off.
Im sorry you are having those problems. I tested on mine and its fine. Maybe you got a lemon?
Do this unit come fully charged, or do you plug it into the wall, and it starts charging the internal battery?
The unit comes with some charge but not fully so i would advise you to definitely charge it before you use it at a gig or in a live situation. It is battery powered and it takes the standard iec cable to charge it into the wall. Let me know if you have any more questions
Can we get a Yorkville mobile 8 vs mackie thump go?
Yup coming up soon!
Damn that was loud at the one part! lol!!
Ya bro this gets pretty damn loud! LOL
do you think it’s better than the yorkville ? or the yorkville is better
I think overall the yorkville is better. More inputs, effects etc... But i can't deny that the mackie is just as loud and is the best value speaker.
@@DjNinesworld not just that yorkville is more compact and portable so it’s a beast
how does it compare with a yorkville exm8
Comparison video coming soon
Can you use a sub while you are on bluetooth????????
No you cannot. Sorry
Is music or speech mode better for singing?
Speech mode is better for singers most def!
@@DjNinesworld awesome thanks!
This or the exm Mobile 8?
Yes I am! Working on it sir!
I built my own that runs on car jump starter capacitor and 400watt car amp. I can charge it fully in 3 minuets and will run for about an hour and if my car battery dies I can jump my car😆
Lmao!!!!
Does it have reverb??
No sorry it does not have reverb sir
@@DjNinesworld too bad
@@CESARvsTHEWORLD ya these are one of the cons of the speaker
Everything you said that it was lacking a real DJ could use a board to get those effects.... I don't think there's a real DJ out there that would plug straight into these speakers without a board with the exception of a wedding ceremony and at that point you would need all the effects that you say it's missing.
Exactly!
The real cons of this speaker is the pass through clr line out.
When you are playing music with bluethooth input the line out DOESN'T WORK! so you can't link to a subwoofer or anything else.
I've tried many partybox speaker including jbl 110 and 310. They lack in loudness, good low end buth nothing else. They can't produce enough loudness for take a little party with 10 people.
The problem with those spesker is they can't sound well if they are on the ground. They need a solid tripod if there are many people.
I solved the problem with an expensive one speaker BUT really a game changer, LD system maui 5 GO, column array, 12. 9 kg, mids/highs reach 2 meters height.
ruclips.net/video/j7JEp07CcKs/видео.html
Yes i realized the pass through doesn't work if your using bluetooth after i made this video. Thats a big one! Thanks for pointing that out. That should be on my video too. LD system maui 5 go is a beast!
@@DjNinesworld it lacks in treble over 12 khz, it's quite normal for fullrange driver but for its cost I was expecting a bit more clarity. I spent 30 minutes for add a cheap 25mm dome tweeter with a 3.3 uF cap under the last woofer , it is a massive improvement for crisp Trasparent highs.
The real benefit is to have the sound starting from 2 meters height so you can have even 30 people in front of the speaker but the sound dispersion remains the same
I watched another video and the host specified you cannot hook up a sub
Hmmm i gonna have to test this out then. Thanks for bringing this up to my attention
@@DjNinesworld after testing let me know if it works with the sub hooked up. I'm thinking about buying one.
I hooked up a sub to mine. Thru to input on speaker.
This amp has NO REVERB on the Mic channel! IT IS WORTHLESS! Good sounding little battery amp for keyboard only maybe, but with NO REVERB on the Mic channel, well that sucks! The way better option is the Roland Street Cube with, yes, can you imagine, REVERB!
Yup i see your point! Well the price of the unit reflects its capabilities i think.. But yes it would've been nice to have at least reverb on this unit. Thanks for watching and your comment
You must be pinoy 🤣
What makes you say that?😂
@DJ Nines World hahaha I heard a hint of TITO BOI 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Plus the fact that you used the laughing chipmunk. I've only seen Filipinos use that sound FX in their videos 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What about the soundboks Wireless speaker 🔊 🤔 with the denon prime go yo 🔥🇬🇧🏴🇺🇸🇪🇺🇨🇦
Sounds like a great combination
@@DjNinesworld which one a better buy in your opinion for dj's. Soundboks or mackie Thump Go
