Rockville Sells affordable speaker bags for these (I have 2). I just get a piece of soft egg crate foam to line the bottom of the bag to give the grill more impact resistance. I agree battery life is incredible. I used one for a 5 hour wedding at 75% gain to fill a balcony area and it held up the whole night along with my XVIVE U3's to make it even more awesome.

I pre-ordered mine last October and was stoked when I got it. I tested it and it was banging. I hadn’t had a ceremony to try it out on so it sat on my desk until last month when I was like “let me do some practice mixes”. For some reason, it bugged out. The sound was extremely faint and would randomly return to full volume, no matter what input I had. I thought it was my cable initially so I switched it, tried a different channel, tried Bluetooth and nothing. Luckily I got it from Sweetwater so I messaged them and they took care of me. Sent me a replacement and I got a new one. Again, tested it. Sounds good so far. I think I’ll use it for practice once a week just to make sure cause I finally do have some ceremonies coming up and I can’t have it fail on me out there. Other than that, I love it

How do you Bluetooth your Pioneer into the speakers? I’ve been trying to do that for years
@nesentertainments2 жыл бұрын
The Rev 1 has rca outputs. So I use a rca to xlr cable 10 ft. You need a wireless mic transmitter such as x vive, sennheiser, or alto. I plug transmitter into rca xlr end and then receiver behind Mackie go. Keep in mind wireless transmitter have different battery lives. Also try to keep speaker in same room. I would not recommend for a serious event like a wedding but family party backyard party etc etc.

2 questions: Why do you consider it "easier" to connect the 2 speakers with a cord than to do it wireless with Bluetooth? It seems that it would he easier to avoid carrying and running an extra cable than to just turn on Bluetooth...? It is for me anyway, at least with other devices I use. Also, speaking of other devices, i currently have 2 Onn Party speakers. Before purchasing the 2nd one, Onn CS told me that connecting them via Bluetooth would transfer not only music but also my mic input sound to the other speaker. Well, they lied. It doesn't transfer. I only get music. Does that work with 2 Thump Gos? In other words, if you connect a mic to one speaker and have them connected thru Bluetooth, can you hear your mic in the other speaker just like the music?

This kind of speaker like ANY 8" monitor can't be used as outdoor speaker. It can't reproduce nothing under 100 hz. It's only mids and highs. A subwoofer doesn't solve the problem because Subwoofer out doesn't work when the speaker play music using bluethoot.
