Mackie Thump Go (Musician Review)

There has been alot of hype over the new Mackie Thump Go and I can see why! Beautiful balanced sound in such a small form factor. Check out my review for my thoughts as a Musician using it as a wedge, and some sound samples.

[@cosmicsonata7307]

Thanks for the great review and perspective. I was just checking it out due to a drop in price and this has helped a lot, sound test and all. I'm hoping to use it for some busking and small coffee shop gigs

[@JaredGunstonTV]

Glad to hear it man. I like mine they gonna have to claw it from my hands to get it back wahaha, ie I'm buying mine haha

[@LordPlaythellSteele-er4qi]

Excellent review - I loved the style of this and the thought you have put into it, well done Sir... Excellent mic placement to try and get across what this might be capable off in terms of sound dynamics - very well though out.

[@zpe1200]

this is like the 3rd review of this speaker Ive seen and the 1st one to have the actual speaker playing.

[@guitarandknivesetc4219]

best review ever! thank you

[@JaredGunstonTV]

Thank you

[@mandogonzalez3769]

I bought one this december 2023 On sale Was telling my self to take it back n buy a Bose Then i tried it at a outdoor gig Im keeping it and buying another one

[@joebranston6330]

Thanks!

[@ericsampoll]

Awesome video, thanks. Now, with confidence, I will definitely try these speakers with the Axe i/o interface, amplitube 5, and any other electric guitar plugins, etc. ✌️🎸🎵🎶

[@bilzboyeeable]

Cool and just purchased one Zzounds

[@Studio_Two]

Jared, thanks for the demo. I am looking for a battery powered speaker. This one looks good. Wondering if you tried using this with a small mixer?

[@bennyhill3505]

I just wondered can you use the Bluetooth and combo jack at the same time?. So is this possible Mic on channel 1 Guitar & Backing track (via bt) on channel 2

[@planzed.2]

Great review man, these are cool. Btw you audio tests using the zoom are perfect 👌🏼 we can really hear how the speakers sound in a room on good headphones

[@JaredGunstonTV]

I appreciate that my bud thank you!!

[@yan5362]

How long does it last on battery at full volume???

[@jduarte1506]

Great video, I'm looking between these MACKIE and the JBL PARTYBOX 110, which is for the home, I don't know which would be better

[@JaredGunstonTV]

i can only comment on the Mackie, i've never owned JBL stuff, but i'm still very happy. And i BOUGHT this little Thump.

[@bigquinny32]

What about for front of house as a pair for a wine bar gig say 100 people. Acoustic guitar, vocals and beat buddy all running through a little mixer before the cabs. Thinking of downsizing my EV set up which is great but heavy.

[@JaredGunstonTV]

don't see why not, the audio picture this speaker paints is really balanced, i often use it via bluetooth to keep the music going while i pack down my main PA and no ones ever really noticed haha. If you can test one out though i'd recommend it just to make sure you get the power you're looking for out of it.

[@PitDriver]

Is the bass punchy or is it loose? Sealed or ported woofer?

[@JaredGunstonTV]

hmmm... you can see 2 ports if you look at it dead one (front ports), its warm and punchy, i wouldn't call it loose.

[@redcomn]

I have a pair of srm212 vclass for busking. Definitely overkill but man these things sure can throw the sound. Plus the extended warranty were no brainer for me.

[@JaredGunstonTV]

Srm are another level in budget, I haven't heard them yet but am hoping to demo the full range if I get the chance 🤟

[@yan5362]

@@JaredGunstonTV and what about the thump 215? are they ok in terms of sound quality, loudness and bass?

[@mrbsalezcrazy430]

Good evening, can this machine be used as a Karaoke machine to play You Tube Karaoke songs and sing to the lyrics, thank you, Mr B Salezcrazy

[@JaredGunstonTV]

i don't see why not. It has 2 XLR inputs and you could use BLUETOOTH to get your music to it. Then using the BLUETOOTH app you can mix your sound

[@roadArt132]

As a musician and singer, I'm having mixed thoughts on this one. The one I'm having an issue with is vocals. And although it does sound great, initially I'm having issues with the fact that it sounds a bit muddy and I have to overcompensate with high end frequency to make up for it. I do that by putting it through a mixer. Also mackie. Does anyone agree? any thoughts? I am a male singer by the way

[@NeungView]

It's 2 kg heavier than the competition. For busking that's a big problem. Every kg counts. I'm carrying 23 kg.

[@stevenstephanou8354]

Haha no sound sorry pal

[@JaredGunstonTV]

U can tell I've been in PE for a little bit huh

[@timoconnell6973]

I find your mic in this review very noisy almost annoying .sorry my friend .every time you speak it's uncanny how noisy it is .

[@JaredGunstonTV]

thank you, i'll try and work on that!

[@JaredGunstonTV]

i must add as well - i was trying that little clip on for the first time here, perhaps better post EQ/Gating on the next one. Thanks again!
