The Mackie Thrash and Thump powered PA speakers are the most affordable in Mackie's speaker lineup. How do they compare, and is the Thump worth the price difference? That's the question I try and answer in this video where I go in-depth on the most important specifications and features you need to know about between these two popular models.

Thanks for the review. Thumps are great for small/medium size gigs and for beginners. Also great back up speakers or for extra fill 👍🏼

[@giorgiocostanza9405]

hi, I've been using a pair of thrash for about a year, and they sound really good, they're very loud, I've had no problems at parties with 100 people and medium-large venues, I recommend them to those who want to start and to those who don't need very high definition audio. PS: for bass, placed near a wall, they hit really hard 😉

[@WildDrNorth]

My band uses a pair of thrash 215s for mains. They are a bit lacking in the low end. But paired with a set of 18 subs the system sounds great. We also use thump 12a for monitors.

[@kellyaustin7487]

I've never really been a Mackie fan but I am a fan of your reviews. That being said I think these speakers will serve their purpose. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾

[@silverfoxpa]

Was just looking to upgrade from an entry Vonyx system and was unsure which to get. Watched this video and decided to put the extra cash in and go for the Thump....

[@martinanfinson7572]

The bottom end really drops off on the Thrash, definitely prefer the Thump!

[@yan5362]

is there a big different between the thrash and thump? planning to go with the thump 215 xt.

[@vinstrumentals]

I'm currently using an SRM350v3 as a keyboard amp. I've had some trouble with it lately. I'm looking for a back up amp, would the Thump 212 do the job as well?

[@iengineer_247]

I used the Thrash for mains for a brass band live show. They were surprisingly ok. I think around the low mid area needs to be eq’d on them just a little. They didn’t clip I was driving them. I’m like the other guy I like Yamaha better I had them before the budget ones they’re very clean.

[@ericc8895]

Are the mackie thump 15 super loud and crisp? Just wondering how well they would sound with my current 4 sound town 18 inch active subs. I am using 2 proreck 15 inch loudspekers now and they just do not have that crisp sound once the volume is really jacked up

[@djmgk7473]

What's your opinion for the Beringer DR112DSP. I bye them before 6 months ago. My first option was Mackie 15'' but they are much expencive than Beringer so i buy them.. Please make a test and share with us ... Many Thanks from Greece ... !!!

[@jamesdial7934]

Just ordered 2 thump 212’s have additional speakers to use though

[@dinkartirpude6137]

Mackie vs JBL which one better, Mackie vs Alto which one better?

[@diegoteka87]

Are these two speakers amplified, correct?

[@fayzereviews]

Thanks for watching! I just released a review on my new favorite affordable studio monitors for 2023: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5fZnZmCYsaDnLs

[@billyunair]

Does the new Thump have a fan for the amp to prevent overheating? I had first gen 15 thumps and loved them but did not play out with them. I used QSC K12s for shows as a DJ. Thanks

[@walasfilms]

Hi brother, what would you say it’s the better between the thumb and the thumb bst?

[@martinhomola3473]

Do you think it is okay to get 1piece of thump 212 if I allready have 1 piece of thrash 212(not a pair)? For a rock band rehersal room. For vocals. I assume it would bring some benefit with 3dB SPL difference, and some more clarity for vocals with thump. Is it even OK to combine 1 and 1, signal runs from the mix to left and right main output.

[@ranchen5930]

我和你一样的想法！我想将thump和thrash串联使用

[@miamichi5]

The trash sounded better to me. Guess it's the 15 woofer compared to the 12. Personally I prefer Yamaha speakers to any brand other than QSC. But yeah price is a big issue. Very good videos bro 👍! Thank you...

[@fayzereviews]

Thanks for watching! I was worried about that - I knew it was a fair comparison, especially over KZbin, but it’s what the people want.

[@billyunair]

QSCs are great. I had first gen K12s. Loved them. Also the first gen Thump 15s are good. Great bass. Don't know how well they would do for long shows vs QSCs without adding a fan for the amp. Cheers

[@stangz-io3cf]

Thump for little low end, but the acoustics on Thrash tho

[@famradio]

Very good review. Iam 10 months late but nevertheless i have the 215 thrash only because the thump was more expensive. I am here to tell you that I am not mad at the thrash at all. It sounds good. I have a mixer hooked up and I do gigs at event spaces and banquet halls. if I had the money for the thumps I would've gotten those first. However, my outside events, I think I'm going to go get some 12 inch subwoofers just to boost the bottom up a tad bit.

[@YoManG-to9cu]

I have pair of Makie thrash 212 and they sound better then thrash 215 for some reason.

[@BigRed4Life]

very helpful. Thanks

[@fayzereviews]

Glad it was helpful!

[@thethesaxman23]

Right now I’m looking for a pair of speakers to use as monitor wedges. I feel like for this application, a lot of what makes the Thumps better wouldn’t really apply. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

[@kevinwhitman9304]

We use thrash as monitors. Thumps for tops. Mint setup for live gig

[@cesarbaron215]

Money wise the thrash 215 is in the same range of the thump 212. Would you prefer the thrash being a bigger speaker or still is better the thump being smaller in size?

[@fayzereviews]

Good question! I’d honestly prefer the Thump, even at a smaller size. The features and quality as opposed to the Thrash is worth losing a few inches off the woofer. Thanks for watching!

[@cesarbaron215]

@@fayzereviews thank you!! This helps me a lot in my decision.

[@amphitrichous]

@@fayzereviews you're awesome for answering comments and questions. Thanks!

[@billyunair]

Why not get Thump 15s?

[@andypaultaylor]

Hi, I'm looking for a pair of active monitor speakers for our new rehearsal room. We've been using some Mackies for our guitars, backing tracks and vocal, but bass guitar was forbidden. Can a bass signal (running trough a Darkglass modeling pedal) do any damages to either one of these speakers?

[@budverissimo1]

I'm looking for the same info. Wanting a "FRFR" type powered speaker to plug my darkglass pedalboard into. I have a headrush 215 and it doesn't push the low end we need.

[@MultiToad100]

Hey, I'm a drummer and I need a speaker to amplifiy my electronic drumset. I play in a band. We rehearse in a small living room. Are these speakers a good option?

[@fayzereviews]

These would be great!

Very much appreciated.. Thank you Jordan

I want to buy the Thrash 212 as stage monitors, will it work well for me?

[@fayzereviews]

Definitely! They are perfect as stage monitors. Thanks for watching!

Which one would be better for a live band, not for dj stuff?

[@fayzereviews]

The Thump is you’ve got the money!

[@maximo-0101]

great speakers 🎉

[@fayzereviews]

Agreed!

[@ddunning6207]

Do these have mixer capabilities? I need to run a headset

[@unabashedlybroken6789]

The thump has a 2 ch mixer and built in dsp

[@bksinger7624]

Is this good for 200 people 215

[@josephmaxwell8010]

I Decided to buy Mackie SRM 212 class.. Is it far better than these speakers?

[@ddunning6207]

Does it have headset capabilities? Sorry I'm new to this. What's the price on the one you got?

[@Zechariah340]

Would the Trash be good as floor monitors?

[@fayzereviews]

Definitely, especially if you’re on a budget!

[@Zechariah340]

@@fayzereviews appreciate the feedback Cheers

[@jmongmon1100]

I would think so as you probably don't need the bass output as much for a floor monitor. Not sure if a 12" has a shorter range to the sweet spot than the 15, so a 12 may be good as a monitor. Maybe someone else can chime in. I just bought a Thump 12" 212, not the Bluetooth. It's wil be primarily a practice monitor Amp just for vocals going through the mackie pro12fx mixer. Everyone else will use their cabs or acoustic drum for practice.

[@luciosanchez4204]

Which speaker has better bass?

[@jmongmon1100]

I believe all sizes being equal, it's the thump. If yoy are wondering about the thrash 15" vs thump 12", I wouldn't have that answer.

[@rogertheprincnava624]

Connecting a mixer to it will make it sound cleaner

[@fayzereviews]

No doubt! Thanks for watching.
