Mackie Thump GO Batteridriven PA-anläggning

Battery-Powered Loudspeaker — Professional Sound Without Mains Power

The Mackie Thump GO is an 8-inch battery-powered portable loudspeaker for gigs where mains power is unavailable. A 200W Class-D amplifier drives a custom 8" woofer and 1" compression driver to deliver up to 115 dB max SPL across a 57 Hz to 20 kHz range. At 8 kg and 457 x 230 x 285 mm, the enclosure pairs one-handed carry with a GB-100 battery for 12 hours per charge, making it the right choice for mobile DJs, acoustic performers, wedding hosts, and corporate presenters who need professional-grade sound in one cabinet. A tri-color battery life indicator on the rear panel keeps runtime visible at a glance.

Standout Features — DSP Toolkit Built for Live Use

What separates this portable PA from typical battery speakers is its DSP toolkit. The Feedback Eliminator scans channel 1 and applies a notch filter to suppress squeal, while Music Ducking lowers channel 2 when the presenter speaks.

Sound & Amplification — Full-Range Punch in a Compact Cabinet

The amplifier and driver pairing delivers the signature Mackie thump without mains power.

• Amplifier Power: 200 W Class-D — drives the woofer and compression driver without draining the battery.
• Max SPL: 115 dB — enough headroom for a small venue, outdoor ceremony, or DJ wedge.
• Frequency response spans 57 Hz to 20 kHz, reaching bass territory without a sub.

Battery & Portability — 12 Hours of Cable-Free Performance

Swappable battery and compact enclosure make this grab-and-go.

• Battery Type: Removable GB-100 lithium-ion pack — swap a depleted pack for a charged spare (sold separately) for unlimited runtime.
• Battery Life: Up to 12 hours per charge — covers full-day events, weddings, and weekend retreats.
• Weighing 8 kg in a 457 x 230 x 285 mm cabinet, the enclosure fits a trunk or pole.

Connectivity & DSP — Mixer, Bluetooth, and App Control

The built-in 2-channel digital mixer and wireless control speed setup.

• I/O: 2 x XLR/TRS combo jacks, 3.5 mm aux, XLR mix output — connect mics, instruments, or a phone, then chain to a second speaker.
• Bluetooth streaming with the Thump Connect 2 app enables wireless control of EQ, voicing modes, and channel levels.
• Wireless Linking: Stereo or dual-mono pairing of two Thump GO units — expand to a stereo rig without cables.

Who Is It For — Mobile Performers, DJs, and Event Hosts

The Mackie Thump GO is the right choice for mobile DJs, solo musicians, wedding and corporate MCs, fitness instructors, and house-of-worship teams who need reliable full-range sound without mains power. Its 12-hour battery and 8 kg weight suit beach ceremonies, outdoor receptions, and busking sessions. Music Ducking and Feedback Eliminator simplify speech-heavy gigs, while the 45° wedge angle and Monitor voicing mode let performers use it as a stage monitor. Pair two units wirelessly for stereo at small clubs, or stack with the ThumpSub GO for added low-end. The molded enclosure and powder-coated steel grille handle transport.

Brand & Product Story — Mackie's Battery-Powered Lineage

Mackie was founded in 1988 in Woodinville, WA, and has built its reputation on professional live-sound gear that balances price, durability, and output. The Thump GO continues that lineage as part of Mackie's battery-powered Live Sound family, alongside the ThumpSub GO subwoofer and the ShowBox. The GB-100 battery is shared with the ShowBox, letting owners standardize spares.
