Looking for a truly portable and versatile speaker for on-the-go sound applications? Then look no further than the Mackie Thump Go, an 8", portable, battery-powered loudspeaker with a 2-channel mixer and integrated DSP, great for singer/songwriters, busking, small club/band PA systems, boardrooms, A/V presentations, classrooms, or as a personal monitor for practice or performance.

The rear panel features two combo XLR-1/4" mic/line channels with dedicated gain controls, while an XLR output is provided for daisy-chaining additional speakers. For quick and easy setup, the integrated DSP provides four speaker mode presets (Music, Live, Monitor, and Sub). Simply select your application for the best sound.

Additionally, channel two can pair with any Bluetooth device for audio streaming and there is a link button, which will connect two Thump Gos together for stereo operation. Other features include an indoor/outdoor mode button, music ducking, which lowers the music volume when using a microphone, feedback extermination, and an LED on/off button which controls the LED on the front of the speaker.
