DJ speakers

Review: The Mackie Thump series powered loudspeakers deliver deep low-end and real power in a lightweight design that is extremely portable. The Class-D Fast Recovery amplification pushes unmatched power to the high-frequency compression driver and bass-pounding high-output woofer. Plus, Mackie Active processing, including a precision crossover and driver time-alignment provides total optimization for maximum system efficiency. Versatile by design, the Thump loudspeakers feature a user-adjustable 3-band EQ for tone control and since they can be pole-mounted or used as a wedge, the Thump series loudspeakers represent the best value available for a complete stage solution.

Sure, the Thump loudspeakers have a built-in power amp, in fact, each have 2 of them. The Mackie's Class-D Fast Recovery low-frequency amp drives the woofer more efficiently with less heat byproduct than other speakers. But so much more goes into a Mackie loudspeaker design than just amplifiers. Mackie Active technology divides the frequencies via a precision 2-way crossover and also time aligns the signals so low-frequency and high-frequency signals arrive in sync to every member of your audience. Active compression provides a first line of defense for the drivers and thermal circuitry protects the amplifiers and power supply should things get too hot. All the onboard electronic systems work together dynamically to produce superior quality sound previously unavailable in this price range.

For most people, portability is paramount. That's why the Thump loudspeakers are ultra-compact and lightweight. Regardless of application, there's a right Thump for the job. It delivers unmatched low end, that's why they are Thumps. But, if you are a DJ and really need to bump, the TH-15A's large woofer is the perfect choice.

Not only are Thump loudspeakers, superb PA enclosures, they also make a superior monitor wedge, just lay the cabinet on its side and turn it up. The compact, lightweight design means zero strain, whether mounting it on a high pole or loading up the van. Ultra-wide frequency response makes them ideal as a keyboard, vocal or even bass guitar monitor. Thump loudspeakers have incredibly smooth response and dispersion over a wide range of frequencies, so you can crank 'em up and they still sound smooth and never harsh.

The Thump series powered loudspeakers put out a tremendous amount of sound for their size and price tag. The 2-way ported design generates ample quantities of chest-pounding bass, and their 1" compression driver ensures smooth, wide dispersion. We even inserted a 3-band equalizer at the input to give you all the tonal control you could ever want, with an available 15 dB boost or cut at 80Hz (low shelf), 100Hz to 8 kHz (sweepable mids) and 12 kHz (high shelf). With their extremely versatile EQ, you can add some extra thump to that kick drum, bring out the sizzle in your hi-hats, add pop to vocals or correct acoustic anomalies in the room.

Because Mackie know you demand the most from your speakers, we added some extra circuitry to keep your Thump loudspeakers performing at their best, even when pushed really hard for long periods of time. Each driver has its own transparent compression circuit, which helps protect them from damaging transient peaks. An over-excursion filter, inserted just before the low frequency amplifier, protects the woofer from bottoming-out when the low-end is driven to the maximum. This means you can hit them hard without fear of thermal damage. Mackie know things can get pretty hot in the real world, so if the electronics do overheat, separate thermal switches activate and shut down the high and/or low frequency amplifiers until they cool down. These safeguards ensure long life and great-sounding loudspeakers you can always count on.

Review: The Mercury V1 is a compact stand-mount loudspeaker offering outstanding flexibility and class leading performance. As a front stereo pair the Mercury V1 excels at delivering dynamic bass and the musical articulation of much more costlier designs. Its high current handling is equally at home in home theatre systems where Mercury V1 is easy to drive nature and deep bass punch are compatible with a wide range of AV amplifiers and receivers.

Comprehensively upgraded from previous Mercury stand mount designs the V1 cabinet has been stiffened with revised bracing and is slightly larger to deliver even deeper bass. The new driver array features a new ultra light mid/bass pulp cone, the fastest cone yet to grace a Mercury loudspeaker. The Mercury V soft dome tweeter is engineered to tolerances generally found on much more costly loudspeaker designs, giving the V1 impressive top end extension and a natural, spacious sound.

The Mercury V1 also benefits from an upgraded crossover with high quality components, high purity silver plated wiring and enhanced Differential Material Technology (DMT) damping on the HF capacitors. This high tech engineering, distilled down from Tannoy's high-end loudspeaker designs, ensures Mercury V1 delivers true class-leading acoustic performance.

With its compact cabinet and breathtaking performance, the Mercury V1 is an all round loudspeaker for systems where space is at a premium. As a refined 2 channel stereo music system or as part of a multi-channel home theatre setup Mercury V1 delivers truly outstanding performance and value.

To cater for both modern and more traditional decor, Mercury V1 is available in either sugar maple or dark walnut finish.

Revised internal bracing and chambering on the Mercury V1 has delivered a solid and compact cabinet with very low box colouration. Built from wood pulp and high density fibre loaded board, each cabinet benefits from low frequency port-tuning allowing Mercury V1 to punch out dynamic bass rhythms like a much larger loudspeaker.

The Mercury V1 features substantially upgraded drivers over previous Mercury ranges with a new ultra-light bass/mid driver cone and a high specification soft-dome teeter assembly. The Mercury V delivers fast, dynamic bass with a detailed and fluid high frequency performance. High power handling ensures they can be driven hard with movies and music, yet remained subtle and refined at everyday listening levels.

The more refined Mercury V1 crossover benefits from Tannoy's patented Differential Materials Technology (DMT). The innovative compound is used to mount the crossover's high frequency capacitors, improving damping and delivering smoother and more accurate reproduction through the upper ranges.

Unheard of in a budget loudspeaker design, Tannoy's engineers found that this high quality silver plated oxygen-free copper cable really allowed the Mercury V range to breathe. The result is a more articulate and detailed sound with resolution of fine detail and micro dynamics on par with speakers costing much more.

The Mercury V range (except V4) can be easily wall mounted for convenience and a discreet look in the home. Each unit is fitted with two screw-sockets, securely fastened into the cabinet body for use with a wide range of third-part loudspeaker brackets. In addition to theses mounting sockets the dedicated wall-mount Mercury VR rear speaker comes with twin key-hole mounts for simple and cost-effect screw or bolt fixing flush to the wall.

In response to the demand for products designed to enhance home decor, Mercury V is the best looking Mercury loudspeaker range to date. The clean lines, brushed aluminium trim, subtle branding and choice of sugar maple or dark walnut finish ensure Mercury V speakers look as good as they sound in any home.
