Equipped with advanced digital mixers, wireless control, streaming, and linking capabilities, Thump Boosted offers more versatility and configuration options than ever before at such an affordable price.
“Redesigned from the ground up, the new Thump Series speakers are our most flexible and powerful Thumps ever,” remarks John Boudreau, Mackie VP of Product Management. “With a choice of four full-range models, plus a companion subwoofer, it has never been easier to choose a Thump system that fits your needs and budget perfectly.”
The Thump Series is equipped with custom-designed woofers and 1.4-inch titanium dome compression drivers plus an all-new efficient amplifier design with Dynamic Bass Response technology and next-generation system protection.
The 1300-watt Thump12A and Thump15A feature a built-in 2-channel mixer equipped with Vita preamps and Wide-Z technology that can easily handle mics, instruments and line level signals without any additional equipment or adjustments. Plus, with four application-specific speaker modes, users can optimize the system at the push of a button. 
Thump12BST and Thump15BST models with advanced DSP, wireless control, linking, and streaming include a built-in 3-channel digital mixer that features two digitally controlled Vita+ preamps with Wide-Z technology, 3-band EQ per channel with variable high-pass filters on Vita+ inputs, and six loudspeaker modes.
For convenient control and visibility, the back panel features a crystal clear, high-resolution color display showing channel metering, levels, EQ, and more.
Users can pair a Bluetooth enabled device to a Thump Boosted loudspeaker and stream music directly to Thump systems. In addition to back panel control, Thump Boosted gives complete wireless control over everything using the Thump Connect app available for iOS and Android devices. Quickly access levels, EQ, meters, and configuration with three memory presets to streamline setup.
Utilizing the latest Bluetooth technology, Thump Boosted loudspeakers can wirelessly link directly to each other at up to 100 meters for music streaming applications plus give wireless control over the entire system via the Thump Connect app, with options for stereo or dual-zone system configuration.
“Advanced DSP and wireless control in a PA system is now more attainable than ever with the new Thump series,” says Boudreau, “Combined with the rock-solid amplifier design, acoustic tuning, and gig-friendly hardware, Thump Boosted is a huge leap in versatility and capability in an ultra-affordable powered loudspeaker system.”
