Mackie Thump 18S Powered Subwoofer

Professional performance

If you want to make an impact, the Thump 18S is the ideal choice. Designed to deliver bass with outstanding depth and power, this high-output subwoofer is an excellent companion for your full-range loudspeakers. Boasting 1200W of Class-D power and a custom 18'' woofer, the Thump 18S is capable of delivering a powerful low-end with a maximum SPL of up to 130dB. Perfect for filling your venue with rich, defined bass.

The Thump 18S also provides you with exceptional flexibility. With dual XLR inputs on the rear panel, it's easy to hook up two loudspeakers for a 2.1 configuration, or just one if you are running multiple sub and full-range loudspeaker stacks. There are also stereo full-range outputs, which allow you to connect additional subwoofers to your system with ease, whilst stereo high-pass outputs ensure that your mid/high loudspeakers are optimised correctly. Combined with a precision crossover at 140Hz, the Thump 18S ensures that no matter what your setup consists of, it'll sound phenomenal every single night.

Physically and electronically robust. The Thump 18s has been built to withstand the rigours of the road. With Mackie's 'Built-Like-A-Tank' construction, you can be sure that your subwoofer is able to meet the needs of even the most demanding situations. A solid all-wood cabinet ensures that your sub is able to endure the punishment of life on the road, whilst integrated protection circuitry keeps your system running safely and reliably.
