barry 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I have not used them or heard them but what i have heard about mackie is they are the dogs. Link to post Share on other sites
fester 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Mackie srm450 are well regarded however I believe the thumps are just rebranded Tapco. I've never heard or used them though so I can't really comment on their build and sound quality. Craig Dance Sounds Disco http://www.discosheffield.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites

IMO the mackie srm 450's (£900) are a bit harsh and investing that bit more in qsc/rcf is worth it. you may want to consider the rcf 4 series - 412/415's . (£1200/£1250). we used a set of 422's last week in a large school hall and they were spot on, pleanty of power with a very respectable bottom end considering such a small cab. i use the rcf 712's and have absolutely no complants other than why did i bother buying a sub - hardly use it.
