Introducing the SRM1801 Powered Subwoofer from Mackie
May 8, 2010 by Phil Tolhurst
If you are looking at getting a new subwoofer, than you probably have the following criteria in mind:
1. You need as much power as possible. (That’s not my criteria that’s taken straight from Mackie’s website)
If you feel the need, the need for deep rumble then the SRM1801 offers class-leading power in its price range.
The SRM1801 has a high-output 18″ woofer that can be felt from across the room.
2. It’s got to be easy to move and built to last.
The SRM1801 incorporates features that make it lighter and more portable than the competition. Plus, it’s made with rigid plywood (not fiberboard) to handle the rigors of the road.
So, if you are looking for professional quality, portability and impressive low end for your system then the SRM1801 could be the choice for you.
Paired with a Mackie SRM450v2, you have a complete (and completely affordable) “plug and play” system that is ideal for small clubs, mobile DJs or rehearsal spaces.
