Thump Go

The quality and fullness of the bass of monitor speakers only applies when they are mounted at an exact height in regards to the listeners head as well as the room being (somewhat) acoustically treated. While the mackie thump go is significantly larger than the KRKs, it will behave more like an actu

I've bought the Mackie Thump Go for this purpose plus house/street parties with friends. I was more inclined for the Bose but didn't find the sound amazing for club style music, I feel it's better suited for vocals/live music. So my options changed to Mackie vs Everse 8. And then yeah, for this purp

I'd skip the JBL entirely. They sound nice, but you can't build a decent DJ system on that. Delay due to DSP, no pro connections, no mixer, etc. They are really meant for domestic/end-user only. I've got two Mackie Thump Go (bought 2y apart, so I'm clearly happy) and they are decent, have embedded 2

Didn't read in detail, but this has an easy answer. House party: JBL Partybox, as much as your budget allows or a pair to spread the sound. Or hi-fi/desk 2.1 systems. Monitors are for monitoring. Mostly flat, boring, directional, close range, etc. An 8" monitor is not an 8" speaker. Small PA is over

If you’d like it to be portable (small and able to run on a battery) Mackie thump go is a good option. It’s what I have and is plenty loud for a small house party. You could get more bass with one of the 10,12,15 inch models but those can’t run on battery and are less portable. If you really want ba

The EV Everse line is solid, built in mixer, battery powered, and good output for it's size. They come in 8" and 12" variants. They are quite light(IMO). JBL has some good options, haven't personally used them though. Mackie is the cheapest option I'd recommend, the Thump Go series is very light, ea

If you need/want to keep the battery-powered option, might look at Mackie Thumpsub Go subs. I have 2 EV Everse 8 and recently bought 2 Thumpsub Go's. It's a nice little combo, the subs add quite a lot to the Everses. I do a lot of smaller outdoor events, and the setup works well for that. The subs a

The bigger Spark amps get good reviews. I've got a Mackie thump go that does a decent job with bass. Haven't tried it playing with a drummer. But it does well when I don't want to dig out my amp.

The Mackie thump go is a single model. It can run on a battery without being plugged in and has an 8 inch driver. For about the same price you can get a non battery powered 12 inch which may be a better option just a matter of preference. I kind of wish I had a bit more bass so if ur unsure I’d go f

Yall are gonna jump down my throat, but this is a question for small gathering house parties… Mackie Thump Go 8” tops and Mackie ThumpSub Go 8” sub-woofer worked PERFECTLY for the last house party I gigged. 10 people, basement living room, nobody complained about sound quality and it was PLENTY loud
