If you need a high-output, simple PA system that compares to some of the most expensive systems out therelook no further than HD Series.
Power and Agility
The HD1801 Powered Subwoofer delivers 1600 watts of peak power using Mackies Class-D Fast Recovery amplification. Class-D amps allow for extremely high-output in a design that is much lighter than traditional amplifiers. Normally, a sub that can push that kind of power is no fun to lug around. Okay, we cant promise a fun load in, but we can say that your subs are now probably lighter than your bassists rig. Its also really compact, which means you might even be able to carry it all by yourselfsorry roadies. Plus, our Fast Recovery design allows the amplifier to recover more quickly when pushed into clipping. This means less distortion when things get too loud. Hey, we would just tell you to turn it down, but were not the cops or your old man neighbor.
Tweaked and Tuned
Mackie has once again called on the sonic geniuses over at EAW to make the HD1801 the most punchy, chest-pounding subwoofer in its class. The ported, direct-radiating design means super-low frequency extension that is smooth and powerful. EAW also custom specified the 18″ driver to work in perfect harmony with the amplifier. Some of the other guys claim high wattage, but use limiters to reduce the amount of actual power that hits the speaker. Thats like buying a 40-year-old single malt scotch and mixing it with Mountain Dew. We would never do that to you the woofer is designed to soak up each and every bit of power the amp puts out. Precision phase control and tuning filters make the HD1801the perfect companion to the HD1531, especially when using the high-pass outputs. A finely tuned, phase aligned and undeniably professional PA system is just a couple of patches away.
Its a Bird, Its a Planeits the HD1801
Lets face it. Most stages are pretty small. I mean, they want to pack in drink-buying people, not make room for on-stage tomfoolery. Thats why we decided to incorporate rigging points onto the HD1801. Flying subs clears up tons of floor space and looks, wellpretty darn impressive. You can even flip off that trademark “Mackie Blue” LED on the front if you want the HD1801 to blend seamlessly into the background. But, some of you are going to have to transport this guy from show to show. Thats why the HD1801 embodi
