HD1501 Mackie Powered Subs
The HD1501 15˝ Powered Subwoofer is well endowed with a Class-D Fast Recovery amplifier making the HD1501 extremely lightweight and efficient. The Class-D amp produces 1200 Watts of peak power that recovers quicker when pushed into clipping with less distortion thanks to the Fast Recovery design of the amp.

Power and Agility
Just pair up the HD1501 Powered Subwoofer with any HD Series full-range loudspeaker for an extremely portable PA that delivers unmatched clarity and eliminates the need for tons of expensive and heavy outboard gear. The HD1501 Powered Subs easily align with Mackie tops such as the HD1521 for professional top quality sound. The high-pass output prevents low frequencies from being diverted to your tops so only mid and highs are carried by your tops while the HD1501 handles the burden of power sucking low frequencies with grace and ease.

Ready for Anything
Mackie is definitely known for their road worthy construction and durability. First off, the enclosure is built using 15mm birch. Wood is not only more durable than plastic, but delivers a more natural sound. Second, the sub enclosure is covered with a tough coating to prevent scratches, dings, and the usually loading and off loading mishaps. The grill is equally robust, made using powder coated steel and flush with the enclosure to avoid denting. The HD1501 Sub is one of the most compact subwoofers available with the light weight amp, ultra compact design, birch enclosure, all paired with a punchy chest pounding EAW Woofer. This set is for serious performers only.

HD1521 Mackie Speakers
SMALL PACKAGE. BIG RESULTS.
Mackies HD1521 2-way High Definition Powered Loudspeaker delivers incredible power, clarity and extreme flexibility. This loudspeaker is loaded with power boasting a Class-D Fast Recovery amplifier that produces a stunning 1600 Watts of peak system power. A Class-D Fast Recovery system reacts immediately leading to less distortion when the speakers are pushed to clipping in demanding situations. The coolest part is that the HD1521s have two of these amps in every speaker. This bi-amped system delivers 700W RMS from the low frequency amp and 100W RMS from the high frequency amp totally the highest powered 2-way system available in its class. It's not just about the power though that puts the HD1521 above it's class. Mackie's patented acoustic correction processing coupled with Mackie next generation "Active" electronics creates a portable PA System with acoustic attenuation that truly defined as High-Definition.

EAW INSIDE
Each component in the HD1521 has been specifically fined tuned for efficiency and performance. The EAW 15" Neodymium woofer features a 3" voice coil and is built to handle the massive power delivered by the low-frequency Class-D amplifier. The lightweight woofer ensures amazing portability without sacrificing performance. The tweeter is a 1.75" heat treated titanium compression driver. Heat-treating increases the rigidity of the diaphragm, eliminating nasty distortion that can occur due to inconsistencies on its surface. There are so many more features listed in the specifications, but Mackie has truly taken audio to the next level with their HD Series. This package is a sound investment and our technicians top pick!



DEFINE THE EXPERIENCE
Mackie created the “Active” electronics game long ago, incorporating precision crossovers and transducer time/phase alignment processing into the loudspeaker. This instantly took the guesswork out of setting up a perfectly tuned system and the world of loudspeakers irreversibly changed. HD Series High-Definition Powered Loudspeakers not only advance Active technology, they take it to an entirely new level, marking the next major advancement for powered loudspeakers: High-Definition Live Sound.

Horn-loaded drivers tend to have “honkiness” to them and there are physical resonances in the upper range of cone drivers that can sound nasty.

Introducing Mackie High-Definition Audio Processing. The key to high-definition live sound is the detailed measurement and analysis of the inherent problems of horns and woofers. After that, the creation and application of some seriously NASA-esque (and patented) acoustic correction algorithms work to correct these very issues. Vocals become clean and intelligible and the highs are smooth and never harsh. The resulting experience is not only high-definition, it is truly a moment of clarity for anyone within earshot.

FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS
EAW LogoThe HD1221 is a perfectly tuned system that is truly greater than the sum of its parts. Mackie benefits from collaborative engineering efforts with the most high-end, professional gear makers out there. For the HD1221, Mackie worked closely with both Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) and Martin Audio. The engineering team at EAW played a big role in designing this diminutive sonic wonder. They fine-tuned the system for complete optimization and created custom-designed transducers, ensuring maximum efficiency and performance. There’s also an innovative horn design straight from the award-winning engineers at Martin Audio.

The high-end 12" neodymium woofer features a 3" voice coil and is built to handle the massive power delivered by the low-frequency amplifier. The magnet is made using neodymium, which provides a greater magnetic field with far less material. This makes the woofer extremely lightweight without sacrificing one bit of performance. And the large 3" voice-coil is built to handle and dissipate far more heat than traditional designs.

The 1.75" compression driver brilliantly reproduces high-frequencies with a diaphragm made using heat-treated titanium. Heat-treating increases the rigidity of the diaphragm, eliminating nasty distortion that can occur due to inconsistencies on its surface. It also greatly increases the life of the driver, so you can count on stunning high-frequency production for years.

USER-ADJUSTABLE VOICING
The HD1221 delivers professional tone that is easily adjustable to suit the application at hand. On the back, you’ll find a three-position voicing switch which provides the right tone for the job. Leave it in the “Normal” position for standard PA applications. It’s the perfect setting to use when cranking the HD1221 to its optimum volume. The “Contour” position adds a small boost to both the high and low end. This is great for getting the best full-range tone when running at lower levels. And if you’re using the HD1221 as a stage monitor, you’ve got the “Monitor” position, which really lets the vocals cut through a monitor mix while keeping stage rumble and feedback to a minimum.

HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE
The above acoustic wizardry (more LOTR than Harry Potter) has been engineered to fit into one of the smallest, most portable cabinets on the market. It would have been easy enough to simply jam all these premium components into a flimsy enclosure, slapped on a flashy logo and some plastic end caps and called it a day. That’s what everyone else is doing. However, Mackie has long been dedicated to providing affordable gear that can go toe-to-toe with the most expensive gear on the market and the HD1521’s all-wood enclosure is no exception. The 15 mm thick birch plywood cabinets are extremely rugged, with substantial internal bracing and a coating of durable, textured black paint. A cold-rolled, powder-coated steel grill provides a sleek, modern look that is designed to blend into the environment. You can even turn off the trademark blue LED on the front of the speaker if stealth is your thing. A work of modern art? Maybe. Rugged and handsome? Absolutely.

These professional features combine to make the HD1521 one of the most versatile boxes around. It can be easily pole-mounted, either directly onto an HD1501 Powered Subwoofer, or atop a standard tripod. If you’re feeling all fancy, there are 12 integrated flypoints for vertical or horizontal rigging. Not enough flexibility? Fine...the cabinet design also makes the HD1221 one of the best stage monitors available...not only due to the specific monitor voicing mode (see above), but also because of the steep asymmetrical design that directs all that sonic goodness at your head, not your belt buckle.
