The Mackie DLM8 is an 8" powered loudspeaker whose features list is one thing, but whose spectacular sound quality is truly its greatest feature of all.
Mackie's DLM Series powered speakers represent the combination of power, fidelity and portability that have placed Mackie among the most respected brands in professional audio. The DLM series speakers additionally feature a fully capable digital mixer that is integrated right into the speaker box.
One of the most significant technological innovations of the DLM line is Mackie TruSource Technology. It's a potent combination of a brand new, completely unique, transducer design and powerful proprietary digital signal processing. At the heart of the DLM12 is the extremely compact TruSource driver, which combines the high and low-frequency driver into a vertically-aligned, common-magnet design that is ultra-efficient and extremely capable. The sonic reproduction is incredibly transparent across the entire frequency range.
Drawing on the powerful mixing capabilities of the popular Mackie DL1608, DLM Series loudspeakers feature a powerful integrated digital mixer with all the effects, processing and tools you need for your professional applications. That makes the DLM speakers truly a one-box solution for many applications.
These speakers are ideal for bands, DJs and venues, as their versatility is the only thing that rivals their fidelity. They can be pole-mounted, wall-mounted, flown, stacked, and carried. They are lightweight, rugged and sound fantastic.
