Mackie: The All-New DRM Series

Mackie: The All-New DRM Series

Mackie has built a legacy for themselves as a company that offers remarkable speaker systems for equally remarkable prices, and today they have continued on with that tradition, having just released their DRM series loudspeakers.  This line aims to fill nearly all speaker applications a venue or artist could have.   There will be five available models, the DRM212, DRM215, DRM315, DRM12A, and the DRM18S, all available in passive and active configurations.  Each speaker features extensive EQ and sound control with the high resolution color display and single control knob.  Intuitive and complete I/O makes for systems that can cover all your needs, and Mackie’s DSP module makes for gorgeous sound reproduction that leaves nothing to be asked for.

The DRM212 and DRM 215 models are simple but powerful 2-way loudspeakers, 12″ and 15″, while the DRM315 offers a 3-way 15″ option, all with an 1/8″ aux input included.  Each is designed for standing or floor monitor applications.  For any install and array needs, the DRM12A model is arrayable with 2000 W power and parallel XLR I/O.  And lastly, but most certainly not least, the DRM18S is the subwoofer of the series, an 18″ behemoth of bass that also packs 2000 W of power and max SPL of 135 dB.

Every model in the series is also flyable via 8 flypoints for the DRM212 and 215, 12 for the DRM315 and 7 on the DRM12A.  For the 18S sub, a flyware kit is offered by Mackie.  All models are pole-mountable and have covers available as well.

This series looks to have much promise, versatility and overall quality, even more so than Mackie’s previous products.  Available February, MSRP is as follows: $999.99 for the DRM212, $1099.99 for the DRM215, $1499.99 for the DRM315, $2099.99 for the DRM12A, and $1499.99 for the DRM18S.  For additional information, check out Mackie’s site and the video below.
