Mackie DRM Series Powered Loudspeaker
DRM is Mackie's professional powered range, and what sets it apart from the company's cheaper boxes is the processing. Advanced Impulse DSP handles precision crossovers and transducer time alignment so response stays consistent across the band, and the DRM Control Dashboard puts configuration, EQ, and metering behind one knob and a high-contrast full-color display rather than a row of dip switches. Venue modes cover Live, Monitor, Club, and Speech, with an independent Sub option and a variable crossover, plus a three-band parametric EQ, alignment delay, and a real-time amplifier temperature readout.
The two-way cabinets pair a high-excursion woofer with a 1.4-inch titanium-diaphragm compression driver on 1600 W of Class-D: the DRM212 at 134 dB max SPL, the DRM215 at 135 dB. The DRM315 is the three-way, 2300 W and 137 dB, with a rotatable waveguide so it can be flown horizontally without losing coverage. The DRM12A is the constant-curvature array module, 2000 W with a triple 1-inch titanium compression driver array and 20 degrees vertical by 110 degrees horizontal coverage. All are ported so the airflow cools the amplifier, and the two-way models have a dual-angle pole mount.
