Powerful Sound, Smart DSP, and True Mackie Quality

You can rely on the Mackie DLM12 powered loudspeaker for clear, powerful live sound much more than you'd expect from its small size. That's because the DLM12 boasts 2,000 watts of Class D amplification, powering a custom-designed 12" woofer and 1.75" HF compression driver. It has the power and quality to base your band's PA on, with built-in feedback suppression, six voicing modes, and up to 300ms of delay for alignment in larger speaker arrangements. But its built-in mixer and 16 great-sounding effects make the DLM12 the perfect speaker for solo singer/songwriter performances too. For a powerful and portable PA solution, the Mackie DLM12 powered loudspeaker will exceed your expectations.

Mackie DLM12 Powered Loudspeaker at a Glance:

  • High power and big sound for a wide range of applications

  • Built-in mixer and effects are perfect for solo performances
  • Smart DSP enhances your sound and saves you time
  • True portability, even with your 2-door hatchback
High power and big sound for a wide range of applications

The Mackie DLM12 packs a lot of power - 2,000 watts, to be precise. And its smart design makes it the ideal speaker for many different uses: use a pair as main speakers on speaker poles, wall-mount it as a backfill speaker in your venue, or get a contractor to fly it with standard M10 rigging hardware. It even has a kickstand, so you can angle it back for use as a stage monitor. The DLM12 has the power and flexibility to excel in almost any sound reinforcement situation.

Built-in mixer and effects are perfect for solo performances

While the high power and performance of the DLM12 is perfect as part of your main rig, the flexible XLR/TRS combo inputs and RCA inputs make it a great speaker for solo use. Connect your drum machine, your guitar, or a vocal microphone, and you're ready to go. Plus, you've got 16 built-in effects to polish your sound, and all this without requiring a separate mixer.

Smart DSP enhances your sound and saves you time

The Mackie DLM12 powered loudspeaker is smart. It has multiband feedback suppression, built-in Smart Protect DSP to protect the drivers from signal clipping, and there are six speaker voice modes to help you fine-tune your sound. And once you've got your sound dialed in for a particular room or venue, you can save those settings to one of three memory locations for instant recall the next time you play that room.

True portability, even with your 2-door hatchback

Mackie's DLM12 powered loudspeaker is about 1/3 smaller than most 2-way speakers, and it's unbelievably lightweight at only 30 pounds! Best of all, you can stack multiple DLM12 speakers when you're transporting them, so you can fit a complete DLM rig in virtually any vehicle.

Mackie DLM12 Powered Loudspeaker Features:

  • 2-way, 2,000-watt powered speaker that is 1/3 smaller than most 2-way speakers

  • 12" LF woofer, 1.75" HF compression driver
  • Built-in DSP for feedback suppression, speaker voicing, alignment delay, and more
  • 16 built-in effects including reverb, chorus, and delay, which are perfect for solo use
  • XLR/TRS combo inputs and RCA inputs let you connect microphones and instruments directly for solo use
  • Stackable for storage/transport
  • Ultra-compact design is highly portable
  • Can be pole-mounted, wall-mounted, or flown by a contractor
  • Built-in kickstand lets you angle the speaker for use as a floor monitor
  • 3 memory locations store your DSP/effects/voicing settings for instant recall
  • Amazingly lightweight at only 30 lbs.
The Mackie DLM12 represents a new generation of powerful and portable PA speakers!

Transparent and Loud

Great versatile speakers. So far used them as FRFR speaker with my Kemper.... Works better than expected. Then used it as a 2000 watt monitor wow. Really impressed with how little feedback these speakers create. I have my monitor back behind me and off to the side pointed right into my mic... No Feedback.
31 lbs.... People won't believe what these small speakers can do.

Awesome investment!

This is a great system and great addition to my gig rigs. The sound of my backing track and keyboard is clear and tight. I was also impressed by its flexible onboard digital mixer! It's compact size was also my deciding factor.

Great Speaker

I sold my JBL EON g2 when I bought these. Half the weight, so much more power and they sound better. What more could you ask for? I didn't give it a 5 cause the reverb is not my favorite but I use rack gear for that anyway.

Loud clear and crazy portable

Finally replaced my older Mackie setup for my church. Man, these guys are small, but they put my old system to shame. Vocals were clear and more articulate than anything I've heard and there was more than enough power with two DLM12s a two of the DLM subs. Our worship band can now play to bigger audiences when out of the church.

And, like I said, they are crazy portable. A whole system with mixer and everything fit into my civic hatchback and I can load everything myself if I need to.

Big thumbs up to Mackie for these compact little wonders!!!
