Well I have to bring it to light, mackie came through and really pleased me on this one.

Some of you know that I've been fighting with my subs from them for a couple months now and I've been a bit pissed off that things kept happening.

That being said, the last round Mackie paid and shipped (overnight) both of my subs to a Mackie distribution center in GA where they replaced the amps, speakers and the little LEDs in both speakers. Amp boards of course were mackies, but the speakers are Eminence cabs. They shipped all the parts same/day overnight, and then paid for the subs to be shipped overnight to my house.

The kicker- 1 sub wasn't even under warranty.

Now that I have both of them, I have to admit, I absolutely LOVE these little things. Theyre compact, light and pack a very powerful punch for their size. I'll probably never use these at a school again now that I have several 18's but for weddings they're perfect.

Way to go Mackie.
 
atleast they used Eminence versus Chinese mystery meat drivers. They were great with the RCF drivers and probably very comparable with the Eminence swap. Too bad they dont improve the recent Chines models as well as the SRM 450 Blue Light specials.

Ain't that the truth. Perhaps they grew tired of replacing cheap parts with more cheap parts. :)

You'd all understand if you heard what I said to Mackie Service Representative Scott Paterson on my last phone call after the 4th blowing of the subs. Hopefully it'll become a trend and they'll start servicing all their products this way.
 
Yeah i mean $500 won't buy much in this industry, couple cables and a few rolls of gaffing tape. We'll see, they're working the longest they've worked in a year or so right now.
