Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker Introduction So, you need the sound of a powerful, professional loudspeaker with the portability of a boom box? Meet Thump GO; the take-it-anywhere, Bluetooth® equipped, ultra-flexible, battery-powered loudspeaker. Built to make your life a whole lot easier, Thump GO offers lightning-fast setup and simple-yet-powerful sound processing, plus flexible inputs, Bluetooth® streaming, and wireless control via the Thump Connect 2 app.
Owner’s Manual Hookup Diagrams Thump GO loudspeakers are the perfect tool for singer-songwriters touring the local coffee shops. Bring your favorite axe and mic, Thump GO loudspeakers and cables and power cords. In this example, a Mackie EM-89D dynamic microphone is connected to the channel 1 input of a Thump GO, used for monitoring purposes. The gain knob should be set to mic and the mic/line switch engaged (mic). Now grab your axe and plug it directly into the channel 2 input.
Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker Hookup Diagrams continued… Thump GO loudspeakers are great for house parties, BBQs, karaoke competitions and picnics, too! In this example, we connected a Mackie EM-89D dynamic microphone to the channel 1 input of a Thump GO. The gain knob should be set to mic and the mic/line switch engaged (mic). Additionally, a phone is connected to channel 2’s 1/8" input for music playback. The gain knob of this input should be set to line.
Owner’s Manual Hookup Diagrams continued… USB 3-4 USB 1-2 MUTE MUTE MUTE MUTE MUTE MUTE MUTE In this example, a ProFX10v3 mixer is connected directly to two Thump GO loudspeakers. It is the perfect setup for a small club. Simply connect the L/R outputs of the ProFX10v3 mixer to the channel 1 input of each Thump GO loudspeaker. The gain knob on both should be set to Line.

Thump GO: Rear Panel Features 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 Thump Connect 2 App The Thump GO is designed to be used in conjunction with the Thump Connect 2 App. With it, all of the hardware features listed here – and more! – may be controlled remotely via Bluetooth connection. The only thing the Thump Connect 2 App can’t do is turn the Thump GO on and off. More information about the Thump Connect 2 App may be found by visiting the Thump Connect 2 App Reference Guide. 1.
Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker Thump GO: Rear Panel Features continued... 4. 1/8" Input Jack [Ch. 2] This input channel may accept an 1/8" line-level signal from a phone, tablet, MP3 player, or other signal source. NEVER connect the output of an amplifier directly to a Thump GO’s input jack. This could damage the input circuitry. The 1/8" line-level connection may be used simultaneously with channel 2’s combo jack – XLR or 1/4" – and/or Bluetooth connection.
Thump GO: Rear Panel Features continued... • MONITOR Voicing Mode – Monitor mode was tailored to reduce excess low frequency output when coupled with the ground, while also reducing mid-range bite for the artist(s). This mode should only be engaged when the speaker is in its monitor orientation on a stage or floor... if not, the low-end will sound very lean. • SUB Voicing Mode – This mode rolls off a little bit of the low end so you get approximately 3 dB of extra output from the Thump GO.
Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker Thump GO: Rear Panel Features continued... 14. Bluetooth / Pair While not a “physical” connection, stereo channel 3/4 is considered the Bluetooth channel and its volume is raised and lowered via the device. This is how to connect your device to the Thump GO via Bluetooth! Read on... Upon powering up the Thump GO, the Bluetooth function is either: (1) In sleep mode. See ‘Pairing and connecting for the first time’ (below) or... (2) ...Paired and connected.
Final Thoughts 16. Overload LED Just a few final thoughts before we dive into a little more boring “techy”-type stuff. For starters, we would like to remind you once again that Thump GO works great on its own, but when paired and connected with a device using the Thump Connect 2 app, your world of possibilities really opens up! Excessive limiting may lead to overheating, which in turn trips the thermal protect circuitry and interrupts the performance.
Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker 3. No open flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus. WARNING: When installing this product, always respect the safety standard. Do not install the product in any way that is not described in these instructions. BATTERY / COVER REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS: Unplug Thump GO and set it upside down on a soft, flat surface.
A subsonic filter circuit just prior to the power amplifier prevents ultra-low frequencies from being amplified. Excessive low-frequency energy can damage the woofer by causing it to “bottom out,” also know as overexcursion, which is equivalent to a mechanical form of clipping. Thermal Protection All amplifiers produce heat. Thump GO is designed to be efficient both electrically and thermally. In the unlikely event of the amplifier overheating, a built-in thermal switch will activate, muting the signal.
Thump GO 8" Portable Battery-Powered Loudspeaker 16 Room Acoustics Thump GO is designed to sound fantastic in nearly every application. But, room acoustics play a crucial role in the overall performance of a sound system. However, the wide high-frequency dispersion of Thump GO helps to minimize the problems that typically arise.
If you think your Thump GO has a problem, please check out the following troubleshooting tips and do your best to confirm the problem. Visit the Support section of our website (www.mackie.com/support) where you will find lots of useful information such as FAQs and other documentation. You may find the answer to the problem without having to part with your Thump GO. Troubleshooting No power • Our favorite question: Is it plugged in? Make sure the AC outlet is live [check with a tester or lamp].
