Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Mackie SRM1801 subwoofer. Mackie’s SRM Series powered loudspeakers achieve the
perfect balance of power, portability, and sound quality. Designed by the same team that produced the best-selling
Mackie SRM450v2, the SRM1801 delivers real power in a design that is extremely lightweight and portable. The
SRM1801 incorporates Mackie-standard professional components like efficient Class-D Fast Recovery™ amplifiers
and system-optimizing Active electronics so that everything sounds great right out of the box.
The SRM1801 all-wood enclosure has a ported bass reflex design that produces tight low end. And the
lightweight, ultra-efficient Class-D Fast Recovery™ power amplifier delivers 1000W peak power with less risk of
thermal overload. This makes the sub extremely lightweight and portable without compromising the power and
performance that you deserve. Pair this power with our proven built-in Active electronics, including a precision
crossover and tuning filters, and you get professional low end that you can feel...custom tuned to be tight and
punchy.
Pair the SRM1801 with the best-selling SRM450v2 and you have a complete (and completely affordable) “plug
and play” system that is ideal for small clubs, DJs and rehearsal spaces. The SRM1801 has both full-range and
high-pass stereo outputs for connection to full-range top boxes. Just dial in the appropriate level and use the
polarity switch to make sure the sub is in phase with the loudspeakers. The integrated pole-cup can accommodate
a standard mounting pole, so your favorite speaker has a nice place to sit. Or you can just stack your full-range box
right on top of the sub...the SRM1801 ain’t picky.
So if you are looking for an extremely powerful, professional and great sounding PA setup that is simple to use
and easy on the wallet, then you’re in the right place.
