Reviews for Mackie SA1530Z 3-Way Active Loudspeaker (1300 Watts, 1x15 in.)
Feature: The cabinet is built pretty solid, quality connectors and all. But come on guys, this speaker weighs 111 lbs.- it would be awesome to have some wheels on the bottom so you could tilt it back and roll it around! The 4 handles come in handy though.
Quality: only reason it's not getting a 10 is becuase one of the handles (the bottom one) had one of its screws missing- come on!
Value: Definately get what you pay for here- and you're getting a killer 3-way, self-powered speaker), though it is a bit pricey for the starving musician...
Desirability: It looks awesome! I love the new silver colored grilles and the blue LED on the front is always a plus! You now have 4 LEDs on the back (power, signal, limit, and thermal)- very nice addition!
Sound: You can't beat a 3-way speaker in terms of sound quality, especially with the vocals in the crucial mid-range.
Ease of Use: Let's see: 1. connect power 2. connect line-level XLR from mixer output 3. flick the power switch. enough said.
Support: Haven't had to deal with them yet, and this is my second pair of Mackie speakers.
Overall: I plan on keeping these for as long as they last, which appears it will be a very long time. The first set of mackies I got were purchased 2nd hand, and the only problem I've had with them so far is that the connector to one of the speakers came off during transport, but it was an easy fix.
