(OSHA) has specified the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following
chart.
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits could result in
some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound
pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of
producing high sound pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is
in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn
when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure
is in excess of the limits set forth here:

Thrash212 GO 12″ Battery-Powered Loudspeaker
Introduction
Thrash212 GO is a full-size, battery-powered loudspeaker that delivers
professional sound, anywhere.
Getting Started
The following steps will help you set up the Thrash212 GO quickly.
Forget long power cable runs–the swappable, rechargeable battery lasts up to 10 hours, so you can take your music to new places.
1. Make all initial connections with the power switches OFF on all equipment. Make sure the master volume, level and gain controls are all the way down.
With onboard Bluetooth® connectivity, you can link to a second Thrash212 GO in stereo for a completely wireless music streaming system.
2. If not using a subwoofer, connect the outputs from the mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs on the rear panel of the loudspeakers.
Thrash212 GO offers Mackie-level performance thanks to ultra-efficient Class-D amplification and specially selected components for high-output punch and clear sound despite running on a battery.
3. If using a subwoofer, connect the outputs from the mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs on the subwoofer, then connect the high pass outputs from the subwoofer to the inputs of the loudspeakers.
Whether you’re at a beach wedding or in a 100-year-old building with
questionable wiring, you’ll always be prepared to go off the grid with the
Thrash212 GO.
How to Use This Manual:
After this introduction, a getting started guide will help you get things set
up fast. The hookup diagrams show some typical Thrash212 GO loudspeaker
setups, including some that involve a Mackie subwoofer.
This icon marks information that is critically important or unique! For your
own good, read and remember them…it is a good idea to pay special attention to
these areas in the Owner’s Manual marked with the “VERY IMPORTANT” hand icon.
There’s an illustration of a microscope, so, of course, you’re going to get
more detailed information when you see this little guy. There are explanations
of features and practical tips listed here. It’s a good idea to pay attention
to text displayed next to a note icon, as this icon draws attention to certain
features and functions relating to the usage of the Thrash212 GO.
4. Push the line cord securely into the subwoofer’s / loudspeaker’s IEC
connectors and plug the other ends into grounded AC outlets. The
subwoofer/loudspeaker may accept the appropriate voltage as indicated near the
IEC connector. 5. Turn the mixer (or other signal source) on. 6. Turn the
subwoofer on (if applicable). 7. Turn the loudspeakers on. 8. Make sure the
loudspeaker’s channel gain knob(s) are set to mic or line. 9. Be sure that the
volume of the input is the same as it would be during normal use. 10. Start
the signal source and raise the mixer’s main L/R fader up to a comfortably
loud listening level.
Things to Remember:
· Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods. Please see the Safety
Instructions on page 2 for information on hearing protection.
Please write the serial numbers here for future reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return authorization, make dad proud, etc.)
· As a general guide, the mixer (or other signal source) should be turned on first, subwoofers next, and the Thrash212 GO last. As such, the Thrash212 GO should also be turned off first, followed by the subwoofers, then the mixer. This will reduce the possibility of any turn-on or turn-off thumps and other noises generated by any upstream equipment from coming out of the speakers.
Purchased at: Date of purchase:
· Save the shipping boxes and packing materials! You may need them someday.
Besides, the cats will love playing in them and jumping out at you
unexpectedly. Remember to pretend like you are surprised!
· Save your sales receipt in a safe place.

Hookup Diagrams
Thrash212 GO loudspeakers are the perfect tool for singer-songwriters touring
the local coffee shops. Bring your favorite axe and mic, Thrash212 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 Thrash212 GO, used for monitoring purposes. The gain knob
should be set to mic.
Now grab your axe and plug it directly into the channel 2 input. Or if you use
effects, connect the guitar to the effects input and another cable from the
effects output to the channel 2 input. The gain knob should be set to line.
Another Thrash212 GO loudspeaker will be used for the main PA. Simply connect
a cable from the Thrash212 GO monitor’s THRU jack to the Thrash212 GO PA’s
channel 1 input.

Thrash212 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 Thrash212 GO. The gain knob should be set to mic.
Additionally, a phone is connected via Bluetooth for music playback. Make sure
that the volume of the phone is up!
Another Thrash212 GO loudspeaker will be used for extra “punch”. Simply
connect a cable from the first Thrash212 GO’s THRU jack to the other Thrash212
GO’s channel 1 input. The gain knob of this input should be set to line.

Thrash212 GO loudspeakers may be daisy-chained via the male XLR connector
labeled “THRU”. Simply plug the signal source (i.e., mixer output or
microphone) into the input jack(s), and patch that loudspeaker’s thru jack to
the next loudspeaker’s input jack, and so on, daisy-chaining multiple
Thrash212 GO loudspeakers. See above for visual representations of daisy-
chaining.
NOTE: Make sure to set the gain knob(s) correctly. In the top diagram, all
channel 1 inputs are set to “LINE” and in the bottom diagram, input channel 1
of the first Thrash212 GO is set to “MIC”, but the remaining ones should be
set to “LINE”. Keep in mind that these “MIC” and “LINE” markings are for
reference only and may need to be raised or lower.

1. Power Connection
This is a standard 3-prong IEC power connector. Connect the detachable power
cord (included in the packaging with the Thrash212 GO) to the power
receptacle, and plug the other end of the power cord into an AC outlet.
Make sure that the AC power is matched to the AC power indicated on the rear
panel (near the IEC receptacle). Disconnecting the plug’s ground pin is
dangerous. Don’t do it!

In addition to accepting a balanced mic signal using an XLR connector, these
input channels may also accept 1/4″ line-level signals driven by balanced or
unbalanced sources.
To connect balanced lines to these inputs, use a 1/4″ Tip-Ring-Sleeve (TRS)
plug. “TRS” stands for Tip-Ring-Sleeve, the three connection points available
on a stereo 1/4″ or balanced phone jack or plug. TRS jacks and plugs are used
for balanced signals and are wired as follows: 1/4″ TRS Balanced Mono Wiring:

2. Power Switch
Press the top side of this rocker switch inwards to turn on the Thrash212 GO.
Press the bottom side of this rocker switch inwards to turn off the Thrash212
GO.
As a general guide, the mixer (or other signal source) should be turned on
first, subwoofers next, and loudspeakers last. As such, the loudspeakers
should also be turned off first, followed by the subwoofers, then the mixer.
This will reduce the possibility of any turn-on or turn-off thumps and other
noises generated by any upstream equipment from coming out of the speakers.
To connect unbalanced lines to these inputs, use a 1/4″ mono (TS) phone plug,
wired as follows:

4. Gain Knobs
If you haven’t already, please read the “Quick Start” section on page 4.
Setting the gain correctly will ensure that the preamplifier’s gain is not too
high, where distortion could occur, and not too low, where the quieter,
exquisitely-delicate passages might be lost in background noise.
The gain knobs in conjunction with the overload LED adjust the input
sensitivity of the mic and line inputs. This allows signals from the outside
world to be adjusted to run through each channel at optimal internal operating
levels.
If connecting mixer outputs to Thrash212 GO inputs, set the gain knobs to 9:00
[“LINE”] for optimal sound and performance.
Keep in mind that these “MIC” and “LINE” markings are for reference only and
may need to be raised or lower.
6. Main Volume Knob
The level knob adjusts the overall signal level at the input to the built-in
power amplifiers. It ranges from off ( ) to MAX (maximum gain).
· Thrash212 GO is designed to operate with a +4 dBu average line signal when
the main knob and the line input gain are at the center position.
· Thrash212 GO may accept up to a +20 dBu line signal by turning down the line
input gain accordingly.
· Turning the main knob past center position will provide enough gain to
connect a microphone directly. Most microphones will want the knob somewhere
around the 9:00 position. For safety, if you’re plugging in a mic, start with
the volume off and gradually rotate it clockwise until you achieve the desired

5. Thru Jack
This is a balanced male XLR-type connector that produces a mono-summed pre-DSP
mix from all input jacks. It is not affected by the main volume. Use it to
connect an additional Thrash212 GO or subwoofer off of the same signal source.
It is wired as follows, according to standards specified by the AES (Audio
Engineering Society): Balanced XLR Output Connector Pin 1 Shield (ground)

7. 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 Thrash212 GO via Bluetooth! Read on…
Upon powering up the Thrash212 GO, the Bluetooth function is either:
(1) In sleep mode. See Pairing and connecting for the first time’ (below) or… (2) …Paired and connected. See
Previously paired and connected devices’ (also
below).
Pairing and connecting for the first time: To enter pairing mode, press and
hold the pair switch
down for two to three seconds. The LED will illuminate and slow flash blue for
approximately 60 seconds while in pairing mode. [The LED will continue to
flash until it has successfully paired and connected].
While Thrash212 GO is in pairing mode, simultaneously scan for Bluetooth
devices on your device. You should see Thrash212 GO appear in the list of
“available devices”. Select it by tapping it. From there, your Bluetooth
device should indicate that it is successfully connected. Additionally, the
pair button will stop flashing and remain solid blue. If it does not, start
the pairing process again, and make sure that Thrash212 GO and your device are
both in pairing mode at the same time.

Previously paired and connected devices: The Bluetooth connection will
disconnect
if it’s out of range or if Thrash212 GO is powered off. Previously paired and
connected devices will automatically reconnect and the pair button will once
again illuminate a brilliant blue.
To drop the device from being paired with the Thrash212 GO, press and hold the
`Bluetooth Pair’ button down for two to three seconds.
The Bluetooth connection may disconnect when affected by electrostatic
discharge (ESD) or electrical fast transients (EFT). If this occurs, manually
reconnect the Bluetooth connection. If a phone or two different phones
have been paired via Bluetooth with two Thrash212 GO loudspeakers, they will
not link. The options are either (1) one phone connected via Bluetooth and
Thrash212 GO loudspeakers may be linked or (2) two phones connected via
Bluetooth to two different Thrash212 GO loudspeakers and they may be not be
linked.
7 8 9 10
To unlink: In order to unlink the two Thrash212 GO
loudspeakers, press and hold the `Link’ momentary switch / LED down on one of
the Thrash212 GO loudspeakers until the blue LED turns off. The other
Thrash212 GO will automatically unlink and the LEDs on both units will turn
off.
If a phone or two different phones have been paired via Bluetooth with two
Thrash212 GO loudspeakers, they will not link. The options are either (1) one
phone connected via Bluetooth and Thrash212 GO loudspeakers may be linked or
(2) two phones connected via Bluetooth to two different Thrash212 GO
loudspeakers and they may be not be linked.
9. Battery LED
This tri-colored LED displays the remaining battery life. The battery life
meter is silkscreened on the rear panel just below the channel 2 combo jack.
The percentages are also listed below:
· Green = 20% 100% battery life remaining · Yellow = 5% 20% battery life
remaining · Red = less than 5% battery life remaining · Flashing = Battery
charging · No LED = No battery detected
8. Speaker Link
Two Thrash212 GO loudspeakers may either be linked together or separate (i.e.
not linked).
To link: In order to link two Thrash212 GO loudspeakers,
press and hold the Link’ momentary switch / LED down on the primary Thrash212 GO loudspeaker until the blue LED illuminates and begins slow-flashing. Within (approximately) 60 seconds, a quick press and release of the
Link’
button on the secondary Thrash212 GO allows both units to “see” each other,
handshake and link. The LEDs on both units will stop flashing and remain
solid, indicating great success!.
The Thrash212 GO loudspeakers will continue to auto-link on every power-up.

10. Power / Overload LED
This dual-colored LED will illuminate green when the loudspeaker is turned on,
as a reminder of how on it really is. If it is not on, then it is off, and the
loudspeaker becomes a rather nice weight for keeping your morning newspaper
from blowing away in the wind.
If it does not turn on, make sure that (1) the power cord is correctly
inserted at both ends, the local AC mains supply is active and the power
switch is on, or (2) the battery has life if not going the electric route.
Thrash212 GO also has a built-in limiter that helps to prevent the amplifier
outputs from clipping or overdriving the transducers. The LED illuminates red
when the limiter is activated. If this occurs, turn down the gain knob.
Excessive limiting may lead to overheating, which in turn trips the thermal
protect circuitry and interrupts the performance. See `Thermal Protection’ on
page 13 for more information.

Final Thoughts
Just a few final thoughts before we dive into a little more boring
“techy”-type stuff.
Factory Reset
Let’s also talk factory resets. Since settings may be changed via Thump
Connect 2, it may be necessary to reset the Thrash212 GO to its factory
settings.
There are two kinds of resets: · Soft Reset Just a simple power cycle will
reset all settings that were previously set via the rear panel back to their
default settings (except for Bluetooth and linked speakers that are stored
within Thrash212 GO). · Hard Reset A hard reset resets the entire unit to
its factory default, including auto-connect and auto-link.
Battery Replacement
The Lithium-Ion Battery allows you to use Thrash212 GO without the need to be
plugged in or wasting money on expensive batteries.
SAFETY FIRST: Before installing and using this product, please read these
instructions carefully. Failure to follow the precautions may result in
damage, injury, or even death.
1. WARNING: The battery (battery or batteries or battery pack) shall not be
exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
2. CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type.
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.
For starters, the loudspeaker needs to be powered on. Then, holding both the
pair and link buttons (while either is engaged) clears all paired devices and
previously linked speakers.
Be sure to power down any amps and/or powered speakers before resetting
Thrash212 GO. If you use the factory default key combination, you are also
wiping the Thrash212 GO’s memory of previously paired devices. To remedy this,
on your phone, tablet or other Bluetooth device, you will need to `forget
device’ in the Bluetooth settings, then re-pair in order to regain
communication and functionality.
BATTERY / COVER REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS: Unplug Thrash212 GO and set it down with the grille side facing down on a soft, flat surface. Using a flathead or Phillips screwdriver, rotate the two locking tabs counter-clockwise until they unlock and the compartment is ready for removal. The battery compartment is located underneath the power connector. Remove the battery compartment cover and set it aside.

Thrash212 GO: Rear Panel Features continued…
As seen below, the removable battery is surrounded by the dotted line.
BATTERY
There are finger grips on each side of the battery. Remove the battery from
captivity by lifting it straight up to freedom.
BATTERY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Once the battery cover and battery have
been removed and set aside, it’s time to insert a different one.
NOTE: Do not force the battery into place. There is only one way it fits and
there should be no resistance during installation. As seen in the drawing
above, a horizontal power connector is located in the lower-left corner from
where the battery was removed. Line up the power connector of the battery with
the power connector of Thrash212 GO and press down. Again, this is an easy
process; no force is necessary. Replace the battery cover and lock it to the
Thrash212 GO by rotating the two locking tabs clockwise until they lock into
place. When not in use, the spare battery (purchased separately) may be
charged by plugging the included wall adapter into the power receptacle of the
battery and the other side into a live AC outlet. The battery will also charge
while inside a plugged-in Thrash212 GO.
Protection Circuitry
Thrash212 GO employs a built-in limiter for less distortion at peak levels. A
dynamic bass response circuit provides optimal low frequency response
regardless of overall output level. Additional protection includes automatic
thermal shutdown should the amp overheat. However, with Class-D amp
technology, which is highly-efficient, this should never be a problem.
The protection circuits are designed to protect it under reasonable and
sensible conditions. Should you choose to ignore the warning signs [e.g.
excessive distortion], you can still damage the woofer in the loudspeaker by
overdriving it past the point of amplifier clipping. Such damage is beyond the
scope of the warranty.
Limiting
Let’s take a peek under the hood at the titanium high-frequency driver.
Compared to other available drivers, these provide a substantially smoother
high-frequency response which results in a studio monitor level of accuracy
and clarity. Furthermore, these drivers offer an insanely smooth transient
response behavior. Yes, we, too, are fans of our own products!
Continuing on, the driver has its own compression circuit which helps protect
it from damaging transient peaks. The compressor is designed to be transparent
and is not noticeable under normal operating conditions.
Overexcursion Protection
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. Thrash212 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.
When the amplifier has cooled down to a safe operating temperature, the
thermal switch resets itself, and the Thrash212 GO resumes normal operation.
If the thermal switch activates, try turning down the level control a notch or
two on the mixing console (or via the main volume knob) to avoid overheating
the amplifier. Be aware that direct sunlight and/or hot stage lights may be
the culprit of an amplifier overheating.
Owner’s Manual 13
Thrash212 GO 12″ Battery-Powered Loudspeaker
AC Power
Be sure the Thrash212 GO is plugged into an outlet that is able to supply the
correct voltage. It will continue to operate at lower voltages, but will not
reach full power. Be sure the electrical service can supply enough amperage
for all the components connected to it.
We recommend that a stiff (robust) supply of AC power be used because the
amplifiers place high current demands on the AC line. The more power that is
available on the line, the louder the speaker will play and the more peak
output power will be available for a cleaner, punchier bass. A suspected
problem of “poor bass performance” is often caused by a weak AC supply to the
amplifiers.
Never remove the ground pin on the power cord or any other component of the
Thrash212 GO. This is very dangerous.
Care and Maintenance
Your Thrash212 GO will provide many years of reliable service if you follow
these guidelines:
· Avoid exposing it to moisture. If it is set up outdoors, be sure it is under
cover if rain is expected.
· Avoid exposure to extreme cold (below freezing temperatures). If you must
operate in a cold environment, warm up the voice coils slowly by sending a
low-level signal through them for about 15 minutes prior to high-power
operation.
· Use a dry cloth to clean the cabinet. Only do this when the power is turned
off. Avoid getting moisture into any of the openings of the cabinet,
particularly where the drivers are located.
Placement
WARNING: Installation should only be done by an experienced technician.
Improper installation may result in damage to the equipment, injury or while
highly unlikely death. Make sure that the Thrash212 GO is installed in a
stable and secure way in order to avoid any conditions that may be dangerous
for persons or structures. Thrash212 GO is designed to sit on the floor or
stage as the main PA or as monitors. They may also be pole-mounted via the
built-in socket on the bottom of the cabinet. Be sure the pole is capable of
supporting the weight of the loudspeaker. The T100 is a great tripod option
and the SPM200 (unthreaded) or SPM400 (threaded) is a nice choice when using a
subwoofer. Thrash212 GO does not have any fly points and may NOT be flown.
NEVER attempt to suspend a Thrash212 GO by its handles. Check to make sure
that the support surface (e.g. floor, etc.) has the necessary mechanical
characteristics to support the weight of the loudspeaker(s). When pole-
mounting loudspeakers, be sure that they are stabilized and secured from
falling over or being accidentally pushed over. Failure to follow these
precautions may result in damage to the equipment, personal injury, or death.
Thrash212 GO may also be laid out horizontally as monitors for the band at a
45° angle (as seen below). It is intended to be used only when the speaker is
in its wedge configuration and works best when on a hard work surface, like a
stage.
As seen above, the Running Man logo is rotatable for when the loudspeaker is
used as a monitor!
As with any powered components, protect them from moisture. Avoid installing
the loudspeaker in places exposed to harsh weather conditions. If you are
setting them up outdoors, make sure they are under cover if you expect rain.

Thrash212 GO 12″ Battery-Powered Loudspeaker
Room Acoustics
Thrash212 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 Thrash212 GO helps to
minimize the problems that typically arise.
Here are some additional placement tips to help overcome some typical room
problems that might arise:
· Placing loudspeakers in the corners of a room increases the low frequency
output and can cause the sound to be muddy and indistinct.
· Placing loudspeakers against a wall increases the low frequency output,
though not as much as corner placement. However, this is a good way to
reinforce the low frequencies, if so desired.
· Avoid placing the speakers directly on a hollow stage floor. A hollow stage
can resonate at certain frequencies, causing peaks and dips in the frequency
response of the room. It is better to place them on a sturdy stand designed to
handle the weight of the loudspeaker.
· Position the loudspeakers so the high-frequency drivers are two to four feet
above ear level for the audience (making allowances for an audience that may
be standing/dancing in the aisles). High frequencies are highly directional
and tend to be absorbed much easier than lower frequencies. By providing
direct line-of-sight from the loudspeakers to the audience, you increase the
overall brightness and intelligibility of the sound system.
· Highly reverberant rooms, like many gymnasiums and auditoriums, are a
nightmare for sound system intelligibility. Multiple reflections off the hard
walls, ceiling, and floor play havoc with the sound. Depending on the
situation, you may be able to take some steps to minimize the reflections,
such as putting carpeting on the floors, closing draperies to cover large
glass windows, or hanging tapestries or other materials on the walls to absorb
some of the sound.
However, in most cases, these remedies are not possible or practical. So what
do you do? Making the sound system louder generally doesn’t work because the
reflections become louder, too. The best approach is to provide as much direct
sound coverage to the audience as possible. The farther away you are from the
speaker, the more prominent will be the reflected sound.
Use more speakers strategically placed so they are closer to the back of the
audience. If the distance between the front and back speakers is more than
about 100 feet, you should use an external delay processor to time-align the
sound. (Since sound travels about 1 foot per millisecond, it takes about 1/10
of a second to travel 100 feet.)

Appendix A: Service Information
If you think your Thrash212 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 loudspeaker.
Troubleshooting
No power
· Our favorite question: Is it plugged in and/or is the battery charged? Make
sure the AC outlet is live [check with a tester or lamp].
· Our next favorite question: Is the power switch on? If not, try turning it
on.
· Make sure the line cord is securely seated in the line cord socket and
plugged all the way into the AC outlet.
· Is the power LED on the front panel illuminated? If not, make sure the AC
outlet is live. If so, refer to “No sound” below.
· The internal AC line fuse may be blown. This is not a user serviceable part.
If you suspect the AC line fuse is blown, please see the “Repair” section
next.
use both outputs of a stereo synth (which sums to mono, anyway), etc.
Noise
· Make sure all connections to the Thrash212 GO are good and sound.
· Make sure none of the signal cables are routed near AC cables, power
transformers, or other EMI-inducing devices.
· Is there a light dimmer or other SCR-based device on the same AC circuit as
the Thrash212 GO? Use an AC line filter or plug the loudspeaker into a
different AC circuit.
Hum
· Try disconnecting the cable connected to the input jack. If the noise
disappears, it could be a “ground loop,” rather than a problem with the
Thrash212 GO. Try some of the following troubleshooting ideas:
· Use balanced connections throughout your system for the best noise
rejection.
· Whenever possible, plug all the audio equipment’s line cords into outlets
which share a common ground. The distance between the outlets and the common
ground should be as short as possible.
No sound
· Is the level knob for the input source turned all the way down? Verify that
all the volume controls in the system are properly adjusted. Look at the level
meter to ensure that the mixer is receiving a signal.
· Is the signal source working? Make sure the connecting cables are in good
repair and securely connected at both ends. Make sure the output level control
on the mixing console is turned up sufficiently to drive the inputs of the
speaker.
Bluetooth / Linking Issues
· Sometimes a good `ol fashioned reset works wonders. There are two types,
soft and hard. See page 12 for more info on resetting Thrash212 GO.
· Try linking two Thrash212 GO loudspeakers together
prior to connecting via Bluetooth.
· Be sure to connect the Bluetooth device to the primary Thrash212 GO
loudspeaker.
· Make sure the mixer does not have a mute on or a processor loop engaged. If
you find something like this, make sure the level is turned down before
disengaging the offending switch.
· Has it shut down? Make sure there is at least six inches of free space
behind each Thrash212 GO.
Poor sound
· Is it loud and distorted? Make sure that you’re not overdriving a stage in
the signal chain. Verify that all level controls are set properly.
· Is the input connector plugged completely into the jack? Be sure all connections are secure.
· Are there phasing issues? The signal source should only be connected to a single input. For example, do not connect the L/R outputs from a mixer to the Thrash212 GO channel 1 and 2 inputs. Do not use a Y cable to split a phone’s signal,
