Description
One of the most significant technological innovations of the DLM line is Mackie TruSource Technology. It's a potent combination of a brand-new, completely unique, transducer design and powerful proprietary digital signal processing. At the heart of the DLM12 is the extremely compact TruSource driver, which combines the high- and low-frequency driver into a vertically aligned, common-magnet design that is ultra-efficient and extremely capable. The sonic reproduction is incredibly transparent across the entire frequency range.
Drawing on the powerful mixing capabilities of the popular Mackie DL1608, DLM Series loudspeakers feature a powerful integrated digital mixer with all the effects, processing and tools you need for your professional applications. That makes the DLM speakers truly a one-box solution for many applications.
These speakers are ideal for bands, DJs and venues, as their versatility is the only thing that rivals their fidelity. They can be pole-mounted, wall-mounted, flown, stacked and carried. They are lightweight, rugged and sound fantastic.

Best sounding small speaker around.

I've been performing professionally for 31 years. I own and put the QSC, Yamaha, and other competitor products through the paces regularly, and this is hands down my favorite little speaker. Absolutely fantastic tone, volume and features for the size and weight.
Great one to consider

I used this as a center speaker for my Axe-FX to balance out the ADAM studio speakers I already have. This was THE PERFECT addition. The ADAM speakers are great but leave you with too much of a HI-FI type of sound. The DLM has the woofer and tweaker in the same enclosure and that adds a more traditional guitar cab type of sound to my rig. Anyone with an AXE-FX, Line6, etc. should check this out.
DLM8! Great performance

Great stage monitor

My church just got three DLM8s mostly for use as stage monitors. As the usual knob turner (with little experience) I was a little concerned about getting new monitors but I am a believer now. Everything was really clear and cut through with less volume than our old monitors. Plus, the feedback eliminator worked really well and kept me from constantly adjusting during the service. They are light and powerful and we really love them!
