Mackie SRM215 V-Class 2000W 15 Inch Powered Speaker

The Mackie SRM215 V-Class is a self-powered 15-inch loudspeaker designed for portable PA, DJ playback, live music, presentations, and stage-monitor duties. Its built-in amplification and mixer reduce the amount of external equipment needed for a working sound system. Connect microphones, line-level gear, instruments, or a stereo playback device directly to the speaker. It is intended for users who need a flexible full-range loudspeaker with onboard control.

A 15-inch low-frequency driver and 1.4-inch polymer compression driver cover the full-range program, with a specified 40 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range at -10 dB. The system is rated for up to 136 dB peak SPL and uses a 2,000-watt peak Class-D amplifier platform. Mackie specifies Advanced Impulse DSP for crossover and transducer time alignment. Intelligent Bass Management is designed to maintain tonal balance as output levels rise.

SRM Mix Control provides a built-in four-channel digital mixer for sources used at small events, rehearsals, and mobile setups. Channels 1 and 2 use XLR/TRS combo inputs, while the dedicated channel 3/4 input accepts a 1/8-inch stereo source. Direct outputs for channels 1 and 2 plus a balanced mix output support signal routing to additional speakers. A color TFT display and rotary controller provide access to levels, EQ, voicing, delay, and system settings.

Bluetooth functionality supports wireless audio streaming and linking with a second SRM V-Class speaker. When used with the SRM Connect app, compatible mobile devices can remotely access levels, EQ, presets, and speaker settings. The speaker can store up to 10 user presets to help streamline repeat setups. Its selectable voicing options accommodate different applications, including flat playback, live sound, speech, club playback, and monitor use.

The SRM215 V-Class can serve as a main PA loudspeaker, a floor monitor, or part of a larger system with a powered subwoofer. Its dual-angle cabinet supports vertical placement or a 45-degree monitor position, while the built-in pole mount offers straight or 7-degree downward-tilt placement. Integrated M10 fly points support properly planned permanent installation. For expanded low-frequency systems, the onboard subwoofer high-pass options include Off, DRM18S, and variable settings.

Design & Installation

The SRM215 V-Class uses an asymmetrical black polypropylene enclosure with a light black textured finish. Its grille is made from 16-to-18-gauge perforated steel with nylon net backing and a powder-coated black finish. The cabinet includes two side handles and one partial top handle. Front Power/Signal indication and rear Speaker Control indication provide visual system status.

Use the cabinet on the floor, on a suitable pole through its built-in bottom socket, or in a horizontal wedge position for monitoring. The pole mount offers straight and 7-degree downward-tilt positions; verify that any stand or pole can support the 48.9-pound speaker. For flown installation, use the integrated M10 points with appropriate M10 x 1.5 x 20 mm forged shoulder eyebolts and proper rigging practices. Use balanced XLR or 1/4-inch connections where possible, and do not connect an amplifier output directly to an input.
