SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
Sound: You can't beat a 3-way speaker in terms of sound quality, especially with the vocals in the crucial mid-range. 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. Ease of Use: Let's see: 1. connect power 2. connect line-level XLR from mixer output 3. flick the power switch. enough said. 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... Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to deal with them yet, and this is my second pair of Mackie speakers. The Wow Factor: 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! 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.

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
Sound: Excellent sound - midrange is very clear, tight bottom end, sparkling highs. Has a very EAW-like sound in the midrange.... got many compliments on sound quality from audience.... Feature: Lots of power, very simple - 1 in, 1 out, master level, that's it. Quality: Seems very rugged, cabinets look very professional. Value: Very good price considering the sound quality and output level Overall: Very hard to beat - tons of power, loud and with excellent accuracy in the mids and highs - overall great.
