The MX3500 is the larger of the pair in terms of output, and it is built on Mackie's own amplifier design history rather than a generic platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePower, and how the modes use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach channel delivers 1000W continuous into 8 ohms and 1350W continuous into 4 ohms. Bridged, the amplifier produces 2700W continuous into 8 ohms. Three operating modes are selectable. Stereo runs the two channels independently for a left and right pair. Parallel feeds one input to both channels, which is the mode you use when several cabinets need the same signal. Bridged puts all the available power into a single load, typically a subwoofer. Independent level control on each channel and selectable input sensitivity let you match the amplifier to the console output rather than running everything at the top of its range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStaying alive under load\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForced-air ventilation keeps the amplifier cool during long events, which is where fanless designs start throttling. Protection circuits cover short circuit, under-impedance, over-current and thermal conditions, so a shorted speaker cable or an accidentally low load does not take the rig down with it. Signal, Clip and Fault LEDs on each channel tell you which condition you are in without needing a meter bridge, and Mackie's stated aim is clear, punchy sound that stays distortion-free even when pushed to the limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRack and connections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chassis is a robust, impact-resistant all-steel 2U rackmount, so it takes the knocks that come with touring racks. Each channel has an XLR input with a Thru, which makes daisy-chaining multiple amplifiers from one console send straightforward. Speaker outputs are NL4, the standard for professional passive systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilding a Mackie system\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMackie designed the MX Series around the DRM Series Passive Loudspeakers, and adding the SP260 Loudspeaker Processor completes the chain with crossover, delay and limiting handled properly before the amplifier. That combination gives a fully specified professional system where every component is matched to the others.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mackie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49101083705600,"sku":"MX3500","price":869.5,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/0871\/5776\/files\/mackie-mx3500-01.jpg?v=1785431758","url":"https:\/\/musicshop.sg\/products\/mackie-mx3500-2-channel-2700w-professional-power-amplifier","provider":"Musicshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
