Getting Started
Introduction
The Mackie SRM-Flex Portable Column PA System features
a compact, lightweight form factor, signature SRM Series
sound quality, and intuitive Mackie mixer design for maximum
flexibility.
With a staggering 1300W of power, custom 6-driver
wide-dispersion array, and 10" subwoofer, SRM-Flex has
plenty of headroom to ensure crystal-clear, room-filling
sound.

in your optimal sound in minutes with full control over levels,
EQ, reverb, and more via physical knobs or wirelessly on your
phone. You can even stream music or backing tracks via any
Bluetooth® enabled device.
Perfect for solo acts, bands, corporate events, schools,
and more.

w/active pickups into the instrument inputs
