Mackie Frustrations

Sign in to disble this ad
Gotta vent here folks. I bought a powered Mackie speaker. OMG. So, I knew it had a low output and I was prepared to have it fixed. Now to look for a schematic. I nearly have to sign my life away to get a schematic and I cannot get any updates or bullitins because I am not an authorized dealer... Almost the same kind of scam crap as Markbass... Just frustrating.. Non-user friendly.. Just frustrating...

Yeah, Maki can frustrate me sometime as well, with all that "quantity over quality" advice... I mean, c'mon, Im a married man, I can only get away with so much.


Whats this about schematics?

Manufacturers just don't care about do it your selfers. I am frequently researching products I want/need before I buy, and a vacume on service info and replacement parts often rules out a particular manufacturer.

Notice to manufacturers: If you want to sell to ME you will need to have service and parts info readily available or your product better be something I can't live with out, and if I can't live without it I am looking for alternatives before I spend more money.... IMO holding me hostage over your broken device is bad business and a real turn off.

Still owned by LOUD Technologies? They curtailed schematics even to techs. Why? They'd rather sell you a new one than try to help you fix an old one...

Case and point. It just sucks that companies think we are all idiots. Swr, gk, peavey and many many more help us own and keep our gear. Places like markbass, mackie and the like think we can spend that much money on our gear, we can pay to have it fixed.
