Portable bass with built-in power
Thump Sub GO is battery-powered, so you’re not tied to the nearest plug socket. It runs on dual hot-swappable lithium-ion batteries, with each one providing up to six hours of use. This makes it easy to cover outdoor performances, mobile DJ gigs or venue setups where power distribution is limited. The included GB-200 battery lets you get started straight away, while an additional compartment gives you the option for extended runtime.
Unlike many battery-powered speakers, you don’t have to power down to swap cells. If one battery is running low, just slide it out and replace it while the other keeps the sub running. You also have the option to charge the batteries while they’re installed in the unit or separately using a power cable, giving you multiple ways to keep the system powered throughout a long day.
Solid low-end that’s easy to manage
At the heart of the Thump Sub GO are two 8" custom woofers and a 400W Class-D amplifier. This combination delivers clear, punchy low frequencies without excessive size or weight. With a maximum SPL of 123dB and a frequency range down to 32Hz, it provides enough bottom-end for smaller PA systems, acoustic acts, solo DJs and more intimate stages.
Output modes give you more control over how the bass is delivered. High-pass filtering is applied at 130Hz using a steep Linkwitz-Riley crossover to pair well with full-range speakers. You can also switch to full-range mode when daisy-chaining subs. These settings help maintain clarity and system balance across different speaker setups.
Stream music wirelessly over Bluetooth
With a dedicated Bluetooth audio input, the Thump Sub GO lets you stream music from your phone or tablet directly to the system. This makes it easy to run break music, backing tracks or playlist-based events without plugging in an extra source. Once paired, your device will automatically reconnect when in range and powered on.
Bluetooth is controlled using a single front-panel button, with a blue LED showing when the connection is active. You can also quickly reset the pairing or drop the device if needed. It’s ideal for simple plug-and-play music playback when time and cabling are limited.
Smart routing for flexible setups
Two XLR/TRS combo inputs allow you to connect a range of sources, from mixers to DJ controllers. Outputs can be set to mono-summed or stereo mode, giving you flexibility for both single- and multi-subwoofer configurations. A switchable phase control helps align low-end performance with your top speakers, improving clarity and punch.
You also get full-range and high-pass output modes on the same pair of XLR outputs, depending on the switch setting. This saves space and simplifies setup when combining multiple speakers or subs. LED indicators for battery life, overload and pairing help keep you in control without diving into menus.
Easy to transport and fast to set up
The slim, upright design of the Thump Sub GO makes it easy to carry and place. At just under 19kg with a battery installed, it’s light enough to move around solo, and its vertical orientation takes up minimal space on stage or in a van. The built-in carry handle and wedge-friendly shape mean you can load it in quickly without fuss.
For added stability, the Thump Sub GO features an M20 threaded pole mount on the top panel. This allows you to securely attach compatible loudspeakers, preventing unwanted wobble and keeping your system safe, especially outdoors or on uneven ground. It’s a practical touch that helps you build a portable yet professional system with confidence.
