Meyer Sound LEOPARD Line Array Loudspeaker - 3-pin (with Weather Pr...
Product Overview
The Meyer Sound LEOPARD Line Array Loudspeaker, 3-pin (with Weather Protection) is a compact, self-powered line array configured for fixed outdoor and semi-exposed installations. It combines LEOPARD's 110-degree coverage and high-output performance with Meyer Sound's factory weather protection treatment. This compact line array speaker suits outdoor venues, amphitheaters, and houses of worship requiring durable exterior coverage. Onboard amplification and a standard 3-pin analog input simplify AV system integration.
Product Description
This weather-protected LEOPARD shares the platform's two 9-inch cone drivers, 3-inch compression driver on a REM-manifold horn, and three-channel class D amplifier rated at 3900 W peak, with Meyer Sound's weather treatment applied for permanent exterior use. The standard 3-pin XLR input accepts balanced analog audio for direct integration into installed systems. For low-frequency extension outdoors, LEOPARD pairs with the 750-LFC, while indoor projects can use the LEOPARD Standard 3-pin. Additional Meyer Sound line array products are available in the Meyer Sound collection.

Competitor Comparison
| Criterion | Meyer Sound LEOPARD WP | L-Acoustics Kara II | d&b Y8 |
| Amplification | This LEOPARD is self-powered with onboard class D amplification in each cabinet. | The Kara II is externally amplified and requires L-Acoustics LA-series controllers. | The Y8 is externally amplified and requires d&b amplifiers. |
| Weather Protection | This model ships with Meyer Sound's factory weather protection for permanent outdoor use. | The Kara II requires separate weather-protection accessories for outdoor exposure. | The Y8 requires the d&b weather-protection kit for outdoor installations. |
| Horizontal Coverage | LEOPARD provides a fixed 110-degree horizontal pattern. | The Kara II offers mechanically variable directivity via fins. | The Y8 provides an 80-degree fixed horizontal pattern. |
| Maximum SPL | LEOPARD reaches a 142 dB maximum SPL in a compact cabinet. | The Kara II reaches a comparable 142 dB peak in its class. | The Y8 produces slightly lower maximum output suited to its single-woofer design. |
| System Simplicity | LEOPARD reduces rack space and cabling since amplification is onboard. | The Kara II requires amplified controllers sized to the array. | The Y8 requires external amplifier racks proportional to the system. |
| Monitoring | LEOPARD reports parameters through Meyer Sound's RMS remote monitoring system. | The Kara II reports through LA Network Manager at the amplifier. | The Y8 reports through d&b R1 software at the amplifier. |
