Meyer Sound ULTRA-X40 2x8" 2-Way Active Speaker, 3-Pin Input, ...
Product Overview
The Meyer Sound ULTRA-X40 MILAN is a compact self-powered point-source loudspeaker that adds Milan AVB networked audio to the wide-coverage ULTRA-X40 platform. Its rotatable 110° x 50° Constant-Q horn makes it well suited to houses of worship, auditoriums, multi-purpose rooms, and networked AV installations. Two 8-inch low-frequency cone drivers and a 3-inch compression driver deliver high SPL with low distortion in a single trapezoidal enclosure. Milan connectivity allows digital audio distribution over standard AVB network infrastructure.
Product Description
This MILAN variant integrates Milan AVB audio networking into the ULTRA-X40 alongside its analog input capability. A proprietary three-channel Class-D amplifier produces 1950 watts peak, and onboard processing handles electronic crossover, phase and frequency correction, and driver protection. The concentric driver configuration provides coaxial behavior with directional control extending down to 400 Hz, and the rotatable horn allows the cabinet to be deployed in horizontal or vertical orientation without changing the coverage pattern. For a tighter pattern, consider the Meyer Sound ULTRA-X42-3. To extend low-frequency output, pair it with the Meyer Sound 750-LFC powered subwoofer. Additional Meyer Sound loudspeakers are available in the Meyer Sound collection. The cabinet integrates 11 M8 rigging points plus a 35 mm pole mount with M20 thread for flexible installation.
Key Features
