Meyer Sound LEOPARD Small Line Array Loudspeaker with Remote Monitoring System and 3-Pin XLR
The LEOPARD® compact linear line array loudspeakers reproduce audio faithfully with tremendous power, superior intelligibility, and extremely low distortion. Rounding out Meyer Sound’s award‑winning LEO® family of loudspeakers, LEOPARD loudspeakers deliver the same advantages of self-powered design, linear response, and precise directional control as their bigger siblings, LEO-M and LYON®. LEOPARD, with its 110° coverage, breaks new ground in loudspeaker array performance, providing exceptional phase coherence and consistent coverage in a light, compact cabinet, making it extremely versatile. Its innovative amplifier, driver, and horn designs ensure that LEOPARD systems reproduce any sound source with linearity over a wide dynamic range, from speech and classical music to rock and EDM.
Features:
- Available in two models for greater flexibility: LEOPARD-M80 for narrow controlled array coverage and LEOPARD for wide coverage
- Compact cabinet with small footprint and extraordinary power-to-size ratio
- High peak power output with exceptional linearity and transient reproduction with extremely low distortion at any output level
- Self-powered and Native Mode for super-simplified setup and increased reliability; additional presets for different configurations available in the Galileo GALAXY processor
- Flexible rigging and transport options
- Easy integration using the Galileo GALAXY processor’s product integration files for LYON line array loudspeakers and the 900-LFC, 1100-LFC, and VLFC™ low frequency control elements
