Meyer Sound LYONW Wide Line Array Powered Speaker

The self-powered LYON™ linear line array loudspeaker is a member of Meyer Sound’s LEO® family of linear loudspeakers, designed to reproduce audio faithfully with tremendous power and clarity, without coloring the sound, even when pushed to the limit. LYON delivers the same headroom and precision as the acclaimed LEO-M™ with the same cutting-edge technology housed in a lighter and more compact cabinet.

Features:

• Integrates seamlessly with Meyer Sound’s LEO-M line array loudspeakers, and the 1100-LFC and VLFC low frequency control elements.
• Delivers high peak power output with exceptional linearity and transient reproduction at any operating level
• Offers simplified setup and increased reliability via self-powered design
