Meyer Sound ULTRA-X40 Mid-Sized Point-Source Loudspeaker with 3-Pin XLR
Meyer Sound’s ULTRA-X40 design continues the tradition of the highly successful UPA loudspeakers—so versatile they have been a universal standard in almost every application for over 35 years. From touring performances to theme parks, worship venues to theater shows, and lecture halls to large scale concerts, Meyer Sound technology has delivered exceptional fidelity with high power, low distortion, and uniformly predictable behavior. To this legacy, Meyer Sound incorporated technology from the popular and award-winning LEO® family of loudspeakers to bring multiple enhancements to bear in the ULTRA-X40 design.
