The self-powered Meyer Sound UPQ-1P wide coverage loudspeaker is a member of the award-winning UltraSeries family of loudspeakers. Its extended low-frequency headroom gives it a smooth sound over its wide operating frequency range of 55 Hz to 18 kHz. With its easy-to-use and versatile QuickFly rigging, the UPQ-1P loudspeaker is equally suited to touring, rental and fixed installation applications. A high power-to-size ratio and ease of use makes the UPQ-1P an outstanding performer in concerts and corporate AV applications, and ideal for venues such as theatres, houses of worship, ballrooms, and nightclubs. The Meyer Sound UPQ-1P loudspeaker produces a peak output of 136 dB SPL with low distortion, as well as an exceptionally flat phase and frequency response in a compact, vented, trapezoid enclosure. The UPQ-1P offers an extremely consistent polar response, and is distinguished by its constant-Q horn that provides 80-degree horizontal by 50-degree vertical coverage (-6 dB points) and a gentle coverage rolloff that extends uniformly out to its -10 dB points of 100 by 60 degrees. The smooth and consistent performance of the Meyer UPQ-1P horn is the result of meticulous research in Meyer Sound’s anechoic chamber. The horn exhibits a remarkably consistent beamwidth in both the horizontal and vertical planes across a wide frequency range of 1 kHz to 18 kHz and delivers uniform attenuation for all frequencies outside the specified beamwidth. The Meyer Sound UPQ-1P loudspeaker can be used as the main system in small to mid-sized venues or easily integrated with other Meyer Sound products as centerfill or sidefills in larger applications. The Meyer UPQ-1P loudspeaker is available in custom color finishes, allowing it to blend in with any environment. A weather-protected version with a wood-treated enclosure and rain hood to safeguard the rear of the loudspeaker and connectors from the elements is also available.
