Meyer Sound USW-1P Speaker User Manual


 
USW-1P specifications
1. Recommended maximum operating
frequency range. Response depends on
loading conditions and room acoustics.
2. Free field, measured with 1/3-octave
frequency resolution at 4 meters.
3. Measured with music at 1 meter.
4. Power handling is measured under AES
standard conditions: transducer driven
continuously for two hours with band-
limited noise signal having a
6 dB peak-average ratio.
5. Two additional input module options
are available with a polarity reversal
switch and an attenuator (0 dB to
-18 dB): one looping and one with two
inputs for mono summing.
6. Amplifier wattage rating based on the
maximum unclipped burst sine-wave
rms voltage that the amplifier will pro
-
duce into the nominal load impedance.
Both channels 32 V rms (42 V pk) into
4 ohms.
7. No automatic turn-off voltages.
Voltages above 265 V AC are fuse
protected but may cause permanent
damage to the power supply. Voltages
below 90 V AC may result in intermit-
tent operation.

Equipped for two-conductor twisted-pair network, reporting
amplifier operating parameters to system operator’s host

The loudspeaker shall be a self-powered, sub-bass system
which may be flown singly or groundstacked with multiple cabi
-
nets. The transducers shall consist of two 15-inch cone drivers
with 3-inch voice coils.
The loudspeaker shall incorporate internal processing electron
-
ics and a two-channel amplifier. Each amplifier channel shall be
class AB/bridged with complementary MOSFET output stages.
Burst capability shall be 550 watts total with a nominal resistive
load of 4 ohms both channels. Distortion (THD, IM, TIM) shall
not exceed 0.02%.
Performance specifications for a typical production unit shall
be as follows: Operating frequency range shall be 32 Hz to 200
Hz. Phase response shall be ±30 degrees from 45 Hz to 155 Hz.
Maximum peak SPL shall be 135 dB at 1 meter. Beamwidth shall
be 360 degrees for a single unit. Directional characteristics can
