Meyer Sound UPQ-D2 Narrow Coverage Loudspeaker

Product Description

The Meyer Sound UPQ-D2 Narrow Coverage Loudspeaker evolves from the UPQ-1P and UPQ-2P product line, now optimized using the advanced amplifier and processing technology that made the LEO family an award-winning product line.

The UPQ-D2 offers a focused beamwidth, which yields precise coverage and minimal interaction with walls and neighboring loudspeakers in arrays. This feature makes it an ideal solution for small to mid-sized venues, houses of worship, theaters, and nightclubs—as either a stand-alone loudspeaker or as part of an array. The Constant-Q horn’s smooth and accurate performance, the result of meticulous research in Meyer Sound’s anechoic chamber, exhibits a remarkably consistent beamwidth in both the horizontal and vertical planes across a wide frequency range of 1–18 kHz. The UPQ‑D2 horn also delivers uniform attenuation for all frequencies outside the specified beamwidth.

In addition to the Constant‑Q horn, the loudspeaker features a low-frequency 15-inch neodymium magnet cone driver and 4-inch diaphragm compression driver, both designed and manufactured at Meyer Sound’s Berkeley, California headquarters.

The proprietary two‑channel, class D power amplifier yields a total power output of 2250 watts. Audio input routes through electronic crossover and correction filters, as well as through driver‑protection circuitry. Phase‑corrected processing ensures a flat acoustical amplitude and phase response, resulting in an exceptional impulse response and precise imaging.

Each amplifier channel has sophisticated limiters that are easily monitored with the limit LEDs on the unit’s rear panel. The UPQ‑D2’s modular amplifier and processing electronics incorporate Meyer Sound’s Intelligent AC power supply, which adapts to any power voltage worldwide and provides soft‑turn on and transient protection. The UPQ‑D2 uses an XLR 3-pin female input with male loop output connector.

The optional RMS remote monitoring system module provides comprehensive monitoring of loudspeaker parameters from a host computer running Compass® software. An optional XLR 5-pin connector is available to accommodate both balanced audio and RMS signals.

The UPQ‑D2 provides extremely high power output with low distortion in a vented two‑way enclosure. The UPQ‑D2’s durable trapezoidal enclosure has a slightly textured black finish, an integral stand mount receptacle, and versatile rigging endplates. Made of heavy‑duty, high‑strength, corrosion‑resistant 6061‑T6 aluminum, the endplates incorporate threaded M10 attachment points.
