Meyer Sound LEO-M Advanced Linear Line Array Loudspeaker

Sonic linearity at any output level defines the Meyer Sound LEO-M Advanced Linear Line Array Loudspeaker. Conceived for long-throw applications, with exceptional headroom, extremely low distortion, and optimized rigging options, LEO‑M forms the nucleus of Meyer Sound’s next‑generation LEO® array systems. Pair LEO arrays with Meyer Sound’s 1100‑LFC low-frequency control element for bass reproduction, and the LYON™ linear line array loudspeaker for downfill. Drive entire systems with Meyer Sound’s Galileo® GALAXY Network Platform, which provides 24 bit, 96 kHz audio, matrix routing, alignment, and processing for array components.

To guarantee optimum system performance, design LEO array systems with Meyer Sound’s MAPP™ System Design Tool. This intuitive, cross-platform application accurately predicts coverage patterns, frequency and impulse responses, and linear peak SPL for LEO array systems, ensuring that systems deliver the required SPL and ideal coverage for the intended audience areas. LEO‑M’s high-frequency section comprises two proprietary compression drivers coupled to a constant-directivity horn through a patented REM® manifold. The manifold’s smooth radiating characteristics afford tight vertical coverage. The low‑frequency section includes two long-excursion cone drivers, also proprietary, capable of withstanding high continuous output levels. Precise phase and magnitude alignment between low‑ and high-frequency drivers yields consistent and well‑behaved system responses.

The unit’s power amplifier operates at nominal voltages from 208—235 V AC at 50—60 Hz. TruPower® limiting ensures maximum driver protection, minimizing power compression while yielding high constant output under high continuous and peak power conditions. A single field-replaceable module located on the rear of the cabinet contains the amplifier, control electronics, and power supply.

Meyer Sound’s RMS™ remote monitoring system comes standard with all LEO‑M loudspeakers and provides comprehensive monitoring of system parameters on a Mac® or Windows®-based computer. Convenient XLR 5-pin connectors allow the use of composite cables carrying both RMS and balanced audio.

LEO‑M offers intuitive rigging with captive GuideALinks™ that users can set to the desired splay angles while cabinets rest in caster frames. The MTG‑LEO‑M top grid flies arrays of up to 22 LEO‑Ms at a 5:1 safety factor (with some restrictions). Meyer Sound constructs the vented LEO‑M cabinet of premium multi‑ply birch and coats it with a slightly textured black finish. A powder-coated, hex‑stamped steel grille with acoustical black mesh protects the unit’s drivers. The weather-protected cabinet and included collapsible rain hood that shields user panel connectors from water intrusion accommodate a variety of applications.

Features:

• Optimized line arrays with controlled directivity for even coverage and consistent responses over long throws
• High peak power output with exceptional linearity and transient reproduction at extreme levels
• Self-powered design for simplified setup and increased reliability
• Optimized rigging that allows splay angles to be set while stacks rest in caster frames
• Seamless integration with LYON line array loudspeakers, and the 1100-LFC and VLFC low frequency control elements
