the UPA-1P horn in an

anechoic chamber by

measuring coverage patterns

using angular and frequency

resolutions of 1° and

⁄36

octave, respectively. The UPA-1P

horn provides a much wider

horizontal, and slightly

narrower vertical beam width

(100°H x 40°V) than the UPA-2P.

Both speakers share the

following remarkable attributes:

• uniform frequency response

within the beam width

• rapid and uniform amplitude

attenuation for all frequen-

cies outside the beam width

• minimal side lobes

The UPA-P Series is ideally

suited for small PA applications

requiring complete coverage

with a compact, high-powered

system, and also make

excellent under-balcony, down-

fill.

The UPA-P’s integrated

electronics employs the

Intelligent AC power supply,

which auto-selects the correct

The Meyer UPA-P Series self-

powered loudspeakers (UPA-1P,

UPA-2P) are more than powered

versions of the Meyer UPA-C

Series (UPA-1C, UPA-2C). The

UPA-P Series features phase-

corrected electronics that

produce flat acoustical phase

and amplitude responses,

resulting in exceptional system

impulse response and precise

imaging. Despite the inclusion

of amplification and control

electronics, the UPA-P is the

same size as, and only 10 lb.

heavier than the UPA-C.

Additionally, the UPA-P’s

advanced horn designs achieve

a consistent polar response

and smooth arraying behavior.

The beam width of a horn is

the angle at which the sound

pressure at a given frequency

decreases to half (–6 dB) its

on-axis amplitude. Existing

technologies produce horns

whose beam width varies over

the operating frequency range.

These horns also display non-

uniform frequency response

within, and significant side lobe

energy outside their beam

width. Both undesirable

characteristics, particularly

prevalent for horns with a wide

beam width, make array design

extremely problematic.

The UPA-P horns exhibit

constant Q: the beam width

remains consistent across the

horn’s operating frequency

range in both the vertical and

horizontal planes. The UPA-2P

uses the same horn as the

UPA-2C: the original design

achieved constant Q for its

narrow beam width (45°H x

45°V). Meyer Sound developed

FEATURES

operating voltage (facilitating

international use), suppresses

high voltage transients, and

provides soft-start power-up

(eliminating high inrush current).

The UPA-P can be equipped

to operate with the Remote

Monitoring System

™

(RMS)

network and software

application. The UPA’s are

shipped with one of two audio

input and control options. The

Basic module contains an XLR

input and a loop connector.

The second module provides

features that facilitate array

building and integration into

full-range systems without

incurring the cost of external

processors. These inter-

changeable modules can be

installed in the field with a

Phillips screwdriver. RMS

displays signal and power

levels, driver and cooling fan

status, limiter activity, and

amplifier temperature for all

speakers in the network on a

Windows-based PC.
