Meyer Sound 600-HP Powered Subwoofer
Meyer Sound 600-HP Powered Subwoofer
The 600-HP is a self-powered, high-output subwoofer that may be used in both flown and ground-stacked configurations. It is designed to rig directly with MICA™ compact high-power curvilinear array loudspeakers when fitted with the optional QuickFly MRF-600 rigging frame. The versatility of the 600-HP also allows it to be used with a variety of other Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers — such as M’elodie, CQ-1, CQ-2, UPA-1P, UPA-2P, and UPJ-1P — in fixed and touring applications.
Features:
- Efficient, high-power, high-excursion cone drivers
- Extremely low distortion for low-frequency clarity
- Very high peak power yields excellent transient reproduction
- Stackable, and flyable by itself or with MICA full-range loudspeakers
- Compatible with MG-MICA rigging frame for flying and ground-stacking
- Transportable in stacks using optional MCF-MICA caster frame or MDB-600 dolly board
- Low-frequency complement to MICA and other Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers
