The
USM-100P self-powered stage monitor comprises a 15-inch low-frequency cone driver, a 3-inch diaphragm compression driver with constant-Q horn, phase-corrected signal processing electronics and a dual-channel power amplifier in a rugged enclosure. The
USM-100P excels in applications that require efficient response to 30 Hz for clean, high-level reproduction of bass and drums.
Additional benefits of the
USM-100P are improved linearity and low susceptibility to feedback. Maximum output level is 132 dB peak SPL at 1 meter, with exceptionally low distortion.
The
USM-100P offers a wide 100-degree horizontal x 40-degree vertical pattern for broad coverage in either floor wedge or flown applications, affording maximum freedom of movement for performers. The horn's Constant-Q design provides uniform beamwidth in both the horizontal and vertical planes with
Minimal side lobing.
The integral dual-channel power amplifier, a proprietary class AB/bridged design with complementary power MOSFET output stages, produces 350 watts burst per channel with less than 0.02 percent distortion. Voltage-controlled limiters prevent over-excursion and regulate the temperature of driver voice coils, protecting the drivers without power compression effects and allowing sustained high sound pressure levels. The Intelligent AC power supply provides automatic voltage selection, EMI filtering, voltage transient suppression and soft start.
The
USM-100P is compatible with Meyer Sound's RMS remote monitoring system, a Windows-based application for monitoring the full range of amplifier and driver operating parameters.
Used Meyer Sound
Established by John and Helen Meyer in 1979, Meyer Sound has been at the forefront of innovation in audio engineering for over two decades. From the outset, Meyer Sound looked beyond loudspeaker cabinet design to create totally integrated, systems-comprehensive solutions that encompass transducer design, signal processing, power amplification and even electroacoustic measurement systems. As a result, Meyer Sound's engineering teams have earned an enviable reputation for developing unique, innovative solutions to some of the most difficult problems confronting audio professionals.
In fact, it is fundamental to John Meyer's philosophy that no component of a system should be compromised in order to compensate for variables "upstream" or "downstream." Instead, the entire system should be conceived, designed, tested, confirmed and manufactured as a whole to provide the optimum blend of audio fidelity, utility and long-term reliability.

Used Monitors
Monitors are commonly known as “stage monitors”. Stage monitors are the speakers used on stage that are directed towards the performers so that they can hear themselves while playing. This allows them to monitor how well they are playing. Usually, the monitor speaker is needed when instruments with amplifiers are used in combination with acoustic instruments and the voice. These monitors on stage usually have built in amplifiers and equalizers. These monitors specifically highlight the vocals and the sound of the acoustic instruments so they won’t be enveloped completely by the drums or the other electronic instruments. The audio wedge, wedge monitor, stage wedge, amplifiers, equalizers and monitor mixers all comprise the stage monitor system.
There are two types of monitor speakers: the floor monitors and side fill monitors. Usually speakers on stage are heavy duty and require high input power to be able to generate high volume sounds. The floor monitors are the speakers that are placed on the floor. They are compact with the angle back design. Because of its angle appearance, it is also known as “wedge”. The smaller singular speakers are called the “hot spot” monitor that is usually placed on the microphone stand so the performers can easily hear themselves. The two way heavy duty speakers have the woofer and the high frequency horn. The side fill monitors are those found at the upright side of the stage and these allow sound to be heard in places that the floor monitors cannot cover.
