LYON LINEAR LINE ARRAY LOUDSPEAKER
The self-powered LYON
™
linear line array loudspeaker
(Figure 1) is a member of Meyer Sound’s LEO
®
Family of
linear loudspeakers, designed to reproduce audio faithfully
with tremendous power and clarity, without coloring the
sound, even when pushed to the limit. LYON delivers the
same headroom and precision as the acclaimed
LEO-M
™
—with the same cutting-edge technology housed in
a lighter and more compact cabinet. Optimized rigging and
self-powered configuration streamline both setup and
breakdown for LYON systems. LYON is ideal for medium- to
large-scale array applications that do not require the extreme
long-throw capability of LEO-M.
For greater flexibility, LYON is available in three models:
LYON-M for primary array coverage, LYON-W for wide
coverage, and LYON-WXT for wide coverage with extended
vertical coverage. LYON-W can be used wherever wide
coverage is needed in LYON arrays, at the bottom or in the
middle of primary arrays, or even at the top of outfill arrays.
Because LYON-W matches the acoustical characteristics
and vertical coverage of LYON-M, transitions for horizontal
coverage are seamless. LYON models are matched
acoustically to LEO-M and can be used for downfill and
midfill at the bottom of LEO-M arrays, and as supplemental
sidefill and outfill arrays in LEO-M systems.
LYON arrays are ideally paired with Meyer Sound’s
1100-LFC low-frequency control element for bass
reproduction. Entire systems are driven by Meyer Sound’s
Galileo GALAXY Network Processor, which provides matrix
routing, alignment, and processing for array components. To
guarantee optimum performance, including coverage
patterns and maximum peak SPL, LYON systems should be
designed with Meyer Sound’s MAPP
™
prediction software.
LYON’s high-frequency section comprises two proprietary
compression drivers coupled to a constant-directivity horn
