#11 Meyer Sound Ultra X40 eBay
Pros: Bass reaches 65Hz at -3dB and about 57Hz at -10dB, deep for a pair of 8-inch woofers, and manufacturer measurements give a 5.43 preference score with an ideal subwoofer. The concentric 3-inch compression driver and 110° x 50° Constant-Q horn give wide, even coverage, and the built-in 1,950W peak amplifier reaches 127dB. Networked Galileo processing and a sub-25kg weight make it easy to fly or pole-mount. Measured bass extension of 65Hz (-3dB).
Cons: The 3.8dB reference band and 0.66 listening-window deviation make its tonal balance rougher than the Ultra X20’s, with a 2.73 standalone score. It is sold through pro dealers with no published price, and Sweetwater requires a sales engineer to order it.
How it compares: Just above it: DAS Audio ARTEC 508A. Just below it: LD Systems Stinger 8-A-G3.
