Meyer Sound UPA-1C Manuel utilisateur
UP
A-1C
UltraSeries™
Loudspeaker
Designed for a wide variety of sound
reinforcement applications, the compact,
arrayable UPA-1C allows for controlled
coverage of wide areas in theater, club and
concert sound reinforcement. The powerful
loudspeaker delivers high sound pressure
levels with extremely low distortion, for
maximum intelligibility and fidelity.
The biamplified loudspeaker consists of
a␣proprietary 12-inch low-frequency cone
driver in a vented enclosure with an 80-
degree high-frequency horn and driver.
The rugged, multiple-ply hardwood
cabinet enclosure is fitted with handles
and, optionally, aircraft-style rigging pan
fittings or threaded nut plates.
The UPA-1C requires a high-quality
professional stereo power amplifier capable
of delivering 250 watts/channel continu-
ously into 8 ohms, with a signal voltage
gain of 20␣dB (minimum) to 30 dB (maxi-
mum).

The UPA-1C loudspeaker operates as a system with
the M-1A Control Electronics Unit (one per channel).
Optimized for the UPA-1C and UM-1C UltraMonitor™
and pre-aligned at the factory, the M-1A contains
frequency response and phase response alignment
circuitry, and Meyer Sound's exclusive SpeakerSense
™
driver protection circuitry, incorporating both peak and
RMS signal limiting.
A single-channel device operating at line level, the
M-1A is intended to be the final component in the signal
chain before the power amplifier. Its factory-calibrated
SpeakerSense circuitry protects the UPA-1C loudspeaker
components from damage due to overheating under
high power conditions. This unique circuit continuously
monitors the power applied to the UPA-1C drivers, and
individually limits the high-frequency and low-fre-
quency outputs when the safe operating limits of the
drivers are exceeded. Until the onset of overload, the
Speaker-Sense circuitry has no effect on the signal.
Also provided is a switch-selectable Safe function,
which widens the safety margin of the system and is
intended to be used when extended periods of overload
are anticipated. The Safe switch and other setup controls
are located behind a cover plate on the M-1A front panel,
providing a means of securing the system installer's
presets.
To enhance the effectiveness of the UPA-1C, the M-1A
incorporates sliding filters which band-limit the system
response under full-power conditions. This has the effect
of discriminating for vocal information in the signal to
increase clarity, and is particularly useful when sound
pressure levels are high and leakage becomes a problem.
For this reason, it is recommended that subwoofers be
used with the system if it must pass the full audio fre-
quency range at all times. The preferred choice of
subwoofer for the UPA-1C is the Meyer Sound USW-1.

output of 125 dB SPL measured 1 meter
on axis with peaks of 132 dB SPL driven
with “A”-weighted noise. Total harmonic
distortion shall be less than 1% at 110 dB
SPL and 3% at 120 dB SPL one meter on
axis. Distribution pattern, 80 degrees
horizontal by 60 degrees vertical.
