optionally, aircraft-style rigging pan fittings.
The UltraMonitor requires a high-
quality professional stereo power amplifier
capable of delivering up to 250 watts per
channel continuously into 8 ohms, with a
signal voltage gain of 20dB (minimum)
to 30dB (maximum).

The UM-1C UltraMonitor operates as a
system with the M-1A Control Electron-
ics Unit (one per channel). Optimized for
the UM-1C and UPA-1C loudspeakers
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.
To enhance the effectiveness of the
UltraMonitor in stage monitoring applica-
tions, the M-1A incorporates sliding filters
which band-limit the system response
under full-power conditions. This has the
effect of discriminating for vocal informa-
tion in the signal to increase clarity, and
is particularly useful when onstage levels
are high and leakage becomes a problem.
For this reason, it is recommended that
subwoofers be used with the system if it

all times (as, for example, in keyboard
or drum monitors). The preferred choice

components from damage due to over-
heating under high power conditions.
This unique circuit continuously moni-
tors the power applied to the UM-1C
drivers, and individually limits the high-
frequency and low-frequency outputs
when the safe operating limits of the
drivers are exceeded. Until the onset of
overload, the SpeakerSense circuitry
has no effect on the signal.
Also provided is a switch-selectable
Safeguard function, which widens the
safety margin of the system and is in-
tended to be used when extended periods
of overload are anticipated. The Safe-
guard 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.

Architectural and
Engineering Specifications UM-1C/M-1A
manufacturing and refining
components that deliver superb
sonic reproduction. Every part of
every component is designed and
built to exacting specifications and
undergoes rigorous, comprehensive
testing in the laboratories.
The compact speaker system shall be
of the two-way type, with a 12" low-
frequency loudspeaker front-mounted in
a ducted bass-reflex hardwood plywood
enclosure, a compression driver
mounted on a high-frequency horn
which has a 1.4" throat, and a separate
Control Electronics Unit.
The speaker system, its companion
Control Electronics Unit, and a power
amplifier rated at 250 watts/channel into
8 ohms shall meet the following perform-
ance criteria: frequency response, 70 Hz to
18 kHz plus or minus 4 dB measured with
1/3 octave pink noise at 1 meter on axis;
output of 125 dB SPL one meter on axis
with peaks of 135dB SPL when driven with
“A”-weighted noise. Total mid-band har-
monic distortion shall be less than 1% at
110 dB SPL and 3% at 120 dB SPL one
meter on axis. High frequency distribution

Research remains an integral,
driving force behind all production.
Meyer strives for sound quality that
is predictable and neutral over an
extended lifetime and across an
extended range.
The Control Electronics Unit shall
contain a power supply capable of
operat-ing from a 120/240V AC, 50/60
