he Meyer Sound 700-HP ultrahigh-power
subwoofer sets a new standard for the
power-to-size equation. The 700-HP’s
power and bandwidth handle high continuous operating levels and extreme transient
information with minimal distortion in its
operating frequency range.
Meyer Sound’s rigorous design approach
has been applied to extract the greatest
efficiency from every part of the system,
resulting in the 700-HP subwoofer's effortless reproduction of low-frequency transient information. The transducers, amplification and control electronics of the self powered 700-HP are created as a symbiotic system that optimizes performance and
maximizes its tremendous power.
The operating frequency range of 28 Hz to
150 Hz complements other Meyer Sound
loudspeakers and line and curvilinear
arrays in sound reinforcement applications
requiring maximum headroom at the low
end of the frequency spectrum.

excursion, 18-inch cone drivers. Each driver features a 4-inch voice coil and is rated
to handle 1200 AES watts (see note 4 on
back page). The Meyer Sound designed
and manufactured drivers have also been
engineered for extreme efficiency, using
high-gauss neodymium magnets for the
most powerful magnetic field strength. High
magnetic field strength increases the driver’s sensitivity, which yields greater output,
while keeping heat dissipation requirements within operational tolerances.
An integral two-channel class AB/H amplifier with complementary MOSFET output
stages supplies total peak power of 2250
watts (1125 watts per channel). With nearly
twice the amplification power of the 650-P
subwoofer, the 700-HP produces an average of 3 dB more overall SPL, with enormous headroom to accommodate the most
extreme demands with ease. Tests conducted by Meyer Sound show the 700-HP
producing significantly higher output than
other “high-power” subwoofers.

replaceable module mounted in the cabinet
rear. The cabinet is constructed of multiply hardwood and coated with a textured
black finish. Integral metal grilles lined with
acoustical black mesh protect the cone drivers. The stackable 700-HP includes plastic
skids on the bottom of the unit to prevent
damage to the enclosure or the unit below;
the skids align with slots on the cabinet’s
top to ensure secure stacking. For maximum convenience, the 700-HP can travel in
stacks on the MCF-700 caster frame.
The 700-HP is truck-smart, with exterior cabinet dimensions suitable for both
European and U.S. trucks. A QuickFly rigging
kit is available, installed at the factory or as
a field upgrade. Up to 11 cabinets can be
suspended from the optional MTG-700 top
grid in a straight hang at a 7:1 safety factor.
Options for the 700-HP include weather
protection and custom color finishes for
fixed installations and any situation requiring specific cosmetics. The optional RMS™
remote monitoring system module allows
comprehensive monitoring of all key system
parameters on any RMS-equipped host PC.
