Meyer Sound PANTHER

The Meyer Sound PANTHER is a large-format, self-powered linear line array loudspeaker that redefines what a compact cabinet can do. At just 150 pounds, it delivers a peak output of over 150 dB, a level no other line array in its class comes close to matching. Inside each cabinet sits a groundbreaking ultralight Class D amplifier rated at 2,200 watts, precision-matched to the drivers so it always delivers optimal power for cleaner, more accurate sound. The acoustic design pairs two 12-inch low-frequency woofers with three 3-inch compression drivers on a computationally optimized high horn, giving the PANTHER a controlled, directional pattern across its 55 Hz to 16 kHz operating range. Because the amplification is built into the loudspeaker itself, there are no long runs of connecting cable to introduce distortion or signal loss, and the result is the kind of linearity and headroom that only a self-powered system can provide.

Directional control is where the PANTHER really earns its name. Its unique low-mid transducer placement and optimized horn create a cardioid polar pattern at low frequencies in arrays of four units and longer, and that pattern stays consistent at every SPL level, even when the system is pushed into limiting. No additional user settings are required, so sound projects forward into the audience with no unwanted reflections or spill behind the array. The cabinet is IP55-rated to resist dust and splashes, with sealed Neutrik TOP connectors that make rain hoods a thing of the past, so the PANTHER is ready for outdoor and touring work without extra protection. Signal distribution is flexible too, with both analog XLR and Milan AVB network inputs, giving you a path to scale within existing infrastructure while staying open to tomorrow’s digital platforms.

The PANTHER is engineered to scale effortlessly from theaters to stadiums, and it pairs naturally with the Meyer Sound 2100-LFC subwoofer for deep, punchy, accurate low end. It is fully supported by Meyer’s system management tools, including MAPP 3D, GALAXY, Compass, and Spacemap Go, so you can model, tune, and manage the system with confidence. The high-efficiency amplification package cuts power draw by roughly 20%, which lowers operating costs and your environmental footprint, while the lighter weight means faster load-in and load-out, less labor, and more efficient transport. It is a system built to outperform, out-deliver, and outlast the competition, and it offers a substantially lower initial cost than larger self-powered systems like LEO and LYON. For a rig that needs to be powerful, precise, and easy to move, the PANTHER is the right-sized answer.
