Meyer Sound’s new SB-3F is a sound-field synthesis loudspeaker designed for projecting mid- and high-frequency energy over distances up to 1 kilometer. It uses 448 high-powered 1-inch neodymium transducers to create a highly directional wavefront, assuring intelligibility at long distances from the main point-source loudspeaker, says the company. The self-powered design incorporates a multichannel, high-powered Class AB/H amplifier and onboard circuitry to deliver 9,000 watts of power and can be custom painted to blend with any installation’s decor; a weather-protected version with rain hoods and a wood-treated enclosure is also available.
