Flexibility and Precision
| |
CAL loudspeakers include two AVB-capable Ethernet inputs, the emerging open networking standard for sending real-time audio and video over Ethernet.

CAL comes in three models, each providing a different output level—up to a maximum peak SPL of 104 at 30 meters with the CAL 96—over an operating frequency range of 150 Hz to 10 kHz. Providing horizontal coverage of 120 degrees and the flexibility of digital beam steering for the vertical coverage, a single, unobtrusive CAL loudspeaker can provide clear vocal reproduction over a large area while minimizing undesirable reflections.
CAL achieves this by using a separate onboard Class D power amplifier for every driver and tweeter, controlled by extremely sophisticated algorithms. Controlling each element individually yields greater flexibility and precision than other beam- steering systems that control modules consisting of several drivers.
The amplitude and phase response of each driver are engineered to produce interactions with the other drivers that result in the desired vertical coverage pattern. While this involves a large number of sophisticated mathematical computations, Meyer Sound makes it easy with intuitive control software that communicates with each CAL loudspeaker over Ethernet.
Flexible mounting options allow users to mount CAL loudspeakers against walls or columns, and custom colors ensure they will blend into any background. A weather protection option permits outdoor installations, making it easy to integrate CAL loudspeakers into any environment.
