Why Choose the Meyer Sound UMS-1XP Subwoofer?

Ultra-Compact Design

Don’t let the small footprint fool you. The UMS-1XP is designed for hidden installs—under stages, inside furniture, or tucked into architectural nooks.

Massive Output for Its Size

With dual 10-inch drivers and 127 dB SPL, it easily supports systems in boardrooms, hospitality venues, and performance spaces.

Seamless Integration

It uses the IntelligentDC™ infrastructure, allowing for remote power and audio signal transmission through a single composite cable—an installer’s dream.

Perfect Companion for X Series Loudspeakers

When paired with MM-4XP or UP-4XP models, the UMS-1XP fills out the bottom end beautifully. It rounds out your sound without overwhelming it.

Quiet, Clean Operation

With low distortion, minimal vent noise, and tight transient response, it’s ideal for recording studios, control rooms, and immersive AV environments.

Technical Superiority of UMS-1XP

The system offers an extended low-frequency response down to 25 Hz, which means deep bass without mud. What sets it apart technically is its class AB/H amplifier and advanced signal processing, housed right inside the box—making tuning and integration seamless.

This powered subwoofer also features Meyer’s precision electronic crossover and over-excursion protection, ensuring your sound stays consistent and safe even at high volumes.

Why Installers and Integrators Love It

Installers often face this challenge: How to deliver world-class audio in tight, architecturally sensitive spaces? That’s where UMS-1XP truly excels.

It fits where others can’t
No need for local AC power
