Meyer Sound 1100-LFC Dual 18-Inch Subwoofer | Sound Pro Tech

Meyer Sound 1100-LFC Dual 18-Inch Subwoofer

Meyer Sound 1100-LFC is a self-powered, dual 18-inch low-frequency control element designed for professional sound reinforcement. It provides substantial low-frequency output for concert systems, touring productions, festivals, and large event spaces. Its integrated amplification makes it part of Meyer Sound’s self-powered system approach, while its cabinet can be considered for ground-stacked or flown configurations when the appropriate equipment and engineering are provided.

For buyers comparing professional subwoofers, the important question is how the 1100-LFC fits the complete sound system. The number of units, their placement, the available electrical supply, and the main loudspeakers all affect the result. Sound Pro Tech can discuss the units offered and the components included in a quotation for customers in France and across Europe.

Dual 18-inch low-frequency design

The 1100-LFC contains two 18-inch long-excursion cone drivers. Its published operating frequency range is 28 Hz to 100 Hz, with a specified frequency response of 30 Hz to 85 Hz, ±4 dB. Meyer Sound lists a 140 dB linear peak SPL figure measured under the conditions described in its datasheet. These figures describe the model; they are not a substitute for inspecting and testing an individual used unit.

Low-frequency requirements vary substantially between applications. A system supporting speech at a conference has different demands from one reproducing amplified music at a large outdoor event. Before selecting a quantity of subwoofers, consider the audience area, the desired level, the musical programme, and the main loudspeaker system.

The 1100-LFC is intended to supply the low-frequency part of a professional system. It should be specified alongside the other loudspeakers and the system’s signal processing, rather than chosen from its driver size alone. If you are expanding an existing Meyer Sound setup, tell Sound Pro Tech what equipment is already in use.

Self-powered operation

The Meyer Sound 1100-LFC has its amplification built into the cabinet. Meyer Sound specifies a two-channel amplifier with 8,100 W peak total output power. That is a peak amplifier specification, not a continuous power-consumption figure or a promise of output for every installation.

Because the subwoofer is self-powered, an external power amplifier is not required to drive the unit. A complete system still requires suitable audio signal distribution, electrical distribution, power cabling, and system planning. Confirm the connector configuration of the actual units offered before purchasing replacement cables or adding them to an existing inventory.

The published power requirement is particularly relevant for event production. Meyer Sound specifies a 208–235 V AC, 50/60 Hz safety-rated voltage range and a powerCON 32 power input for the 1100-LFC. A qualified professional should plan the power supply and distribution for the number of units being deployed.

Ground-stacked and flown applications

The 1100-LFC can be used as part of a ground-stacked system. Depending on the project, placing the subwoofers on the ground may simplify the stage layout and provide a practical way to assemble a low-frequency array. The number of cabinets and their orientation should be chosen for the site and the intended coverage.

Meyer Sound also documents an optional MRK-1100 rigging kit that supports flown configurations. This is an optional accessory: do not assume it is attached to every used 1100-LFC. If flown deployment is essential to your project, ask Sound Pro Tech to confirm the rigging fitted to the units and identify every additional component included in the offer.

A product photograph may show a configuration that differs from the equipment being sold. The quotation should list the subwoofers, rigging, caster frames, covers, and cables separately where applicable. This helps you understand what is ready for your planned use and what must be sourced separately.

Any suspended configuration requires an assessment of the site, attachment points, hardware, and applicable manufacturer instructions by qualified personnel. The appropriate arrangement depends on the actual equipment and installation conditions.

Planning a low-frequency system

Buying a subwoofer is only one part of creating reliable low-frequency coverage. Several 1100-LFC units can be arranged in different ways, and the resulting coverage changes with the number of units and their configuration. Meyer Sound lists 360-degree coverage for a single unit, while noting that coverage varies when units are combined.

For a venue installation, describe where the audience is located and where the subwoofers can be placed. At an outdoor event, include the approximate size of the audience area and any restrictions near the stage. For a touring package, consider the variety of venues in which the equipment will be used.

If you have a system design, equipment list, or venue plan, share it when asking for a quote. These details make it easier to discuss the quantity of subwoofers and any associated hardware you need. They also help distinguish a request for a single replacement unit from a request for a complete low-frequency package.

The required result cannot be established from a fixed number of subwoofers alone. Placement, system alignment, the main loudspeakers, and the event programme all affect performance. A system designer can assess those factors for the intended application.

Integration with Meyer Sound systems

The 1100-LFC has been used in professional Meyer Sound systems for large-scale events. Meyer Sound has documented its use with other loudspeakers in touring and festival applications. These examples show the kinds of systems in which the model has been deployed; they do not mean that every combination of products will work without appropriate design and alignment.

If you already own Meyer Sound loudspeakers, provide their model names and quantities. Mention any existing 1100-LFC units, processors, rigging accessories, and transport equipment. This information is useful when you want to expand an established inventory while maintaining a consistent equipment package.

If you are purchasing the model for the first time, explain the intended application and the equipment you plan to use with it. Sound Pro Tech can then identify what is included in the available offer. Final system configuration and processing should be established for the actual venue and equipment.

Size, weight, and transport

The 1100-LFC is a substantial professional subwoofer. Meyer Sound lists a weight of 112.9 kg without rigging and 129.3 kg with rigging. Its published cabinet dimensions are 1,336 mm wide, 520 mm high, and 838 mm deep without rigging. Check the dimensions of the complete transport arrangement if caster frames or other accessories are included.

These measurements matter before placing an order. Check vehicle access, loading facilities, door widths, storage space, and the route from the delivery point to the final location. If the equipment is going to a venue without a loading dock, describe the receiving conditions when requesting a shipping quotation.

Transport accessories can also affect the practicality and cost of a purchase. Ask whether the offer includes caster frames, protective covers, or other handling equipment. Confirm the number of accessories supplied for a multi-unit package rather than assuming each subwoofer has its own set.

What to check when buying used

For a used Meyer Sound 1100-LFC, request actual photographs of the units being offered. Front, rear, side, and label photographs can help document the cabinet, grille, connectors, and individual unit identification. For a larger lot, ask whether photographs represent every unit or only a sample.

The description should distinguish cosmetic condition from operational condition. Marks from transport may affect appearance without describing how the subwoofer functions. Conversely, a clean exterior does not establish its operating history. Ask what checks have been carried out and whether any repairs or faults are known.

Confirm the number of units available, their power and audio connector configuration, and any fitted rigging. If the seller includes accessories, request an itemised list. The written quotation should state the exact package, price, delivery terms, and any applicable taxes.

Meyer Sound lists the 1100-LFC in its archived legacy resources. For a buyer, this makes accurate unit information and the correct manufacturer documentation particularly useful when evaluating a used purchase.
