Meyer Sound 600-HP Powered Subwoofer for Sale
Meyer Sound 600-HP is a compact, self-powered professional subwoofer designed to add substantial low-frequency output to touring and installed sound systems. Its two 15-inch drivers, built-in amplifier and durable enclosure make it suitable for concerts, theatres, houses of worship, clubs and event production.
The 600-HP can be used on the ground or in an approved flown configuration with the appropriate optional hardware. It was designed to work particularly well with Meyer Sound MICA arrays, while also complementing a range of other Meyer Sound loudspeakers.
If you are sourcing a used Meyer Sound 600-HP through Sound Pro Tech, contact us for the availability, photographs, condition and included accessories of the specific units offered. This is a legacy Meyer Sound model, so checking the configuration of each used cabinet is an important part of choosing the right equipment for your system.
Dual 15-Inch Low-Frequency Drivers
Inside the 600-HP are two high-power, long-excursion 15-inch cone drivers. Each driver has a 4-inch voice coil and is housed in a tuned, vented enclosure. This design gives the cabinet the ability to reproduce demanding bass material at the levels expected in professional sound reinforcement.
A pair of drivers in one enclosure gives system designers considerable low-frequency capability without using a separate cabinet for every driver. The result is a practical subwoofer for productions that need strong bass but must also plan carefully for transport, stage space and setup time.
The published operating frequency range is 36 Hz to 150 Hz. Meyer Sound specifies a free-field frequency response of 39 Hz to 130 Hz, ±4 dB. These two figures describe different measurements: the operating range gives the recommended working bandwidth, while the response figure states the range measured within a specified tolerance.
What an audience hears will also depend on placement, the number of cabinets, the venue and the alignment of the complete system.
Built-In Two-Channel Amplifier
The Meyer Sound 600-HP contains an integrated two-channel Class AB/H amplifier. Each 15-inch driver has its own amplifier channel, so the cabinet arrives as a complete self-powered loudspeaker system.
Meyer Sound specifies 2,250 watts of output power and 4,500 watts peak for the amplifier system. These figures describe the amplifier’s published capabilities; they should not be confused with electrical consumption or used alone to predict sound level at an event.
The integrated design removes the need to pair the subwoofer with a separate external power amplifier. For a touring company, that may reduce the amount of amplifier-rack space and loudspeaker cabling required. For an installed system, it can simplify the basic equipment layout.
The subwoofer still needs correctly planned AC power and an appropriate signal feed. When several cabinets are used, a qualified technician should review power distribution, cabling and system control for the entire array.
High Output for Professional Events
The 600-HP has a published maximum peak SPL of 138 dB at one metre under Meyer Sound’s stated measurement conditions. This helps show the level of low-frequency output the model was built to deliver.
A specification measured at one metre is not the sound level every listener will experience. Output changes with distance and is affected by boundaries, the venue, other loudspeakers and the placement of multiple subwoofers.
In a large event system, several 600-HP cabinets can be combined to supply the low-frequency energy needed across the audience area. The appropriate quantity depends on the main loudspeakers, the music, the room or outdoor site and the desired listening level.
The best way to select a subwoofer quantity is to plan the full system. This allows the sound designer to consider coverage and headroom together instead of choosing equipment based only on its individual peak SPL figure.
Internal Processing and Driver Protection
Meyer Sound designed the 600-HP’s amplifier, drivers and control electronics to operate as one system. The cabinet includes internal processing and TruPower limiting, which helps manage driver operation under demanding conditions.
Protection features support reliable performance, but they do not replace correct system setup. Suitable gain structure, electrical supply, signal routing and operating levels remain essential for any professional sound system.
The amplifier, control electronics and power supply are mounted together in a rear module. This arrangement was designed with professional servicing in mind.
For buyers of used equipment, it is sensible to ask whether both amplifier channels and both drivers have been checked. An operating demonstration or recent test report can be especially helpful when buying several cabinets for an existing system.
Ground Stacking and Flown Configurations
One of the Meyer Sound 600-HP’s useful features is its choice of deployment methods. Depending on the version and installed hardware, cabinets can be ground stacked or used in approved flown configurations.
For ground stacking, the enclosure has skids on the bottom that align with slots on the top of another cabinet. This helps position cabinets in a stack. Every proposed stack must still follow Meyer Sound’s instructions and be assessed for the site where it will be used.
With the optional QuickFly MRF-600 rigging frame, the 600-HP was designed to integrate directly with Meyer Sound MICA loudspeakers. Optional rigging equipment allows a sound designer to develop configurations where subwoofers and main arrays are incorporated into a planned flown system.
Rigging hardware is configuration dependent. Confirm whether a used 600-HP has the relevant frame and components before buying it for a flown application. Suspension and load calculations should be handled by qualified rigging professionals.
Designed to Complement Meyer Sound MICA
The 600-HP enclosure is the same width as a Meyer Sound MICA cabinet. This relationship is useful in systems where the subwoofers and MICA loudspeakers need to form a coordinated physical arrangement.
When equipped with the appropriate optional hardware, a 600-HP can be rigged with MICA. For a company already using MICA, that compatibility can make the model particularly interesting when expanding or maintaining an existing system.
The 600-HP can also complement other Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers. Meyer Sound’s datasheet identifies the CQ-1, CQ-2, UPA-1P, UPA-2P and UPJ-1P among the models that may be used with it.
Compatibility does not mean that every combination needs the same processing settings. The final crossover, level, delay and equalisation should be selected for the actual loudspeakers and verified during system setup.
System Processing and Bass Alignment
A professional subwoofer must work with the main loudspeakers as part of one sound system. The transition between the subwoofer and the main cabinets has a strong effect on the clarity and impact of the finished result.
System processing can manage signal routing, crossover settings, level, equalisation and delay. A technician can then measure the response at the venue and adjust the system for its layout and intended use.
If the subwoofers and main loudspeakers are poorly aligned, energy around the crossover region may combine unevenly. Proper alignment helps the system deliver more consistent bass and a smoother transition into the main loudspeakers.
When enquiring about a Meyer Sound 600-HP, include the models and number of main loudspeakers you already own. This makes it easier to discuss the subwoofer as part of your full equipment package.
Cabinet Construction and Transport
The 600-HP cabinet is made from premium birch plywood with a black textured finish. A powder-coated steel grille protects the front of the enclosure. Its construction was intended for professional touring and fixed installations.
The published dimensions are approximately 1052 mm wide × 572 mm high × 559 mm deep. A standard cabinet weighs approximately 82.6 kg; the version with rigging is listed at approximately 97.5 kg.
These figures should be considered when planning transport and delivery. Check doorway widths, vehicle loading space, storage arrangements and the equipment needed to move cabinets safely at the venue.
Meyer Sound described optional caster frames and a dolly board for transporting the 600-HP. Whether either accessory is included in a used sale depends on the actual equipment offered. Ask for photographs and an itemised list if transport accessories are important to your purchase.
Versions, Connectors and Monitoring
The 600-HP was available in different configurations, including portable and installation versions, as well as a version fitted with rigging hardware. That is one reason rear-panel and side photographs are valuable when comparing used units.
Depending on the unit, the audio connection may use XLR input and loop output or a VEAM all-in-one connection. AC connector types also vary by configuration. Confirm the connections on the actual cabinets before ordering compatible cables or adding them to an existing inventory.
Meyer Sound’s RMS remote monitoring was standard with the rigging version described in its datasheet and optional on other configurations. Do not assume a used cabinet includes RMS simply because another 600-HP listing does.
For a multi-unit system, matching connector and monitoring configurations can make preparation easier. Tell Sound Pro Tech if you need the units to match equipment you already operate.
Applications for the 600-HP
The Meyer Sound 600-HP can serve a wide range of professional uses. Meyer Sound identified medium to large theatres and clubs, houses of worship, and portable or installed AV systems among its applications.
For concerts and live events, it can provide bass reinforcement beneath suitable main loudspeakers. For theatres and performance spaces, its flexible placement options help a designer work within the room’s physical requirements.
A rental company may value its self-powered format and its relationship with existing Meyer Sound equipment. A venue owner may be more concerned with cabinet placement, available power and how the subwoofers will integrate with the installed main system.
In every case, the number and arrangement of cabinets should be selected for the application. A single subwoofer specification cannot describe the performance of a complete PA system.
Buying a Used Meyer Sound 600-HP
When buying a used 600-HP, begin with the condition of the exact cabinet being offered. Request photographs of the grille, enclosure, rear module, connectors, identification label and any rigging components.
Ask whether both 15-inch drivers operate properly and whether the amplifier, audio connections and cooling system have been tested. If you are purchasing several units, confirm the quantity, connector versions and any differences in their condition.
An invoice or quotation should state what is included. Power cables, signal cables, covers, dollies, caster frames and rigging hardware should be listed individually where applicable.
