MICA
Compact high-power curvilinear array loudspeaker
The MICA compact high-powered curvilinear array loudspeaker is the newest and smallest member of the acclaimed MILO family of loudspeakers. MICA brings the very high output and smooth, extended high-frequency response that is the MILO family’s sonic signature to a smaller package with broad 100-degree horizontal coverage. This makes MICA ideal for applications that do not require quite as much power and throw distance as MILO or where weight and size are a concern. MICA is suited to a wide variety of applications such as touring, rental, and fixed installation, and its sonic compatibility with MILO makes it an excellent component in a MILO family system.
MICA offers all of the benefits of Meyer Sound’s 25 years of manufacturing controller-assisted loudspeakers and 10 years making self-powered systems, including carrying integral amplification, complex crossover, driver protection and frequency and phase correction circuitry onboard. MICA’s
compact high-power curvilinear array loudspeaker
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Very high power-to-size ratio
Exceptional fidelity and
transient response for intelligibility and high-impact
Seamless integration with MILO
Wide and even horizontal
coverage pattern
QuickFly rigging system with
new captive GuideALinks simplifies use in flown or groundstacked arrays
APPLICATIONS
components are all newly designed specifically for it and manufactured at Meyer Sound’s Berkeley factory to meet stringent performance specifications and rigorous quality controls. As with all Meyer Sound systems, MICA exhibits flat frequency and phase response across its wide operating range of 60 Hz to 18 kHz.
MICA is built for touring, with its new QuickFly rigging featuring captive GuideALinks and a built-in “balcony bar” capability, as well as dimensions that provide an efficient truck pack.
With a peak output of 138 dB SPL, MICA sets a new standard for power-to-size ratio and raises the bar for performance in a compact curvilinear array system, whether it is on the road or fixed in one place.

MI CA
“With the success of MILO, we started hearing from customers who wanted MILO’s performance in a format appropriate for smaller venues. MICA brings the exceptional fidelity and high power-to-size ratio of MILO to that range of applications, as well as smoothly integrating with MILO in larger systems.”

ALL NEW COMPONENTS: THE HEART OF THE SYSTEM
MICA is a three-way system whose primary components were designed from scratch, building on everything Meyer Sound has learned to date about making loudspeaker drivers and electronics.
Low/Mid-Frequency Section
MICA covers low and mid frequencies with two high-power, neodymium magnet 10-inch cone drivers with 2-inch voice coils, each housed in its own vented enclosure within the loudspeaker. The two drivers operate in a two-way configuration: both work in parallel at lower frequencies to take advantage of their combined acoustic output, while one rolls off before the crossover frequency to maintain optimal polar and frequency response.
