degree horizontal polar pattern below 500 Hz. The acousti-
cal manifold, based on Meyer Sound’s patented REM™ rib-
bon emulation technology, radiates driver output with very
low distortion and a focused, well-behaved, narrow disper-
sion, minimizing destructive high-frequency interactions
between cabinets.
The MINA drivers are powered by an extremely efficient
onboard three-channel, Class-D amplifier that uses minimal
AC power when idle. Signal processing includes a complex
crossover, frequency and phase correction, and limiters that
ensure maximum driver lifespan. The Intelligent AC™ power
supply automatically adjusts for international line voltages,
protects against transients, and provides soft turn-on.
The RMS™ remote monitoring system module comes stan-
dard on all MILO family loudspeakers and provides compre-
hensive monitoring of system parameters on a Windows
® -
based computer.
The MINA enclosure is constructed of premium birch ply-
wood and coated with a black-textured finish. A powder-
coated, hex-stamped steel grille with black mesh protects
the unit’s drivers. Additional options include weather protec-
tion and custom color finishes for fixed installations and
applications with specific cosmetic requirements.
With its low distortion, flat frequency and phase responses,
uniform horizontal coverage, and tight vertical coverage,
MINA is also well-equipped for use as a single cabinet, or for
use with a small number of cabinets, for applications requir-
ing a precise, high-frequency vertical pattern. Single cabi-
nets and short stacks are ideal for frontfill and under-
balcony applications, as well for main systems in small
spaces. MINA integrates seamlessly with other members of
the MILO family, partnering naturally with M’elodie
® and
MICA ® .
The MTF-M’elodie/MINA transition frame integrates MINAs
in M’elodie arrays for downfill, flies MINA arrays under
500-HP subwoofers, and groundstacks MINAs on top of
500-HPs.
