Meyer Sound ULTRA-X40 - The Best Speaker I've Ever Hear?! Review/ Unboxing

The Meyer Sound ULTRA-X40 might be the Mount Everest of portable point-source speakers. Two 8-inch drivers, a 3-inch compression driver, 110° wide coverage, 1,950 watts of amplification and up to 138 dB max SPL — all in a 52 lb cabinet. In this video I test it for myself and explain why the output, clarity, weight and incredibly wide dispersion impressed me so much. Also at idle there is no audible hiss.
