The MAILA is a pioneering system for professional live sound applications

In contrast to the MAILA S, M and L ground stack systems, MAILA XXL was primarily designed for flown applications, but can also be reconfigured into a MAILA L ground stack system without additional investment if required. MAILA XXL is therefore not “one” product, but a scalable stereo sound reinforcement system that sets new standards in terms of diversity and flexibility. MAILA XXL combines several acoustic concepts to create a unique sound reinforcement solution: bandpass subwoofer with cardioid function, column element with integrated DSP amplifier and coaxial satellite with line array functionality.

The low frequency base of MAILA XXL is formed by six 2.5 kW 2×15” high-performance subwoofers(MAILA SUB) in bandpass design, which deliver a massive and powerful bass foundation with their newly developed SysCore® DSP. The hangs are each powered by a MAILA COL full-range column module with integrated 4-channel DSP amplifier (2.5 kW) and SysCore® DSP, which provides an extended low-mid range with its 4x 6.5” woofers.

Eight MAILA SAT satellites in elegant unibody aluminum housings sit beneath the COL column elements. The connection between COL and SAT as well as between the satellites is completely wireless via the newly developed SmartLink+® rails. Based on Advanced WaveAhead® technology, each SAT has five 1” tweeters, which are positioned in front of a 6.5” midrange driver and are brought together via two waveguides without interference. Furthermore, the integrated passive cone provides more punch down to 100 Hz despite the satellite’s compact dimensions. The result is a classic line array dispersion pattern with impressive throw distance and sound bundling right into the last corner of the room.

On the back of the housing of each MAILA SAT is a rotating handle that conceals a pioneering innovation: the patented EasySplay® mechanism allows users to adjust the tilt of each individual satellite from 0° to 8° in the blink of an eye. The angle can be adjusted with just one hand, even under load. In this way, every MAILA system offers a uniquely flexible concept for adjusting the sound coverage to any sound reinforcement situation at any time.

Every MAILA system can be customized quickly, easily and in detail directly on the device or via the free MAILA app (iPadOS) and supplied with software updates wirelessly. Based on the integrated LogoLink® Wireless Connection, ranges of up to 30 meters are no problem for MAILA under practical conditions. Once connected, the app automatically recognizes the existing MAILA components and enables quick and easy setup of the system – including calculation of the SAT angles – in the run-up to an event. The highlight: the required wireless antennas are invisibly integrated into the LD logo (LogoLink®).
