LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 W Description
The LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 W combines high-output amplification with advanced acoustic design to deliver detailed sound across a wide frequency range. Its custom 15-inch neodymium woofer features a 4-inch voice coil and an airflow-optimized bass-reflex enclosure that reduces turbulence and port noise while providing precise low-frequency reproduction. The two-piece column houses 14 custom 3.5-inch neodymium midrange drivers and four 1-inch compression drivers. Horn-loaded midrange sections, BEM-optimized waveguides, and phase plugs work together to improve efficiency, vocal clarity, and consistent sound distribution across the listening area.
The system's passive cardioid column design directs sound toward the audience while reducing rearward radiation by up to 18 dB across the 100 Hz to 1 kHz frequency range. Its 120° horizontal by 25° vertical dispersion provides broad audience coverage while limiting unnecessary vertical spread. The fully active Class-D amplifier delivers 1800W RMS and 3600W peak power, supporting a maximum SPL of 133 dB. DynX DSP Generation 2 incorporates advanced peak, RMS, and thermal limiting to protect the system while maintaining controlled audio performance. Dedicated amplifier channels and crossover frequencies at 200 Hz, 700 Hz, and 1800 Hz optimize reproduction across the four-way speaker architecture.
For applications requiring additional bass performance, the MAUI 44 G3 W can be expanded with an optional MAUI 44 G3 SUB W. Positioning the additional subwoofer facing forward can increase low-frequency output by up to 6 dB, while a rear-facing arrangement with the Cardioid preset activated helps reduce bass radiation behind the system. Two XLR/TRS combo inputs, two XLR Thru outputs, and a dedicated subwoofer output provide flexible connectivity for external mixers, audio sources, and system expansion. Bluetooth 5.4 with supported audio codecs enables wireless music playback from compatible devices without requiring additional playback hardware.
Designed for demanding professional use, the MAUI 44 G3 W features an 18 mm birch multiplex subwoofer enclosure finished with durable white polyurea coating and powder-coated aluminum columns. Four ergonomic subwoofer handles and recessed column handles make transportation and positioning more manageable. The cable-free column connection and automatic detection simplify assembly without requiring separate speaker cables between the system components. Its white finish makes the system suitable for weddings, corporate productions, houses of worship, live performances, and event installations where both sound performance and appearance are important.
