Buy Meyer Sound LYON Line Array Loudspeakers | musicconcertevent.com
If you want to buy Meyer Sound LYON units at a price that makes sense for your rental company, touring rig, or production business, musicconcertevent.com has 12 units available at €3,500 per unit. The model is the LYON-M 90° with a 5-pin XLR input. Each unit is self-powered with no external amplifier required. Additionally, when you order a minimum of 4 units, the MCF castor frame dolly for 4 and the PC4 pullover dust cover for 4 are included at no extra charge.
These are second-hand units from 2019 and are in perfect working condition rated 2 to 3 out of 5 cosmetically, meaning they show normal professional use wear. The Meyer Sound LYON carries strong rider recognition across the USA and Europe and holds its resale value well on the secondary market. Because the LYON is a self-powered cabinet with all amplification and DSP built in, you can deploy it immediately without purchasing amplifier racks.
What Is the Meyer Sound LYON? Specs, Weight, and Price
The Meyer Sound LYON is a self-powered linear line array loudspeaker that delivers the same headroom and precision as the acclaimed LEO-M with the same cutting-edge technology in a lighter and more compact cabinet. Optimized rigging and self-powered configuration streamlines both setup and breakdown.
The LYON is available in two primary configurations: LYON-M for primary array coverage and LYON-W for wide coverage. This listing covers the LYON-M in 90° horizontal coverage. LYON integrates seamlessly with Meyer Sound’s LEO-M and 1100-LFC for larger multi-format system configurations.
The LYON incorporates internal processing and a 3-channel Class AB/H bridged amplifier with complementary MOSFET output stages. Two 3-inch diaphragm compression drivers are coupled to a constant-directivity horn through a patented REM manifold, and two 12-inch long-excursion cone drivers handle the low frequency section.

Meyer Sound LYON Price: Estimated Retail Value and Resale Margin
Understanding where this listing sits against the current used market helps you assess the value before committing.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Our asking price per unit | €3,500 |
| Comparable used LYON-M (Stage Experts, 24 units, with dolly and cover) | €4,450 per unit ex-VAT |
| 4-unit minimum order price | €14,000 (plus free dolly and cover) |
| 12-unit full lot price | €42,000 |
At €3,500 per unit, this listing prices the LYON-M approximately €950 per unit below comparable used inventory from Stage Experts on the European secondary market. Because the dolly and cover come free with every 4-unit order, the effective value per unit on a minimum order is stronger than the headline price alone suggests.

What Is a PA System and Where Does the LYON Fit?
A PA system is the combination of loudspeakers, amplifiers, signal processors, and cabling that delivers amplified audio to an audience at live events. In professional touring and fixed installation contexts, this typically includes a main left-right hang, subwoofers, delays or fills, and a mixing console at FOH.
The Meyer Sound LYON fills the main hang role in a PA system for medium to large productions. Because it is self-powered, it eliminates the amplifier racks that passive systems like L-Acoustics require. Pair LYON arrays with Meyer Sound’s 1100-LFC low-frequency control element for bass reproduction, and drive the entire system with Meyer Sound’s Galileo GALAXY Network Platform, which provides 24-bit, 96 kHz audio, matrix routing, alignment, and processing for all array components.
Best PA Systems to Use for Events: How LYON Compares
| System | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Meyer Sound LYON-M + 1100-LFC | Concerts, corporate, theatre, performing arts, outdoor | Self-powered, no amp racks needed |
| Meyer Sound LEO-M | Stadium and large outdoor festival main stages | Higher output class, LYON integrates below as fill |
| Meyer Sound LEOPARD | Compact touring, corporate, install | Smaller format than LYON |
| L-Acoustics K3 + KS28 | Mid-size festivals, 1,000–10,000 audiences | Passive system, requires LA12X amplification |
| d&b audiotechnik J-Series | Touring, theatre, corporate Europe | Passive system, requires D80 or D20 amplification |
For full MAPP system design support, Galileo GALAXY configuration guidance, and LYON deployment planning, the team at Sasphonik provides specialist technical consultation for Meyer Sound systems at all scales.
Meyer Sound LYON vs LEOPARD vs PANTHER: Which System Is Right for You?
| System | Format | Best Application | SPL |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meyer Sound LYON-M | 90° horizontal, 12″ LF | Medium to large concerts, performing arts, corporate | 143.5 dB peak |
| Meyer Sound LEOPARD | Compact line array | Corporate, touring, small to mid-size events | Details not provided |
| Meyer Sound PANTHER | Large-format line array | Large outdoor events, stadium touring | Details not provided |
The LYON-M sits between the compact LEOPARD and the large-format PANTHER in the Meyer Sound line array portfolio. For production companies targeting mid-size events and performing arts venues, the LYON-M is the most commercially versatile option in the three-system range.

What to Consider Before Starting a PA Event Company or Rental Business With LYON
If this LYON inventory forms the starting point of a new production or rental operation, address these practical points first:
- No amplifier required: The LYON-M is fully self-powered. Each unit carries its own amplification and DSP internally. This significantly reduces the upfront cost and truck space compared to passive systems.
- System processing: Meyer Sound recommends driving complete LYON systems with the Galileo GALAXY Network Platform, which provides 24-bit, 96 kHz audio, matrix routing, alignment, and processing for all array components. Budget for Galileo GALAXY alongside the speaker purchase.
- Rigging infrastructure: Flying a LYON array requires the MTG-LYON top grid assembly, an appropriate motor, and structural load calculations for every venue. The GuideALinks rigging system allows splay angles from 0.5° to 9°, which covers most touring configurations.
- System design software: Loudspeaker system predictions for coverage and SPL are available in Meyer Sound’s MAPP System Design Tool. Running MAPP predictions before every event allows you to optimize array curvature, verify rigging load ratings, and confirm coverage before rigging begins.
- Transport: Each LYON-M weighs 90.3 kg and measures 969 mm wide. A 12-unit inventory requires a truck with appropriate load capacity and secure load fixing. The MCF castor frames make in-venue handling manageable.
- Insurance: Professional AV equipment used at live events requires specialist event production insurance. Standard commercial policies across France and most EU countries do not cover live show liability or equipment damage in transit.
- Pricing your rentals: Before setting day rates, research what comparable LYON systems rent for in your region of France and in neighboring European markets including Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain.

Why Our LYON Inventory Is Different
Most used Meyer Sound listings give you very little to work with. A model name, a photo, and a price. Condition stays vague. What comes free with your order goes unstated. Furthermore, the minimum order terms that unlock accessories are buried or absent entirely.
At musicconcertevent.com, we state the exact model (LYON-M 90°), the connector type (5-pin XLR), the condition rating honestly (2 to 3 of 5 cosmetically, perfect working order), the minimum order threshold that unlocks the free dolly and cover, and the exact number of units in stock. That level of specificity applies to every listing we post.
