The MAUI 44 G3 combines a low-tuned bass-reflex subwoofer with a total of 14 neodymium midrange drivers and four compression drivers. The column’s passive cardioid design reduces rear sound radiation by up to 18 dB. Specially developed waveguides and phase plugs ensure even sound distribution toward the audience. Added to this are second-generation DynX DSP, Bluetooth 5.4, and automatic column detection for quick setup.

LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 – professional column PA system with controlled sound dispersion

With the MAUI 44 G3, LD Systems offers an active column speaker system that combines high sound output with the ease of use of the MAUI series. The system is designed for professional DJs, bands, and event service providers who need powerful music reproduction with clear mids, precise highs, and deep bass.

The fully active 4-way architecture utilizes different driver groups and dedicated amplifier channels for each frequency range. The crossover frequencies are 200 Hz, 700 Hz, and 1,800 Hz. This configuration allows the various speaker components to be specifically optimized for their respective tasks.

The LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 active 4-way cardioid column PA system is finished in black. The subwoofer features a durable birch plywood enclosure with a polyurea coating, while the column elements are made of powder-coated aluminum. Both components are designed for regular professional use.

15-inch neodymium subwoofer for powerful low bass down to 34 Hz

The MAUI 44 G3’s low-frequency foundation is provided by a powerful 15-inch neodymium woofer with a 4-inch voice coil. It operates in a bass-reflex enclosure and ensures powerful, precise reproduction of low frequencies. The frequency response of the entire system extends down to 34 Hz at -10 dB.

Controlled low-frequency reproduction is particularly important for music with pronounced bass content. That’s why LD Systems relies on specially flow-optimized bass-reflex ports in the MAUI 44 G3. These reduce air turbulence and the resulting airflow noise.

The bass-reflex design ensures well-defined reproduction even at higher volumes. This allows the subwoofer to utilize its power reserves without unwanted port noise interfering with bass reproduction.

The subwoofer enclosure is made of 18 mm thick birch multiplex and features a durable polyurea coating. A steel front grille completes the design. Four ergonomic carrying handles make it easy to transport and position the subwoofer.

14 neodymium midrange drivers for balanced sound reproduction

The MAUI 44 G3’s two-piece speaker column is equipped with a total of 14 midrange drivers. Each driver has a diameter of 3.5 inches, a neodymium magnet, and a 1-inch voice coil.

The midrange drivers handle a significant portion of the reproduction of vocals and instruments. This frequency range plays a particularly important role in live music, as it contains numerous sonic details and essential elements of the vocals.

In the lower column section, LD Systems uses horn-loaded midrange drivers. This design increases efficiency and enables high dynamic headroom. At the same time, it supports powerful and clear reproduction in the vocal range.

The midrange drivers are arranged to produce a coherent wavefront. Together with the high-frequency components, this results in controlled reproduction that is optimized for audience coverage.

Four compression drivers with BEM-optimized waveguides

For high-frequency reproduction, the LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 active 4-way cardioid column PA system features four 1-inch compression drivers. These drivers feature neodymium magnets and operate with specially developed waveguides.

The upper column element incorporates newly developed phase plugs and BEM-optimized waveguides. They support uniform sound dispersion and help direct the high frequencies in a controlled manner toward the intended listening area.

The system has a horizontal dispersion angle of 120 degrees and a vertical dispersion angle of 25 degrees. This dispersion pattern is designed for wide horizontal coverage while limiting vertical sound distribution.

The combination of horn-loaded midrange drivers, compression drivers, and optimized waveguides enables balanced midrange and high-frequency reproduction. Controlled sound dispersion is a particularly important feature when listeners are at greater distances from the loudspeaker system.

Passive cardioid design with up to 18 dB of rear attenuation

A distinctive feature of the MAUI 44 G3 is the passive cardioid design of the loudspeaker column. This design directs sound energy primarily toward the audience while simultaneously reducing rear sound radiation.

In the frequency range between 100 Hz and 1 kHz, the system achieves up to 18 dB of rear sound attenuation. As a result, less unwanted sound reaches the area behind the loudspeaker system.

This feature can be particularly advantageous at live events. If musicians and microphones are located behind the column speaker, the reduced rear radiation helps to lower the sound level in that area.

The cardioid design complements the controlled sound guidance provided by the waveguides and phase plugs. As a result, the MAUI 44 G3 combines high sound pressure levels with targeted distribution of sound energy.

Expandable with a second MAUI 44 G3 subwoofer

For applications with higher demands on bass reproduction, the MAUI 44 G3 can be combined with a second MAUI 44 G3 SUB. Depending on the orientation of the additional subwoofer, two different application options are available.

Additional bass impact from a second subwoofer

If the additional subwoofer is oriented forward, it serves to enhance bass reproduction. According to the manufacturer, this configuration increases the sound pressure level in the low-frequency range by 6 dB.

This setup is suitable for sound reinforcement applications where additional low-frequency reserves are required. The second subwoofer complements the existing low-frequency system and enables higher bass output.

Cardioid subwoofer setup for directional bass radiation

Alternatively, the second MAUI 44 G3 SUB can be oriented toward the rear. In combination with the corresponding cardioid preset, rear sound radiation in the bass range can be reduced.

With this configuration, bass energy is primarily directed toward the audience, while it is significantly reduced behind the system. This allows the column’s directional dispersion concept to be extended to the low-frequency range.

3,600 watts of peak power and second-generation DynX DSP

The MAUI 44 G3 features an integrated Class D amplifier with 1,800 watts RMS output power and 3,600 watts peak power. The maximum sound pressure level is 133 dB SPL.

The fully active 4-way architecture utilizes dedicated driver groups and amplifier channels for the different frequency ranges. The crossover frequencies are 200 Hz, 700 Hz, and 1,800 Hz.

For digital signal processing, LD Systems uses the second-generation DynX DSP. This features advanced peak, RMS, and thermal limiters that ensure controlled playback even at high volumes.

The integrated limiters also serve to protect the speaker components and amplifier electronics. In this way, the signal processing complements the power reserves of the power amplifier with important protective functions.

The system’s frequency response ranges from 37 Hz to 20,000 Hz at -6 dB and from 34 Hz to 20,000 Hz at -10 dB. The minimum signal-to-noise ratio is 106 dB. The AD/DA converters operate at a sampling rate of 48 kHz and the specified bit depths of 32 and 24 bits, respectively.

Bluetooth 5.4 for wireless audio streaming

The LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 active 4-way cardioid array column PA system supports wireless audio transmission via Bluetooth 5.4. This allows compatible audio sources to be connected to the speaker system without additional audio cables.

Supported audio codecs include AAC, SBC, and aptX. The available codecs enable audio transmission from compatible devices.

Bluetooth complements the existing wired connections and offers an additional option for music playback. This means the system can be used with appropriate audio cables as well as via a wireless audio connection.

Two combo inputs and three XLR outputs

For wired signal transmission, the MAUI 44 G3 features two XLR/jack combo inputs. These can be used to connect compatible audio sources to the speaker system.

On the output side, there are a total of three three-pin XLR connectors. These include two thru outputs and a dedicated subwoofer output.

The thru outputs allow for the routing of corresponding audio signals. The separate subwoofer output is designed to expand the speaker system and enhances the options for adjusting bass reproduction.

The MAUI 44 G3 is the version without an integrated digital mixer. SysLink is also not included with this model. The connection options are designed for use as an active sound reinforcement system.

Quick setup with automatic column detection

The MAUI 44 G3 combines its extensive speaker technology with a straightforward setup concept. The two-part column is connected without separate cables between the column elements. Automatic column detection complements the system.

This allows the speaker components to be quickly connected to one another. This ease of use is a practical advantage, especially for events that require regular setup and takedown.

The column elements are made of powder-coated aluminum. The complete column unit is 103 mm wide, 1,626 mm tall, and 136 mm deep. It weighs 12 kg. Two carrying handles facilitate transport.
