LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 MIX 4-Way Cardioid Column PA System w/Mixer - White

LD Systems MAUI 44 G3 MIX 4-Way Cardioid Column PA System w/Mixer - White

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX is a high-performance, fully active 4-way column PA system with a passive cardioid column design and an integrated 8-channel digital mixer. Developed for demanding live performances, it combines powerful full-range sound, plenty of headroom, controlled dispersion and comprehensive mixing capabilities with the fast, straightforward handling the MAUI series is known for.

The integrated digital mixer provides 8 XLR/TRS combo inputs, 6 of which feature microphone preamps, plus on-board effects and a footswitch connection for hands-free control. Bluetooth audio streaming enables convenient, high-quality wireless playback. Four monitor outputs and a dedicated system output provide flexible monitoring and routing options.

All mixer and system settings can be controlled directly from the integrated colour display or wirelessly via the free MAUI MIX app for iOS and Android. The SysLink port connects two MAUI 44 G3 MIX systems for true stereo operation, providing centralised control of all 16 channels across both systems.

The high-power 15" neodymium woofer delivers punchy, precise low end down to 34 Hz. Specially airflow-optimised bass reflex ports reduce turbulence and port noise, ensuring clean, defined bass even at high output levels.

The two-piece column houses a total of 14 3.5" neodymium midrange drivers and 4 1" compression drivers. In the upper column section, newly developed phase plugs and BEM-optimised waveguides ensure even, controlled dispersion. The lower column section features horn-loaded midrange drivers for increased efficiency, substantial headroom and powerful, clear vocal reproduction. The result is coherent mid- and high-frequency reproduction with a dispersion pattern of 120° 25°.

The column's passive cardioid design directs sound energy towards the audience while attenuating rearward radiation by up to 18 dB. This significantly reduces unwanted sound on stage. With an additional rear-facing MAUI 44 G3 SUB and the Cardioid preset, this principle can be extended to the low-frequency range, increasing bass output towards the audience while noticeably reducing it behind the system. For maximum bass boost, the second subwoofer can instead be positioned facing forwards, doubling the sound pressure in the low-frequency range (+6 dB).

The Class-D amplifier delivers 1,800 W RMS (3,600 W peak), enabling a maximum SPL of 133 dB. The fully active 4-way architecture uses dedicated driver groups and amplifier channels for each frequency band. Crossover frequencies are set at 200 Hz, 700 Hz and 1,800 Hz. Equipped with DynX DSP (Gen. 2) and advanced peak, RMS and thermal limiters, the MAUI 44 G3 MIX delivers clean, undistorted sound even at the highest output levels.

The polyurea-coated birch multiplex subwoofer enclosure and rugged aluminium columns are built to withstand everyday professional use. Four ergonomic carrying handles on the subwoofer and recessed handles in the columns make transport and handling easier.

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX is ideal for solo performers, duos, bands and event service providers who want professional sound reinforcement, integrated mixing and flexible monitoring in one system.

Fully Active 4-Way System

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX delivers the same acoustic performance as the MAUI 44 G3. Its fully active 4-way system combines 14 3.5″ neodymium midrange drivers and 4 1″ compression drivers with dedicated amplifier channels for each frequency band. With 1,800 W RMS (3,600 W peak) and a maximum SPL of 133 dB, it delivers powerful, detailed sound. The passive cardioid column reduces sound radiated towards the rear by up to 18 dB (100 Hz–1 kHz), helping to minimise unwanted sound on stage.

Deep Bass Down to 34 Hz

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX features a high-performance 15″ neodymium woofer in a low-tuned bass reflex enclosure, delivering powerful, precise deep bass down to 34 Hz. Airflow-optimised bass reflex ports reduce turbulence and unwanted port noise, keeping the low end clean, defined and punchy even at high output levels.

Built-In 8-Channel Digital Mixer

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX brings sound reinforcement and mixing together in one system. Its integrated 8-channel digital mixer features eight XLR/TRS combo inputs, six of them equipped with microphone preamps, allowing you to connect microphones, instruments and line-level sources directly. Built-in effects, Bluetooth audio streaming and a footswitch input provide additional flexibility for live performances. All mixer settings can be controlled directly from the integrated colour display or wirelessly via the MAUI MIX app.

3,600 W Peak Power

With 1,800 W RMS (3,600 W peak) and a maximum SPL of 133 dB, the MAUI 44 G3 delivers the power and headroom needed for live performances, DJ sets and events. Its Class-D amplifier and integrated DynX DSP (Gen. 2) work together to deliver clean, controlled sound even at high output levels, while advanced limiters protect the system.

Clear Sound. Even Coverage.

The MAUI 44 G3 MIX combines 14 3.5″ neodymium midrange drivers with 4 1″ compression drivers for powerful, detailed sound. In the upper column, the BEM-optimised waveguide provides even high-frequency coverage, while the phase plugs support controlled midrange dispersion. Horn-loaded midrange drivers in the lower column increase efficiency and headroom, delivering powerful, clear reproduction of vocals and instruments with controlled 120° 25° dispersion.

SysLink – Stereo & Unified Control

SysLink lets you connect two MAUI 44 G3 MIX systems for stereo operation, expanding your setup to a total of 16 input channels. Both systems can be controlled centrally through the MAUI MIX app, giving you access to all channels in one place. This makes it easy to manage more microphones, instruments and audio sources while benefiting from the power and coverage of a stereo PA system.
