800W Portable Column PA System with Bluetooth and 4-Channel Mixer
The LD Systems MAUI 5 is an ultra-compact powered column PA system designed for mobile DJs, solo musicians, presenters, fitness instructors, houses of worship, and small venues. Featuring an 8-inch bass-reflex subwoofer, four 3-inch neodymium mid/high-frequency drivers, and an integrated 800W peak Class-D amplifier, this portable system delivers up to 120 dB peak SPL with a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz. Its 120° horizontal by 20° vertical coverage provides wide, controlled sound dispersion, while the built-in 4-channel mixer supports microphones, instruments, line-level sources, and Bluetooth audio streaming. LD Systems LECC DSP processing optimizes system performance and provides protection, while the four-piece modular design assembles in seconds using integrated multipin connectors without external speaker cables.

LD Systems MAUI 5 Description
The LD Systems MAUI 5 brings full-range sound reinforcement to an ultra-portable column PA design that is easy to transport and assemble. Its integrated amplifier provides 800W peak power and 200W RMS output through an 8-inch bass-reflex subwoofer and a vertical array containing four 3-inch neodymium drivers. The subwoofer incorporates a ferrite magnet and 2-inch voice coil, while the mid/high-frequency drivers feature lightweight neodymium magnets and 1-inch voice coils. Together, these components deliver a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz and a maximum peak sound pressure level of 120 dB. The column array provides 120° horizontal and 20° vertical dispersion, helping distribute clear vocals, instruments, and music across the listening area. This makes the MAUI 5 suitable for solo performers, acoustic musicians, mobile DJs, fitness instructors, small events, and speech reinforcement applications.
The built-in 4-channel mixer provides flexible control over a variety of audio sources. A balanced XLR/1/4-inch combination microphone input accommodates compatible microphones, while two rear-panel XLR/1/4-inch combination line inputs accept signals from mixers, keyboards, and other audio equipment. A dedicated 1/4-inch Hi-Z input supports direct connection of compatible guitars and other high-impedance instruments, and a 3.5 mm stereo input provides a convenient connection for music players and other portable devices. The system also includes Bluetooth audio streaming for wireless playback. Separate front-panel level controls are provided for microphone, line, MP3/Hi-Z, and Bluetooth sources. The MP3 and Hi-Z connections can be used simultaneously, although they share one level control. Dedicated main volume, subwoofer level, and Hi-Boost controls allow performers to balance overall output, bass response, and treble to suit the performance environment.
Sound processing is handled by LD Systems' proprietary LECC DSP technology, which combines limiting, equalization, compression, and crossover management. The multiband limiter helps protect the loudspeakers from excessive signal levels, while equalization and crossover processing optimize the balance between the subwoofer and column drivers. Dynamic compression automatically adjusts bass enhancement according to operating levels, helping preserve a controlled low-frequency response as the overall system volume changes. The microphone input also features a 100 Hz low-cut filter to reduce unwanted rumble and handling noise. Additional protection against overcurrent, overheating, and short circuits helps safeguard the integrated Class-D amplifier and power supply. LED indicators provide visual information for power, signal, limiting, protection status, and Bluetooth operation.
Portability is a major advantage of the MAUI 5. The complete system consists of four modular components: one powered subwoofer base, two identical column spacers, and one speaker array module containing the four 3-inch drivers. Assembly requires no tools or external speaker cables because the components connect through custom multipin connectors. The speaker array can be installed using either one or both spacer sections, allowing the height to be adjusted for different applications. At its full assembled height, the system measures approximately 78.1 inches tall, while the subwoofer base occupies a footprint of just 12.0 x 15.6 inches. The entire system weighs approximately 24.9 lb (11.3 kg), making it practical for performers and presenters who frequently transport their equipment. Its slim column profile also provides a discreet appearance in venues where floor space and visual presentation are important.
The MAUI 5 is designed to serve as both a compact PA and a monitoring solution. Its wide horizontal coverage and resistance to feedback allow performers to position the system nearby in suitable configurations, potentially reducing the need for a separate stage monitor. The subwoofer enclosure houses the amplifier, mixer, DSP, and internal switch-mode power supply, keeping the entire system self-contained. The unit operates from compatible AC mains power through a standard IEC connection and includes a power cable. Available in black as model LDMAUI5, the system also has a separate white version designated LDMAUI5W. Optional accessories include the LDM5SATBAG column transport bag and LDM5SUBPC subwoofer protective cover, both sold separately. With its integrated amplification, four-channel mixer, Bluetooth playback, automatic DSP processing, and quick modular assembly, the MAUI 5 provides a versatile sound solution for portable entertainment and smaller professional audio applications.
