Power in an award-winning design

The LD Systems Maui 5 is a remarkably lightweight PA for sound systems in small venues. Awarded the reddot design award, the Maui 5 is easy to operate, and flexible, too, thanks to its practical Bluetooth connectivity. In essence, it's an ultra-portable column PA, with an innovative design which has proven itself to be both effective and elegant. Among the more high-end features are the top-quality Class D amplifier and the ability to control the sound output's brilliance. The system, which is also available in white, is also notable for its comparatively high sound pressure and the instant, cable-free connection between the subwoofer and the column. Everyone who can happily do without extreme bass levels will be rewarded with a strikingly designed and lightweight sound system.

LD Systems Maui 5 column PA, controls and sockets

Lightweight unit with versatile connections

The whole setup weighs only 10.9kg and consists of an 8" subwoofer, two column spacers, and a 4x3" neodymium tweeter. Simply stack them together – and the PA is ready to go. Up to 120dB can be coaxed from the LD Systems Maui 5, with a frequency response from 50Hz to 20000Hz. The inputs are plugged into the top and back of the sub unit. Specifically, these are three Neutrik jack XLR combo sockets for line and microphone signals, a Hi-Z guitar input, a stereo mini-jack input for MP3 players or smartphones, and a Bluetooth connection. Limiter, equaliser, compressor, and crossover frequency are already set in the built-in DSP. The only things that need adjusting are the input levels, the total output, and the sub level.

Discreet elegance

For musicians performing in small venues, the LD Systems Maui 5 provides powerful amplification that can be set up in minutes. Whether it’s a solo act or a singer with a pianist, this PA makes it easy to tweak levels mid-performance – right on the sub itself, and never mind the dim glow of live stages. In addition, the top unit has an enormously high feedback resistance, so that vocals come across with great power and clarity, even when artists are performing on small stages well within the dispersion angle of the speakers. The wireless connectivity and speaker's unusual yet attractive design, which blends discreetly into its surroundings, also make it ideal for product reps and presenters. Operators of cafés, bars, or gallery spaces who occasionally put on live performances can also use the Maui 5 for background music the rest of the time.

About LD Systems

LD Systems originated in Germany and is a brand of the Adam Hall Group. The company’s ambition is to give musicians the freedom they need to effectively express their musical ideas on stage. To achieve this, LD Systems has developed products that include affordable speaker series, wireless microphones, and in-ear monitoring systems. LD Systems attaches great importance to the durability and user-friendliness of its products. Right from the development stage, attention is paid to simple, intuitive, and effective operability. LD Systems also pays great attention to the design of its equipment, so that the technology is not only acoustically but also visually attractive. Accordingly, LD Systems has already been awarded several renowned design prizes.

Flexible and extendable

Many musicians have to be ready to perform in front of a standing audience one night and a seated hall the next; equally, they might find themselves playing on the same level as their audience in some locations and then on a raised stage at the next gig. Thankfully, users can easily adjust the top unit of the LD Systems Maui 5 to the exact listening height of their audience simply by inserting one or both spacers into the subwoofer. What's special about this flexible functionality is that the setup can even be changed during operation without any audible pops or clicks: The Maui 5 is capable of adapting to any space at a moment's notice. And in order to perform in larger rooms, another unit can simply be added to create a full stereo sound system. By the way: There are robust Maui 5 bags available for transporting the subwoofer and satellite components of this practical PA.

Total dissapointment
Justin 3 08.03.2022
I bought it for acoustic live performances guitar + vocals.

I don't know, maybe after watching too many reviews I had huge expectations. But the sound is just terrible comparing to its rivals. Flat as earth for flatearthers. Sub is quite good, but in my case I wanted a full set , I already have HK nano with awful tops and powerful sub. Any simple active speaker does a better job than this. It is very extremely quiet. Absolutely no power at all.

I would sell it but I am a bad liar and I don't want to lie how good this is.

Maybe it's just me but I completely recommend avoiding this system.

Awesome speaker system
ChrisDys 15.08.2017
I was a little worried about buying this speaker as I didn't know how loud it would be. I was not disappointed. This is an amazing PA system for the price. The sound quality is great, the volume is very loud and the portability & setup is superb. I use this for hosting quizzes (some outdoors) and am very impressed with this product.

I have owned several PA systems, both small and large. I have used this maui for several live pub gigs. The Maui is light and easy to handle. Good power. Sound is fair, but the bass is a bit muddy and the mid hi drivers lack a bit of clarity. I had to use a seperate mixer with a fair amount of hi eq gain to make my Akg D5 sound natural and crisp. The built in hi boost barely affect sound at all. It seems to gain more in the 4k frequency and not 10k like it should in my opinion. The whole sound is a bit flat and boxy, and lacks brilliance and air to bring out the best of vocals and acoustic guitar. Honestly, my Nux stageman amp sounds a lot nicer.

I use this in a Band room with vocal channel and piano together, not too rock, but it cover very even on every corner.

It is really a simply package, easy to use, most of our people do not know how to use a mixer, however this system is really easy to control, and no. feed back at the a volume.

The compact MAUI 5 weighs in at only 25 lb. while delivering 800 watts of peak power and a maximum SPL of 120 dB. Providing both sound reinforcement with extended coverage and feedback resistant monitoring, the subwoofer base and 3-piece column system assembles in seconds with custom multi-pin connectors. The junior member of the MAUI family is most easily portable and fits onto any car seat.

The vented 8" subwoofer also houses the system's Class D amplification with overcurrent, short circuit and thermal protection, LD Systems' proprietary LECC digital processing and a 4-channel mixer. Featuring Bluetooth technology for wireless streaming and microphone, line level and hi-Z inputs (which can be used simultaneously) lets the MAUI 5 connect a wide variety of sources including music players and instruments such as keyboards or guitars. Individual level controls, subwoofer and master volumes plus high shelf filtering for room correction enable a perfectly balanced performance.

It does not sound perfect for Sound engineer, the mid seems have some lost between 400hz to 950hz, however for normal people, they will think it sounds good because it takes away some of the hash mid sound.
