Loudspeakers - speakers for voice & music

Loudspeakers - speakers for voice & music

We distribute audio loudspeakers for most commercial, professional and industrial applications from leading manufacturers such as CES Audio, Bosch, Apart, Electrovoice (EV), RCF, TOA and Wharfedale.

Loudspeakers are available in many shapes and sizes, from a simple indoor ceiling mounted speaker for background music and public address, or column speakers for a church to powerful outdoor horn speakers for addressing crowds. IP rated, weatherproof and waterproof options are available in many cases in addition to fire rated speakers compliant with BS5839 part 8. Low impedance speakers for small installations are complimented by a range of 100 volt line units for large installations where long cable runs are required.

In fact, wherever distributed sound & public address is required, we should have a speaker to suit.

Ceiling Speakers - Flush / Surface Mounted

Flush mounted ceiling loudspeakers are often fitted into the tiles of a suspended ceiling to play background music but they can also be used for paging & announcements.

Circular, square and rectangular ceiling speakers are available for simple paging and announcements along with high performance models for music.

Where the ceiling is fixed / solid, surface mounted ceiling speakers can be used.

Cleanroom & Bathroom Speakers - IP Rated & Water Resistant

These speakers also comply with BS5839 part 8, for use in voice alarm systems for fire & emergency evacuation announcements.

Column Speakers - Ideal for Sound Reinforcement in a Church

Multiple speaker cones are used to create slimline column loudspeakers.

Typically seen in church, they give excellent vertical sound dispersion but coverage is limited horizontally.

For this reason, several column loudspeakers can be mounted in a cluster or around pillars.

Pendant Speakers - Wide Sound Dispersion for High Ceilings

Pendant Speakers - Wide Sound Dispersion for High Ceilings

Typically used in DIY sheds and warehouses, suspension loudspeakers (pendant speakers) are hung from high ceilings & give wide sound dispersion.

Hearing Loops & Systems for the 'Hearing Impaired'

Hearing Loops & Systems for the 'Hearing Impaired'

To comply with the disability discrimination act (DDA) 2004, all service providers in contact with the general public must provide assistive hearing equipment (such as hearing loops) at the point of contact.

We supply assisted hearing products to aid the partially deaf and ‘hard of hearing’ in both public and domestic premises. Products include a variety of induction loop systems for hearing aid users.

Additionally, infra-red audio systems allow discreet transmission of sound in courtrooms, lecture theatres & interview rooms where it is important to ensure exclusive reception in one ‘room’.
 

Induction Loop Assisted Hearing Systems

There is a wide range of audio frequency induction loop equipment which complies with the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) 2004.

Portable, battery powered loop systems are easy to move from one place to another. Fixed position counter loops are perfect for reception desks and ticket booths whilst larger, rack mounted or free standing loop amps are available to provide cover in large spaces such as in a church or auditorium.

Low overspill induction loop amplifiers can be used to maintain privacy when separate systems are required in adjacent rooms.

These all enable hard of hearing people to hear and communicate more clearly, simply by switching their hearing aids to the 'T' position. (Modern digital hearing aids switch automatically).
 

Portable, Battery Powered Induction Loop System - Ready to Use in Seconds

Portable, Battery Powered Induction Loop System - Ready to Use in Seconds

Ideal for temporary use in banks and meeting rooms, the Signet PL1/K1 portable induction loop system is fully rechargeable and provides a 1 metre operating range – perfect for across a desk or counter.

Freestanding and lightweight, it can be moved easily to where it is needed.

Hearing Loops for Domestic Use

 

In addition to the range of hearing loops for commercial and public premises, the freestanding induction loop model – DL50K - is perfect for domestic use to help the ‘hard of hearing’ listen to the television more easily and clearly without disturbing other family members or neighbours.
 

Infra-Red Assistive Hearing Systems for Discreet Sound Transmission

Infra-Red Assistive Hearing Systems for Discreet Sound Transmission

Where privacy is paramount, such as in a court room, an induction loop system would be unsuitable.

In these circumstances, an infra-red hearing system is more appropriate. As the hard of hearing person needs to be in 'line of sight' of the transmitter, infra-red systems offer more privacy and security, as there can be no 'overspill' into adjacent rooms / areas.

Infra-red sound transmission can also be used as a tour guide system due to its directional nature.

We are please to offer the superb Sennheiser infra-red equipment.
 

Disabled Refuge/Emergency Voice Communication (EVC)

Current Building Regulations recognise that emergency evacuation for wheelchair users is difficult and now insist all new non-domestic buildings with more than one storey provide ‘refuge’ areas - relatively safe places where people who cannot easily use fire escapes and evacuation lifts can call for assistance and wait until help arrives.

Simple, effective two-way communication is essential, firstly to assist rescue teams in determining where assistance is required and secondly to reassure people help is on the way.

These systems can also be used for fire telephone or stadium marshalling purposes as specified in BS5839 part 9.

Wireless Headphones - Freedom from wires using cordless headphones

Wireless Headphones - Freedom from wires using cordless headphones

The Sennheiser range of cordless headphones is ideal for listening to the TV or music without disturbing others.

They transmit the sound using radio frequency (RF) so, unlike infra-red headphones, they do not have to be in line of sight of the transmitter, or even in the same room.

RF wireless / cordless headphones even enable you to listen to your music at the bottom of the garden with just the transmitter connected to your Hi-Fi system indoors.

SoundField Classroom Voice Reinforcement System for Schools and Colleges

Lively / noisy school classrooms, or high ambient noise from equipment or outside can make it difficult for a teacher to be heard clearly.

A SoundField System in the classroom will raise the volume of the teacher's voice above this ambient noise level, to give even voice coverage throughout the room and without the need to shout!

A basic SoundField Voice Reinforcement System consists of a wireless microphone and receiver, an amplifier, loudspeakers and connection cables, however, due to the many differing conditions in classrooms, a bespoke system can be designed and specified to give the best results.

Microphones

Microphones

Microphones are a vital component of most public address systems, from a simple ‘press to talk’ paging mic through to more sophisticated call stations with individual zone selection. Microphones for use on stage provide the greatest area of diversity though! Simple hand held mics offer a wide range of frequency responses from a basic model suitable for speech through to high performance models for more demanding vocals. Specialist instrument mics are also available with appropriate mounting brackets.

The range of wireless radio microphones is massive. Simple VHF models offer excellent value for money for small venues, but the UHF frequencies offer greater flexibility and multi-channel options. Many microphone frequencies require a licence, and licensing requirements are undergoing huge changes at the moment – please call us for advice about this.

BOSCH

We are main dealers for the Bosch professional audio products, including highly versatile conferencing systems, public address amplifiers and full range of great value speakers.

We also stock products from other leading audio manufacturers including Sennheiser, Electrovoice, Audio Technica, TOA, RCF, Denon, Cloud and Wharfedale
