A.C. Audio sales executive Glen Thompson, who oversaw the equipment supply commented: "Over the last year or two, Imperial College Union have been gradually updating their sound technology to meet with the growing demand from the drama productions and live band nights held at the venue. Already having experience with Opus wireless technology, the Union was keen to purchase three NE900Q UHF quad receivers due to their 1U rack size and known reliability and durability."
Thompson continued: "Rack space can be a huge issue for many sound directors in this modern age, so the NE900Q is a superb solution that has no limiting or negative effects on the sound quality. The union will also have the option of running any brand of microphone with the Opus belt packs allowing ultimate flexibility and a "mix & match" option for every different production & performer."
Along with the rack receivers, a dozen handheld and belt pack transmitters were also purchased together with Sennheiser HSP4 head-worn microphones, adding to their growing equipment list which includes Yamaha and Soundcraft consoles, QSC PLX Series amplifiers and DBX and Tascam signal processing.
