"Sound is often the last thing people think about when they are planning a conference, but if you can't hear what delegates are saying the whole event becomes pointless," says DPA product manager, René M°rch.
"Microphones are the first link in the audio chain, so it makes sense to introduce the highest possible quality at that point. DPA is renowned for developing and manufacturing neutral and accurate microphones that can reproduce sound to the smallest detail, even in the most difficult surroundings. We have a wide range of useful solutions available for this market - and if visual impact is what matters to you, we can guarantee that they look as good as they sound."
Sleek Scandinavian design is certainly visible in DPA's newest installation product - the aesthetically pleasing Microphone Base. On show for the first time and designed for use with the d:screet SC4098 Podium Microphone, the Microphone Base can be placed on a table or podium, or attached to the ceiling or even the wall.
The d:screet capsule is mounted on a sleek boom and has a gooseneck at the top and the bottom for the tabletop version, thus allowing users to position the mic exactly where they want it. The ceiling version consists of a one-piece gooseneck. In both versions, the cable can exit to the side of, or beneath, the unit.
