Infiniti Red Bull Racing, one of the first customers to try out the LSP 500 PRO, found the speed of set up and ease of use of the wireless PA system to be striking. The team deployed two speakers for the pre-race press conference, both connected seamlessly via wireless links. Commenting on the performance of the solution, Alan Peasland, head of technical partnerships at Infiniti Red Bull Racing, said: "Every facet of Formula One is fast-paced and communication is no exception, the efficiency of the LSP 500 PRO has allowed us to seamlessly broadcast Sebastian's press conference to the attending media."
The LSP 500 PRO ensures that the PA system for any event can be installed in next to no time, eliminating the need for laying cables, while providing a robust solution capable of delivering Sennheiser's usual excellent sound quality. Impressed by the trial, Infiniti Red Bull Racing plan to use the LSP 500 PRO for the rest of the Grand Prix season.
As well as offering versatility, the LSP 500 PRO is ready to take on any challenge with hot-swappable dual rechargeable batteries, allowing an individual battery to be charged while the other powers the sound, extending the seven hours of usable time for as long as demanded. "The entire PA system can also be controlled via app, which essentially takes over the functions of a mixing console," explained Martin Gurtner, portfolio manager at Sennheiser's Integrated Systems Division. "No matter whether it is the volume, the equalizer or the delay - the Sennheiser app makes it easy to control all of the audio settings."
