Princes Hall's technical manager, Kevin Andrew, sought a new Channel 38 compliant wireless mic solution for the busy receiving house, and chose a Shure ULX system from AC-ET after comparing three leading brands.
The 600 capacity (seated format) Princes Hall is active for most days of the year, hosting approximately 50 professional shows and at least 40 performances of their sold-out annual pantomime, as well as numerous local community shows, dance and drama productions for schools and am-dram organisations.
The purchase from AC-ET consisted of 13 Shure ULX1 bodypack transmitters and 13 Shure diversity ULXP4 receivers, plus sixteen Shure cardiod condenser lapel mics, a set of headset mic capsules and eight Shure UR2 SM58 hand-held transmitter mics including the classic SM58 capsule. All equipment was supplied complete with distribution amps, antennas and cables.
"AC-ET turned it around very quickly and efficiently." comments Andrew, and the new Shure system means they can offer a dynamic and wide mix of kit with plenty of options to all their productions. It has been flightcased for efficient usage and storage.
