Sportsound 500HD Sound System
The Sportsound 500HD is a complete sound system designed to provide high-impact sound reinforcement for a variety of outdoor facilities, including football, lacrosse, soccer, softball and track. The system is installed in a permanent position and provides full range sound and even coverage at levels capable of overcoming crowd noise.
The 500HD is designed for smaller sport venues; it is easy to set up and to operate. The new Announcer’s Console provides a simplified interface to the sound system, which offers one MP3 player and two microphone inputs.
Benefits
Improved driver protection, low distortion, low latency, higher damping factor, high precision components and a broad, smooth coverage of the entire football playing field are the hallmarks of the Sportsound 500HD sound system. Improved 20 bit/48K digital signal processing is available to individually tune each speaker. Signal transfer is accomplished digitally via Ethernet and network connections allow for local (and future remote) management and diagnostics for the system. The Sportsound 500HD sound system also features global power, making it ready to work anywhere in the world.
