voice and program material are distributed at a consistent level to each student. A sound field is created by a classroom sound system specifically designed to slightly amplify the teacher’s voice using speakers strategically placed throughout the room. The key to success
Volume adjustments give teachers total control
is not simply amplification, but increased intelligibility. To achieve this goal, effective sound field systems must accomplish the following:
Amplify the teacher’s voice slightly above classroom background noise
Instant Alert email messaging capability for requesting assistance
Distribute sound evenly throughout the entire classroom by using multiple speakers
Provide superior audio performance in frequencies associated with the human voice
