The popular RTS earsets are precisely designed for inconspicuous listening
while on camera. Used by nearly all major television networks and stations, we
have surpassed industry standards. The extremely efficient miniature driver
element requires only nominal operating power and enables the announcer to
hear program cues while working with a live microphone. The units are also
suitable for many other applications such as live theater script prompting.
Typical Set-Up
To provide optimum versatility, the announcer’s earset is made up of interchangeable
components that simply snap together. Users can construct a version of the announcer’s
earset that best suits their particular needs. Some popular combinations are available as a
standard configuration; these are listed below.
