July 6, 2009—Epson, a leading project brand, has introduced the Epson AP-60 Sound Enhancement System, a first of its kind, complete and fully-integrated K-12 classroom sound solution designed to engage students in active learning.
The Epson AP-60 is a revolutionary speaker system created exclusively for the classroom that delivers 360 degrees of sound, and includes everything necessary for a new or retrofit installation with a ceiling mounted projector. The system includes a high-quality infrared pendant microphone for teachers and students that enhances vocal clarity and intelligibility, says the company. It can also amplify from numerous classroom audio sources.
Contrary to some competitive systems that require separate installations of four individual speakers, the Epson AP-60 installs in one place and is compatible with virtually any projector mounted on a ceiling using standard 1.5″ projector mounting equipment. This makes the Epson AP-60 an easy to install option for schools planning to retrofit classrooms with a sound enhancement system. In addition, it includes a remote control that will also control key functions of Epson projectors in the classroom.
The Epson AP-60 Sound Enhancement System is a part of the Brighter Futures program, a sales and support initiative specifically for schools. For more information, see the Epson Web site.
