Introduction
Pan Beam products provide problem free speech and music broadcast, even in the
most difficult surroundings. Pristine sound quality in large halls without the annoying
echo are easily achieved. Pan Beam guarantees excellent speech clarity and ensures
the audience's aural health.
Pan Beam is able to accomplish high volume output in large audience areas with a
near to constant, extremely flexible and exact signal alignment. Being seated near the
source of high output signals is no longer a problem for the audience. Pan Beam
simply eradicates the usual unpleasant side effects.
This is achieved by using electronic DSP control, by means of a personal computer,
without having to physically adjust the loudspeaker system itself. All Pan Beam
products are light weight and can be installed by a qualified person in no time at all.
