Ask us about our perminent installation speaker system for aiding PE teachers in the gymnasium. We have a system that can be perminently installed and is ball proof, that will allow a PE teacher to teach with the aid of a headset microphone. No more losing your voice from shouting! Yeah!

Here is a photo of a speaker perminently mounted behind a ball proof cage on a gymnasium wall. My wife teaches PE and uses this system every day. Now she can talk in a normal voice and all the kids can here her clearly. We hang from each basket after we install them to make sure they will never come down. We install the mixer in a closet, so it can be out of the way. We have installed several of these systems. All our customers have been extremely satisfied with the results.

Samson Wireless headset microphone used for a teaching aide. Battery pack is mounted on headset so you don't have to worry about any dangeling wires while you are moving around. The Airline headset transmitters feature the Samson Qe Fitness and Qv Vocal microphone elements. The Qe and Qv headset was designed to go around the back head rather then over the top. This allows the transmitter to be attached directly to the headband, out of the way and completely unobtrusive, while being comfortable and secure during performances or exercise routines.

Portable PA Systems

This is the Peavey Messenger Portable PA System $399.99

The Peavey Messenger(R) is a complete, portable sound system designed with the compact size and carry-on convenience of a briefcase. At 24" wide, the Messenger is portable enough for business travelers, and since it is completely self contained and sets up in seconds, it's perhaps the one thing you can rely on during those long trips. The Messenger's robust five-channel mixer and 100 Watt output make it ideal for an endless array of applications, from office presentations and meetings to karaoke and open-mic performances. Its top lid also functions as a lecturn to hold your meeting notes or song lyrics. More Specifications

This is called the Peavey "Escort" Portable PA system. $649.99

This is it! The world's finest packaged portable PA system, all self-contained in a molded case with wheels and handle that you can transport like a piece of carry-on luggage. When you reach your destination, open up the case, and you have two speakers, complete with connecting cables & speaker stands and a microphone with cable. The five channel powered mixer offers 75 watts per channel and Peavey's exclusive DDT(TM) to prevent clipping. There are 4 XLR microphone inputs with 15 volt phantom power and 2 stereo line level inputs (each with its own bass, treble and reverb controls). Main input and output controls use 60 mm linear faders. There is also a 5-band graphic EQ, digital reverb and a FLS(R) Feedback Locating System. The Escort's case also has room for additional microphones and cables. So here it is, everything in one package that will allow you to use up to 4 microphones and two stereo line level sources (i.e. audio from your computer, VCR, DVD player, tape recorder, etc.). It will all sound great through the two impressive 2-way speakers with 10 inch woofers and piezoelectric horn tweeters. Go to your pro audio dealer and get a Peavey Escort system for your next presentation. You'll be glad you did. More Specifications
