Soundfield Systems
What is a soundfield system?
Classroom soundfield voice amplification system amplifies relevant speech in a room (such as the voice of a teacher in aclassroom) in order to improve clarity and reduce the impact of background noise and distractions for listeners. Given these points, we designed a classroom soundfield voice amplification system.
Generally, soundfield systems usually consist of 1 or 2 transmitters (or microphones) and a receiver (or speaker). Utilizing either FM or digital technology, the transmitters pick up
sound and send the sound to the receiver, which amplifies the voice or other desired sound.
“I got an offer to try out Simeon’s FM systems. Cue the heavenly chorus. I put one mic near my audiometer speakers and now could project the sound of the tests and of children in the sound booth as far as I liked. That mic was strong enough that I wouldn’t have to raise my voice or come out from behind my plexiglass barrier to be heard. I ended up using the Sprek.”

Who can benefit?
For example, classroom soundfield systems help individuals with hearing loss, but they also improve listening for everyone. Soundfields enable all listeners to hear and understand more content and allow individuals at the back of the room to hear just as clearly as those at the front. Additionally, soundfields can enhance children’s attention spans while learning by reducing common distractions when the audio of a lesson is clear. This makes soundfields especially beneficial for children with learning disabilities and those who struggle academically.
Moreover, Simeon Canada audio devices not only enhance the listening experience but also improve the experience of the speaker or presenter. Teachers who work in classrooms with soundfields report a significant decrease in vocal strain and fatigue, leading to fewer absences. As a result, teaching becomes much easier for educators, allowing them to focus on delivering quality content while moving freely around the classroom. In conclusion, instructors are finding Simeon Audita II classroom soundfield voice amplification systems to be a valuable addition to their learning environments.

Meet the future of soundfield technology
Audita highlights
Audita is Simeon’s flagship classroom soundfield voice amplification system. As shown below, it is leagues ahead of our older models and competitors in the following categories:
Convenience
Firstly, with a pendant transmitter, hands-free transmission is a breeze, while a pass-around microphone can facilitate classroom discussion. Dropping the transmitters in their charging cradle (new & improved with Audita II) and plugging in the receiver couldn’t make for an easier daily charging routine.
Superior Sound Quality
Secondly, Audita delivers crystal clear sound throughout the environment, and its voice priority function ensures that listeners hear what is most important.
Portability
By comparison, our wireless speaker unit weighs only 5.5 lbs which is 50% lighter than competitor systems. This makes it easy to get Audita where it needs to go. Coupled with its small size and optional tote bag, transporting the system is a snap.
Sleek Design
Equally important to note is Audita’s unobtrusive design allows for it to subtly blend into its environment.
No Patching
To demonstrate versatility, Simeon Audita transmits directly to our remote microphone system Ranger. In particular, this means no more patching for remote microphones or personal FM systems!
Ease of Use
Most important to note is the system is remarkably easy to use – simply turn on the transmitters and receiver, and away you go! Not to mention, simple adjustments such as volume or channel changes are also incredibly straightforward, and 96 FM channels mean there is no need to fear interference. Of course, more detailed settings adjustments are simple with Audita II’s new touchscreen interface.
Audita features
Not to mention, Audita features a lightweight wireless portable receiver with a dual-receiver module available in digital or FM formats; a pendant transmitter with an optional boom microphone accessory; an ergonomic and roll-resistant handheld transmitter; and a convenient charging cradle (Audita II includes a touchscreen interface for settings on the receiver and an improved charging cradle). Of course, power adapters and rechargeable batteries are included. Lastly, patch in sound from external devices such as laptops, cell phones, and smart boards on the side panel of the receiver. Given these points, Simeon Audita’s classroom soundfield voice amplification system will provide hearing assistance to listeners.
Customizable packages
With Audita, you can choose between two different wireless transmission formats: convenient digital transmission or broadcast-quality FM. You can also opt for an Audita / Omnipanel combo to augment Audita for large spaces. All Auditas come in set packages (though certain components may be substituted). Call us to see what options are available in your region.
Great warranty options
At this instant, all of the Audita’s come with a 5-year limited warranty, and this warranty can be upgraded in some regions. Call for more information.
Convenient accessories
Ask about accessories such as the tote bag, which can organize and carry the entire system. Also, consider a convenient stand or wall-mounting bracket for the receiver.
