Broadcast headsets
Beyerdynamic
DT 790 and DT 797: The basis of these new headsets is the DT 770 PRO with the addition of a pivoting gooseneck microphone boom, and one of two microphone capsules. Both models have been built to thrive in highly noisy environments. The DT 790, with dynamic microphone (hypercardioid), is specially designed with sound engineers in mind, while the DT 797, with condenser microphone (cardioid), has been developed for use by commentators in live broadcasting situations. The powerful headphone-systems feature a frequency response of 5Hz to 30kHz, providing an exceptionally balanced sound characteristic. The sound insulating housing and soft-skin ear pads provide isolation from ambient noise and the microphone boom makes sure the dynamic microphone can always be optimally adjusted into any required position. The microphone boom can be used at left or right side or can be moved into standby (upper) position. The single-sided cable will be available with a wide variety connectors to accommodate any application.

LED lamps
Ledtronics
3D A19-style LED bulbs: The 3D A19-style LED bulbs offer vivid, colorful lighting in many versatile applications. The series comes in a UV-protective, plastic A19-shape globe covering that allows the LED light to shine in multiple directions (three dimensions) while still being protected from the environment. These hardy bulbs are perfect in any situation that allows for standard 26mm Edison screw base 120Vac attachments. These A19 incandescent replacement LED bulbs combine today's advanced Indium Gallium Aluminum Phosphide and Silicon Carbide/Gallium Nitride LED technology, standard electrical bases and a design that maximizes illumination. They have a power draw of just 3.6W to 4.32W, up to 11-year LED operating life and seven sunlight-visible LED light colors from which to select.

Surround mixing console
Klotz Digital
Decennium 5.1: Klotz Digital has streamlined the Decennium to fulfill the requirements for a wide range of surround 5.1 applications, making it a valuable tool for radio surround productions. Moreover, the console was also redesigned for easy operation of surround sound in live broadcasts. Surround, stereo, and mono sources can be mixed and processed together. Depending on the current requirements, 5.1 surround sources can be assigned either as single audio channels on separate faders, or as a combined 6-channel-block to any single fader, allowing easy cross fades. It is fitted with a central DSP and control section, programmable function keys, and master fader. An LCD screen is integrated to display audio level meters, all important console functions and parameters. Additionally, a totally new fader module with motorized faders has been developed, offering a couple of new functions such as virtual multi layers, source related signal indicators, and improved access to buses.
