    Audio Spotlight systems are used by the world's top museums to provide localized sound for those who wish to hear it, and quiet for everyone else. The Perkins School for the blind, where the remarkable Helen Keller was educated, wanted to ensure that exhibit sound stayed at the exhibit. Audio Spotlight discs are mounted overhead, aimed directly at the guests in front of each display. Those standing under a disc hear the sound, while elsewhere in the very same room, background noise is but a whisper.

    Museums

    and Galleries
    .. Provide sound, and preserve the quiet.
    .. Introduce sound to new environments.

    A serene, quiet gallery lends an air of sophistication and


    comfort, allowing your guests to more fully experience
    and enjoy their visit. Chatter from loudspeakers can
    distract and disturb your guests, threatening the
    peaceful environment you strive to provide.

    Audio Spotlight systems are used by the world’s top


    museums to provide localized sound for those who wish
    o hear it, and quiet for everyone else. Schirn Kunsthalle
    top left), built a new gallery to present selections from
    Matisse and Picasso. They wanted sound, but couldn’t
    olerate noise, so Audio Spotlight discs were mounted
    overhead, aimed directly at the guests in front of each
    display. Those who want the sound receive it, while the
    overall environment remained very quiet.

    The Perkins School for the Blind, where the remarkable


    Helen Keller was educated, built a museum in the very
    center of the school. Because it is located near
    classrooms – and because of their students’ sensitivity to
    audible distractions – they wanted to ensure that exhibit
    sound stayed at the exhibit. Audio Spotlight systems
    were installed at each display to provide high quality
    sound for those viewing the exhibits – and no one else.

    The Chicago Cultural Center installed a popular


    multimedia exhibit (bottom), but adjacent gallery spaces
    couldn’t tolerate the noise from its many loudspeakers.
    Eight Audio Spotlight discs replaced those loudspeakers
    to provide eight local, discrete zones of sound, each
    corresponding to a nearby projected video. Those
    standing under a disc hear the sound, while elsewhere in
    the very same room, background noise is but a whisper.
