Biamp has announced two pendant style models in its new desono speaker family — the P6 and P6-SM — that are ideal for retail, restaurants and casinos.

Biamp executive vice president of corporate development Joe Andrulis says the pendant style of the new speakers is the product of Biamp’s audio expertise and attention to industrial design.

“Now facilities with open ceiling designs and open floor plan environments — in retail spaces or lecture halls, and houses of worship, to name just a few — can enjoy a superior audio experience that complements and accentuates interior aesthetics,” he says.

The desono pendant series is mechanically steerable, providing a cost-efficient way to achieve optimal speaker coverage while keeping the audio where it’s needed most. Both styles of speaker include an internal 70V/100V transformer with a 16Ω bypass, giving designers fantastic flexibility.

Biamp’s offerings for larger spaces combine flexible network architecture, simplified installation features, and a unique, integrated audio and video platform to create a toolset for designers and installers alike that is easily monitored and managed with the powerful management capabilities in the SageVue device monitoring and management application.

The new desono pendant speakers will be available Q3 of 2019.
