Introduction

The Bogen Enhancer is an infrared wireless microphone system offering professional performance and
operating features. Infrared transmission is used to reduce room-to-room interference while sending a sig-
nal from a presenter’s microphone to a dual-channel receiver. The receiver works in tandem with an
amplifier and speaker(s) to reduce the effects of poor room acoustics and the weakening effect of voice
traveling through air.
