Preparing for a Successful Audio Installation
Tips for avoiding common audio problems:
n
Place microphones closer to the people talking than to the room's speakers. This helps maintain
quality echo cancellation.
n
To prevent audio feedback, install microphones at least 4 ft. (1.2 m) from speakers. More separation
is better.
