What is the best speaker for a conference room in Athens?

Conference rooms prioritise speech intelligibility, even coverage and seamless integration with video conferencing. Ceiling loudspeakers such as the SSOUNDS CL6 and CL8 provide discreet, uniform coverage for low ceilings and distributed systems. For rooms with higher ceilings or where ceiling installation is impractical, slim column loudspeakers like the LC8.2 and LC16.2 deliver controlled vertical dispersion, keeping sound on the audience and reducing reverberation. Where higher SPL or music playback is needed, SSOUNDS point-source boxes from the M series or install loudspeakers from the P series (P4, P5, P6T, P10T, P12T) offer robust solutions. T models operate on 70/100 V lines for long cable runs.

Selection and sizing depend on room dimensions, seating layout, ceiling height and acoustic treatment. For a typical small to medium conference room (up to 50 square metres), four to six ceiling loudspeakers on a 100 V line, powered by an SSOUNDS A series networked amplifier with DSP, will provide even coverage. Larger rooms or those with high ceilings may benefit from column loudspeakers mounted on the front wall, or a combination of ceiling and column units. Beamforming microphones and DSP with echo cancellation should be integrated to ensure clear pickup and reproduction. SSOUNDS engineers use AI-assisted acoustic modelling to predict coverage and optimise loudspeaker placement before installation.

SSOUNDS designs and installs across Athens, supported by our offices in the United Kingdom, United States, Nigeria, Ghana and West Africa. We work with system integrators, consultants and venue technical directors to specify the right solution for each space. For a conference room, we recommend a site survey to assess acoustics and requirements, followed by a tailored design using our install range. Our A series amplifiers with Dante and DSP provide networked audio and processing, ensuring seamless integration with existing AV systems.
