What is the best speaker for a school in Leicester?

Schools need intelligible speech for young listeners, reliable paging, and simple control. In corridors and classrooms, ceiling loudspeakers on a 70/100 V line are ideal: our CL6 and CL8 ceiling models provide even coverage and tamper-resistant mounting. For assembly halls, slim column loudspeakers like the LC8.2 and LC16.2 deliver high speech intelligibility with controlled vertical dispersion, keeping sound off rear walls and ceilings. Sports halls require higher SPL and longer throw: point-source boxes from our M series, such as the P4, P5, P6T, P10T and P12T (T models run on 70/100 V lines), or M series subwoofers where music is needed.

Selection and sizing start with the room. For a typical classroom (up to 80 m²), two to four ceiling loudspeakers on a 100 V line give even coverage. Corridors need ceiling loudspeakers spaced at 6 to 8 metres for paging clarity. Assembly halls benefit from a left-right column pair, with delay speakers if the room is deep. Sports halls need point-source boxes mounted high, aimed to cover the floor without excessive reverberation. Our A series networked amplifiers with DSP and Dante provide zone control, EQ and paging, with simple wall controllers for staff.

SSOUNDS engineers use AI-assisted acoustic modelling to predict coverage and intelligibility before installation, ensuring every space meets speech clarity targets. We design and install across Leicester, with support from our UK base. For a tailored specification, contact us to discuss your school's needs.
