Califone understands that the proper utilization of audio technology can assist classroom learning and student comprehension.
Acknowledged research has validated the use of enhanced sound field amplification in learning areas. The Infrared Classroom Audio System delivers all of the benefits of sound field amplification with greater audio coverage & reception with dual ceiling sensors to expand the coverage area and avoids “drop out” of the infrared signal from each mic to the sensors. Hands-free transmitter allows for several presentation styles, whichever is more comfortable for the wearer. The transmitter can be worn on a belt or around the neck with the included holder.
The Califone Infrared Classroom Audio Systems will help:
Improve academic achievement
Increase on-task behavior
Increase attention to verbal instruction
Improve comprehension for English Language Learners
Improve ease of listening and teaching
Reduce vocal strain and fatigue on teachers
Works with PC/MAC teleconferencing systems such as Microsoft® Netmeeting so the entire class can participate in distance learning applications
The benefits of the Infrared Classroom Audio System are enhanced by its use of CS308 ceiling speakers. Available with the Classroom Audio System with a choice of two or four speakers, they are engineered with a frequency response that's optimal for vocal reproduction and multimedia presentations. With their superior coverage, the CS308 speakers create whole room audio immersion.

“Through our research, we discovered that many schools who integrated this technology saw increases in their state assessments. We reviewed many systems, but ultimately chose the Infrared Audio System from Califone as it brought the most return on our investment.” Christie Valenzuela Title 1 Coordinator J.D. Lever Elementary School Aiken, South Carolina
A: Yes. The Infrared Classroom Audio System features a ¼” Line Out which outputs the audio from the entire Infrared Classroom Audio System, and can be connected to a secondary assistive listening system, additional speakers, or to a media player for recording purpose.
