How to choose conference microphones for your meeting

Begin with the meeting format

A boardroom where everyone speaks in turn usually benefits from a dedicated table microphone at each speaking seat. A presentation-style seminar may need a different arrangement. Count the people who will speak, not just attendees.

Match the system to the room layout

U-shaped rooms and long boardroom tables create different cable paths. If the furniture layout changes frequently, an infrared wireless system may be useful; a fixed room often suits a wired discussion system.

Compare equipment families

BOSCH CCS 900 and CCS 800 are wired discussion options. BOSCH CCS 1000 D, TOA TS-D1000 and SHURE/DIS DC 6190 P belong to digital conference families; confirm required controller and cabling. TOA TS-800 uses infrared wireless communication, while TS-772 is a delegate unit in the TS-770 wired family.

What to send when requesting a quote

Share the date, venue, speaking seats, table arrangement and whether you need delivery, installation or on-site support. A room photo or seating sketch helps.

Check before confirming

Confirm the exact kit, availability, required power, setup schedule, any additional service charges, and change or cancellation terms.
