Business case

There is a strong business case for using invisible sound devices rather than conventional loudspeakers. The business case depends on the application but there are a number of elements to it.

Reduced installation time and cost

Energy saving devices, using 25% of the power

Invisible sound devices can be installed in between 20 and 40% of the time taken to install conventional loudspeakers so there is a substantial labour saving and time-to-complete is shortened.

Put another way, a sound installation contractor can undertake three times
as many jobs with the same staffing level.

Fewer devices

Generally fewer invisible sound devices are required in large areas such as
hotels, stores, restaurants and offices compared to traditional speakers.

This is one reason why the installation costs are lower but the devices are also
simpler and therefore an overall lower cost than many loudspeaker systems.

Energy Saving

Very substantial energy savings can be made because the power usage is typically 75% less than that of conventional loudspeakers. Over 5 years these cost savings are significant.

Organisations are increasingly energy-conscious and keen to demonstrate that they are adopting eco-friendly policies.
The devices are re-cyclable.

Better Sound Quality

Many environments such as stations and shopping centres have a lot of acoustic interference with the result that conventional loudspeaker systems lose clarity and there are areas of poor acoustic reception. Because the propagating surface is much larger, invisible sound devices produce a clearer sound and are rapidly becoming the preferred solution in these situations.

Special situations

There are several situations where conventional loudspeakers simply cannot be
used – e.g. to turn a window into a speaker.
