Are there any LED options that would so the same as what is being suggested? Looking at the area again the lights would mount 3 meters away from the lectern at a height of 4 meters

Thanks for the suggestions. Also found this one from AKG

Hi

We have no experience with lighting so would appreciate some advice please.

We have a scenario where someone stands at a lectern and delivers a presentation( no PowerPoint etc with it). When streaming this the lighting is poor especially on the face. We have space to mount some lighting about 5 meters in front of the lectern at a height of about 3 meters.

What sort of lighting should we purchase? We want something that will just improve the general lighting level of where the standing person without having to adjust for different height people. The lighting should not be so bright that it blinds them so some sort of brightness level adjustment would be good.

Hi

We regularly use the Samson CM20P microphone attached to an XLR base but have been told it has been discontinued.

Does anyone have some suggestion for a 20" similar microphone that we can attach to an XLR base?

If I get a chance on Monday I'll test my phone with the Interspace USB BalBox at work - it's a really simple class compliant USB audio interface with 2 XLR outs, and is ideal for things like this.

If you could test that it would be great as we have used that box before as well...I'm pretty sure someone on this forum gave me the link to it after the Peavey USB device was discontinued.

Pretty sure we have a Behringer UM2 which is a USB audio interface. I think I will order the adaptor and give it a try.

Thanks for the ideas. I wonder I we could use THIS combined with THIS

The iphone is used for streaming to YouTube but the audio woul dbe much nicer if taken directly from PA system.

Hi

Is there a way to feed audio from the XLR output of a mixer to an iphone?

I've seem some standalone systems on Amazon where you you have a wireless mic linked to a usb-c reciever but we want to feed audio directly from the mixer to an iphone.

Thanks for the ideas. We have decided to do the extra work and stick to a wired link. Don't want to take a risk of problems or audio delay.

Hi All

I'm after suggestions for active PA speakers that can be linked together with bluetooth or similar wireless option.

We would need the ability to link 2-4 speakers together. I know a wired link is an option but just want to explore wireless options first.

Thanks

Don't suppose you took a picture? It would be interesting to see (to me anyway 🤨)

I did.

I haven't heard back from them but opened it up to check and it has the 100v transformer inside.

The plot thickens. IAG group/Wharfedale sent an email saying this morning saying that they think that I may have the passive version of the speakers instead of the 100/70v version. They are looking in to it further.

I think I may have mentioned that in post number 2 but this is a tricky area if you're not familiar with it.

You did but learnt some new things with the extended discussion 🙂

Just to update this the method of plugging the Rode Go transmitter in to the mixer XLR oputput an and the receiver in to the camera worked fine after adjusting the levels on the output & camera. The camera is getting nice clean audio with no cables across the floor.

Now it finally makes sense! Thanks for all the input. It seems like the speakers had the stickers on for the i4 rather than the i4T but suprised the supplier got the terminals wrong as they sell a lot of 100v equipment.

I contacted Wharfedale direct from their website and they sent me this picture which ties in with the 70v layout in the manual but not the 100v one!

using the 2KΩ setting

T1 & T2 = 1.008

T1 & T3 - just displays a 1

T1 & T4 - Just displays a 1

T2 &T4 - 0.013

Using the 200Ω setting

T1 & T2 = 1.008

T1 & T3 - just displays a 1

T1 & T4 - Just displays a 1

T2 &T4 - Just displays a 1

This is the meter

I have access to an impedance meter used for testing 100v systems. These are the reading I get with it set at 20k

T1 & T2 = 1.04k

T1 & T3 = 2.24K

T1 & T4 = 4.74K

What has confused me is that that supplier has advised that to run the speaker at 100v 25w it is T2 live & T4 common which shows 1.04K on the meter and seems to go against the manual (if I ignore the ++-- markings on the speaker)

The 4 doesn't come with the selector switch. The tap is set depending on which terminals you use.

The place I purchased it from have just said for 100v 25w T2 is live and T4 is common 😕

Hi

I just needed to sense check this please as it is the first time using this speaker.

The connection terminal labelling is different on speaker vs manual. The full manual can be viewed here.

At 100v am I right in saying that these are the correct connections if we say T1 is at the top and T4 at the bottom?

100v 25w - Live T3 & Common T1

100v 12.5w - Live T4 & Common T1

What is making me doubt this is that T1 which is common if I am right above has a + next to it on the speaker.

Black  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155665291403

I've saved that for future use...thanks.

These are the ones I purchased as I needed black and also some spares.

Perfect...thanks.

My search term wasn't specific enough.

Hi

I'm struggling to find a 200mm gooseneck to fit THIS mount.

The only one I could find was THIS one but the thread is too small to fit the mount. Is there an adaptor available to allow me to fit it to the mount?

Any suggestions please?
