All about the 9000 series Assistive Listening Systems
Anchor Audio’s multipurpose assistive listening systems are designed to help hard of hearing individuals clearly hear speech, music, and other sounds. Assistive listening systems provide one-way communication that helps cut through the background noise to allow individuals to hear every word clearly and easily. For a complete wireless hearing assistance solution as may be required in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), add wireless ALS receivers to any Anchor Audio wireless AIR sound system,
or add a complete assistive listening system to any already existing sound system.
The ALB-9000 True Diversity Receiver is the corner stone in Anchor Audio's assistive listening program. Operating in the 902-928 MHz UHF band it features a range up to 500 ft line of sight when used with Anchor Audio AIR or base station transmitters and 200 ft with beltpack transmitter. Equipped with an LED display, channels can easily be set to any one of 100 available frequencies with the internal up and down buttons. A volume control and a push-button on-off switch constitute the only user operated controls. The ALB-9000 receiver is supplied with two AA alkaline batteries an dual earbuds. Lightweight headphones, model AL-HP, are also available but sold separately. Likewise, Centrum Sound is offering optional neckloops as a simple means to make receivers hearing aid compatible as is required by the ADA. No matter the preference of listening option, the ALB-9000 wireless beltpack receiver seamlessly connects to anyone of the following: Anchor Audio wireless AIR sound systems, WB-9000 beltpack transmitter, and ALT-9000 base station transmitter.
AIR Transmitters. Many Anchor Audio PA and sound systems feature built-in AIR transmitters that wirelessly connects to their companion speakers. The ALB-9000 receivers operate on the same frequencies as the AIR transmitters, thus no special equipment or setup is required. At present, compatible systems include all the models shown below. To view the individual systems configurations, click on images. Receivers are available as add-ons with new systems and existing systems alike. They can be purchased separately from any A La Carte menu. ADA compliance doesn't get any simpler than that.
The WB-9000 beltpack transmitter included with the TOUR-9000 package offers a viable solution for ADA compliance for Anchor systems not equipped with the AIR transmitter. A simple connection with the Anchor Audio 6000-14P or 6000-18PS adapter cable between the sound
system's line out to the beltpack transmitter's input connector gets the system up and running in no time.
Of course, the TOUR-9000 package includes the same high quality HBM-TA4F headset microphone used in numerous PA applications, making it an ideal system for walking tours where PA systems are not available. The TOUR-9000 system provides clear speech reception to all members in a tour group, be it indoor tours in a noisy plants or outdoor walking tours in noisy street environment.
Furthermore, the WB-9000 beltpack transmitter with the HBM-TA4F headset microphone
can serve as wireless microphone for any Anchor Audio AIR wireless companion speaker. This means that any AIR system can be split up and operate as two separate system, both of which automatically will be ADA compliant with the complete TOUR-9000 package.
ALT-9000 Base Station Transmitter. Designed as an add on to permanently installed PA and/or sound systems, the compact half rack space base station will easily fit in or on top of a rack, next to a sound board, under a lectern, or on a rolling cart. Hookup to the PA system's line feed is simple as the transmitter features two combo XLR input jacks with individual gain/volume controls located on the back panel. The default frequency is 902.00 MHz but like the ALB-9000 beltpack receiver and the WB-90000 beltpack transmitter, the frequency can easily be changed when multiple systems are to be installed in same vicinity. Should it become necessary to change the frequency, the receivers can quickly be synchronized to the new frequency via an infrared port located on front of the transmitter.
