Forum™ Receiver Amplifier Description

The TeachLogic Forum™ instructional audio system provides the classroom with a platform to clearly deliver all audio sources so that learning happens regardless of where the students are located.  This versatile system supports 2 infrared wireless microphones, 3 classroom audio sources like a computer or TV, and 2 audio outputs for assistive listening system connection, lesson capture recording, and/or video conferencing to support hybrid learning models.

In addition to these must-have features, the internal architecture of the Forum™ includes a Digital Feedback Guard (DFG) to suppress unwanted noise, a Computer Anti-Hum Circuit to eliminate those pesky low level humming sounds computers can make, and a USB charger for correct placement of and access to the microphone charger.

A 4th audio source can be added by using the IRT-66 Mobile Display Transmitter. Now you can easily roll in a portable audiovisual cart to any classroom and instantly connect to the Forum’s speakers. No additional wires needed.

Forum™ Receiver Amplifier Frequently Asked Questions

  • add_circleremove_circle_outlineCan I use 1 system for 2 rooms, but turn off the speakers in the second room when they don't need to be used?

    Sometimes a single system is used to support two rooms. However, at times it may be desirable that the speakers in the second room are switched off so the sound does not play in that room. The best way to accomplish this would be with a 3rd party speaker switch such as the one seen here. It is wired inline between the TeachLogic amplifier and the speakers.

    1. Plan for the switch location, and measure the length of wire needed to ensure this device is within reach of the user.
    2. Connect the TeachLogic amplifier speaker channel that you wish to turn off to the “amp input” connection on this device.
    3. Then connect the speakers you wish to control to the “speaker output” connections on this device.
    4. Test.
