Column Array Speakers

The TeachLogic® SP-5000 Column Array Speaker is designed to distribute the teacher’s voice clearly and evenly across the classroom, helping students hear and understand instruction whether they sit in the front, middle, or back of the room.

Its column array design combines four 2.5-inch drivers with a 120° horizontal and controlled 20° vertical dispersion pattern. This wide horizontal coverage helps reach students across the classroom, while controlled vertical dispersion focuses sound into the listening area rather than toward ceilings and floors, where reflections can interfere with speech clarity.

Supplied as a matched two-speaker pair, the SP-5000 provides schools with an efficient approach to classroom sound coverage—helping create a more consistent listening experience throughout the learning space.

Column Array Speakers Description

Clear Classroom Audio—From the Front Row to the Back

The TeachLogic® SP-5000 Column Array Speakers distribute the teacher’s amplified voice more evenly throughout the classroom, helping students hear clear, intelligible instruction from more locations in the learning space.

The SP-5000 uses four vertically arranged 2.5-inch drivers to create wide 120° horizontal coverage with controlled 20° vertical dispersion. This design directs sound across the student listening area while limiting sound toward ceilings and floors, where reflections can interfere with speech clarity.

Supplied as a matched pair, the SP-5000 gives schools an efficient way to create consistent classroom sound coverage with two strategically positioned speakers.

Features

Why Column Array Speakers for Classrooms?Classrooms can be challenging listening environments. Distance from the teacher, room acoustics and competing noise can all make speech more difficult to understand. The SP-5000 is designed specifically to help address those challenges by delivering the teacher’s amplified voice evenly across the student listening area.Key Benefits
  • More Consistent Sound Across the ClassroomA wide 120° horizontal dispersion pattern distributes sound across the student listening area, helping provide more consistent access to instruction from one side of the classroom to the other.
  • Clearer, More Intelligible SpeechControlled 20° vertical dispersion focuses sound toward the listening area and limits sound directed toward ceilings and floors, helping reduce reflections that can interfere with speech clarity.
  • Purpose-Built for Teacher VoiceFour vertically arranged 2.5-inch drivers create the controlled coverage pattern needed to distribute amplified speech clearly throughout the classroom.
  • Efficient Two-Speaker CoverageThe SP-5000 is supplied as a matched pair, providing wide classroom coverage

FAQ:
  • What is a column array speaker?A column array speaker uses multiple vertically arranged drivers to control how sound is distributed through a room. In a classroom, this helps direct more sound toward students and less toward ceilings and floors, supporting clearer and more consistent speech coverage.
  • Why are column array speakers a good choice for classrooms?Column array speakers can provide more even sound distribution across the student listening area. This helps reduce differences in what students hear based on where they sit and can improve the clarity of teacher instruction throughout the classroom.
  • How does the SP-5000 improve speech intelligibility?The SP-5000 uses controlled vertical dispersion and wide horizontal coverage to focus sound toward students while limiting sound directed at reflective surfaces. This helps reduce unwanted reflections that can make speech more difficult to understand.
  • How many SP-5000 speakers are used in a classroom?The SP-5000 is supplied as a matched pair of two column array speakers. With 120° horizontal dispersion, the pair is designed to provide broad, consistent coverage across the classroom. Speaker placement should be determined based on room size, layout, and acoustic conditions.
  • Will students hear the teacher more consistently throughout the classroom?That is one of the primary benefits of the SP-5000. Its coverage pattern is designed to distribute amplified speech more evenly across the classroom, helping students hear instruction consistently from the front of the room to the back.
  • Does a column array speaker make the classroom louder?The goal is not simply to make the classroom louder. The SP-5000 is designed to distribute the teacher’s voice more effectively so students can hear clear, intelligible speech at appropriate listening levels throughout the room.
  • What is the coverage pattern of the SP-5000 classroom speaker?The TeachLogic SP-5000 has a 120° horizontal and 20° vertical dispersion pattern. The wide horizontal coverage helps distribute the teacher’s voice across the classroom, while the controlled vertical coverage focuses sound toward students and limits sound directed toward ceilings and floors.
