Stage Sound Services stocks up with 50 channels of Trantec

Stage Sound Services, Wales’ leading supplier of pro-audio equipment and long term Trantec user, has recently undergone a major restock of its wireless mic inventory. Their rapid growth has resulted in an order comprising 50 channels of Trantec S5.5, increasing their current stock to over 100 channels of Trantec UHF wireless.

Discussing the purchase, Stage Sound’s managing director Phil Hurley said, “We have been using Trantec right from the start and it is a testament to their reliability that systems we bought over 10 years ago are still in use today. We constantly strive to supply the best for our corporate and theatre work, which means using the best audio equipment available. For us, that meant Trantec for quality, reliability, and especially value for money."

Aiming primarily at the corporate and theatre markets, Stage Sound realized they would have to increase their stock levels to keep up with demand. The first outing for the new S5.5 was for Orbit Theatre’s production of ‘Me and My Girl’ at the New Theatre in Cardiff, and further systems have now been booked across various UK venues.

Phil Hurley continues, "We are only too aware of the knocks and bangs that equipment suffers on the road and we have always found the Trantec gear capable of handling everything you can throw at it.”

The S5.5 system is capable of simultaneously operating up to 24 channels in ten banks within its 35MHz window (830-865MHz). Fully interactive PC monitoring via a USB port is also an option enabling frequency download function, RF and AF monitoring, and transmitter battery status.

Widely used throughout theatre and broadcast, the S5.5 benefits from high quality, true-diversity operation utilizing credit card size beltpacks, frequency autoscan, in-built Infra-red data link, single AA battery life of over 10 hours, intuitive LCD displays, and robust metal enclosures for both transmitter and receiver.

Trantec’s Head of Sales & Marketing, Mark Parkhouse says, "Trantec now has wireless systems for every level of user and all priced accordingly. The S5.5 system is undeniably a popular choice that provides top features, a reliable performance, and a price point that cannot be matched by any other manufacturer. Stage Sound Services’ loyalty to Trantec systems has always been reassuring and we wish them many more years of continued satisfaction with our products.”
