NEW SHURE MXA910 VARIANT

We are pleased to announce a new variant of the MXA910 Ceiling Array Microphone which we are confident is compliant for use in drop ceiling mounting configurations.

This new SKU has been designed specifically to address the recent preliminary injunction impacting drop ceiling flush-mounting of previous versions of MXA910s (see FAQs for details).

NEW SKU & AVAILABILITY

The new 24” model has an added flange that allows installation in drop ceilings, with a slightly 'proud' design that positions all of the microphone elements of the MXA910 below the drop ceiling plane (i.e. not flush), and will be available in white only. The SKU is MXA910W-A.

The MXA910W-A will be available in the U.S. only and will start to ship in December 2019. We are now accepting pre-orders for this new SKU. Please contact sales@audiobiz.com to order.
