Please see our detailed Digital Signage Feature Matrix for more information.  

Dakota Audio also produces a wide variety of directional audio only solutions that all have two things in common:  They are very small (the thickest array is only 3 inches thin) and they sound great!

  • Overhead arrays come in two sizes: the 36 inch square x 3 inch thick FA-501 and the FA-602 (the FH model is free hanging and the CM model fits in a suspended ceiling)  both of which include an amplifier and user control panel built in for configuring the sound pattern, distance of throw, and tuning for the type of audio being played.

  • Flat Panel Mini Arrays the MA-4 Slimline and the MA-5 Full Range speakers are very popular with digital signage as well as kiosk sound projects and come in a variety of lengths (18-38 inches) though all are less than an inch deep and only two inches tall.  These arrays are one of the most popular with Digital Signage solutions.

  • Floor Mount arrays are manufactured in two varieties: Pre-construction and post-construction models.  The Pre-construction model of the FA-603 is designed to be placed in a pocket built into the floor.  The 0.87 inch thick array can then be placed under a grate or even under the carpet!  The post-construction floor array is only one inch thick and comes with an aluminum perforated grill that is tapered to floor level to assist with ADA compliance.

Dakota Audio also designs custom arrays to precisely fit your needs.  Whether it is designing and manufacturing round arrays for the Smithsonian Institute or special arrays with holes in the center for a light to shine through for the Stax Museum of American Soul Music, Dakota Audio wants to build your Digital Signage solution to your exact specifications.

 

How Dakota Audio Speakers Work:


If two or more sound waves arrive at the same place at the same time, they add and produce a sound wave that is the sum of all of the incoming sound waves.

When multiple sound waves arrive at random times, some waves cancel, producing a sound wave that is less than the sum of the incoming waves.

If several speakers are mounted equal distance from the listener, the sound from each of the speakers arrives at the listener's ears at the same time. The resulting sound is considerably louder than the sound from each individual speaker.

While it wouldn't be practical to mount the speakers in a spherical array, we can achieve the same results by delaying the launch time from the speakers.
