📸 Throwback to ISCVEx 2016!

A decade ago, we were exhibiting at ISCVEx — and look how things have changed! 👀

Fast forward to today and we’re getting ready to head back again in March. 🎉

A lot can happen in 10 years, but it’s great to see some events remain part of the journey.

Who remembers ISCVEx 2016? 🙌

When the specification doesn’t fit the product, change the product.

Not every project can be designed around an off-the-shelf solution.

Sometimes it’s the bracket that needs adapting.
Sometimes the cabling needs to meet a different requirement.
Sometimes the speaker housing needs to work within a very specific space.
And sometimes the system requires a different configuration altogether.

That’s where Penton UK’s bespoke service comes in.

Our team can support project-specific requirements through custom bracketry, metalwork, cabling and selected product modifications, helping turn a challenging specification into a practical, installation-ready solution.

From initial requirements and engineering through to production, assembly and testing, we can work with you to find the right approach.

Because good project planning isn’t always about finding the perfect product. Sometimes it’s about making the right product fit the project.

🔊 3 quick tips for getting your loudspeakers right

1️⃣ Think coverage, not just volume
Good PA isn't about making everything louder. It's about getting clear, consistent sound where it's needed.

2️⃣ Look at the environment
Indoor or outdoor? High ceilings? Background noise? Damp or exposed? The space should influence your speaker choice.

3️⃣ Plan the installation
Position, height, spacing and orientation can all affect coverage and speech intelligibility.

💡 A little planning can make a big difference to the finished system.

🔧 HOW TO: Get the best from your PA loudspeaker installation 🔊

A few simple checks can prevent some common installation headaches:

1️⃣ Check the positioning
Think about coverage, height and direction before fixing the speaker in place. Small changes can make a big difference to clarity.

2️⃣ Check your connections
Loose or incorrect connections can quickly turn into poor or no audio. Always check wiring and line settings before assuming there's a fault.

3️⃣ Listen before you leave 👂
Don't just check that the speaker makes a sound. Walk the space and listen for consistent coverage and clear speech.

4️⃣ Is it loud enough?
That's easy to tell. But will it still be loud enough once your project gets busy, with machines or crowds creating additional noise?

5️⃣ Or is it too loud?
Louder doesn't always mean better. Volume directly affects how well messages and announcements can be understood.

💡 A few minutes checking the basics can save a lot of troubleshooting later.

🌐 It’s not just about sending audio. It’s about what your system can do with it.

Audio over IP is changing the way commercial audio systems are designed, installed and managed.

With the right IP-based solution, audio can travel across an existing network, making it easier to connect different areas, add functionality and adapt the system as requirements change.

And it’s not limited to paging. Think intercom, music streaming, lockdown and audio challenge, audio routing, scheduled bells and monitoring — all within one flexible platform.

That’s where solutions like TERRACOM come in. 🔊

For installers and system designers, Audio over IP means more possibilities, without necessarily adding more cabling and complexity.

Is Audio over IP becoming a must-have for the next generation of commercial audio systems?

🔊 You might recognise the MSH30... but have you seen the MSH30-IP?

The MSH30 is a well-established choice for public address, but the MSH30-IP brings the same familiar format into the world of networked audio.

Ideal for enhanced background music playback, weather-resistant IP loudspeaker designed for applications where you need clear, reliable audio without complicated installation.

And the best bit? We have them available. 👀

So if you're looking at your next IP audio project, it might be time to take a closer look at the MSH30-IP.

☕ Hope you had a great Bank Holiday!

Now it's back to business, and for many public spaces, that means welcoming visitors, supporting staff and keeping everything running smoothly.

Behind the scenes, Public Address & Voice Alarm systems play an important role every day (including bank holidays!) delivering clear announcements, supporting operations and standing ready should an emergency arise.

It's one of those systems you rarely think about... until you need it.

Here's to a productive week ahead! 🔊
