The installation of our first classroom Front Row Pro Digital system went well. In about three hours time, we had the four speakers mounted in the ceiling tiles, the infrared ceiling sensor attached to the ceiling gridwork, and all the cables pulled over - above ceiling - to our designated head end location. As the cables emerged from the ceiling, they were encased in a protective plastic panduit that ran down the wall to the master computer. The Front Row receiver is attached to the instructor's master teacher workstation, where it can be used for Internet sound, computer sound, DVD's and audio CD's. We have two microphones for the unit - one is the teacher's pendant mic, and the other a student mic, which can be hand-held or attached to a lanyard. Both microphones utilize the 950C charger. We generally wait for two weeks before requesting our first user review - which will come from the two teachers who share the room. That will be happening shortly ... and after that, I'll be visiting the classroom myself for additional conversation regarding the product and our setup. As a side note - to date, there have been no "emergency calls" from the classroom - which generally means the unit is functioning as it was intended. The Front Row receiver is currently resting on the teacher's desk ... and one decision we have yet to make is whether we will add a wall-mounted shelf near the head end, or leave it on the desk as is. *Some classrooms also have a DVD-VHS combo unit sitting on a shelf ... so we may decide to move the Front Row receiver from the teacher's desk, and add it to the shelf. Time will tell.

We have successfully used the Radium/Front Row towers for almost 20 years. Our teachers love how their students' listening and attending skills improve with sound field technology in the classroom. The pass-around mic is a BIG hit with students. This is well made equipment and with proper care and maintenance, our sets continue to work after 15+ years.

I've had a great experience with Front Row. They're helpful, quick to respond, and my students and I are really enjoying our sound system!

Hi Nakomis and thanks! We're very happy you're enjoying your sound system!

We've worked extensively with Front Row to provide sound enhancement systems to all of our classrooms. The technology as well as the support has been outstanding. We see greater student engagement because of the attention grabbing quality of sound. A great company to work with.

Eddie Navarro came out to school site personally, installing a RF unit in an area with very high ceilings and walls of windows to provide audio is an area that had little to none. Teacher and students are happy, audio is heard throughout area. We purchased the "ToGo" unit. Very nice to pilot a unit to see if it fits the needs and resolves issues before purchase. Thank you Eddie.

Thanks Claudia! (We're fond of Eddie, too!) :-)

I only wish there was an on/off switch actually on the speaker. I know you can just press the buttons on the microphones but it would still be nice to have an on/off button. Other than that, it sounds great! The kids love it. Classroom management has also improved as well. Thank you!

Hi Shellie -- Thanks for the review -- we're glad to hear it's a hit with the kids and helping with classroom management! If we're correct that you have Juno (a white tower with a powder-blue grille), then there actually is an on/off switch. It's on the bottom of the tower, just behind and to the right of the stand (assuming you haven't mounted the tower to the wall). If you have any trouble, let us know at [email protected] or +1 800 227 0735. Thanks!

This product is very well made and user friendly. It is used in a gallery setting mostly for speeches to a seated crowd or for smaller talks and discussions. Unfortunately it does tend to give off feedback as the person speaking moves around and so they become quite limited in where they can walk, sometimes even just to the projection and back. Because of the gallery setting any feedback is really noticeable can be quite disruptive to the event.

Hi Pippin -- Sorry to hear that feedback has been an issue. I would guess you're using FrontRow ToGo, which does not have the digital feedback suppression that FrontRow Juno, Pro Digital, and ezRoom have. Assuming you are using ToGo, there are ways to minimize the likelihood of feedback -- for example, by positioning the tower somewhat forward of the presenter (e.g., at the side of and facing toward the center of the audience), plus being sure to use a directional or boom microphone. In any case, if you would like to leave your contact information at https://www.gofrontrow.com/au-en/contact-us, we would be happy to help you achieve the best setup for your gallery.
