70" LED Flat Panel Available from Sharp

From time to time AVE is asked about the viability of flat panels in place of projectors for boardrooms, conference rooms, corp lobbies, church worship spaces etc.  The benefits of a flat panel vs. projector are quite substantial.  They are bright, they are very high contrast and the lifespan is in the neighborhood of 20,000 hours with no need for lamp replacement.  Projector lamps costing $ 400 or so for 3000 hours of use would cost almost as much as the flat panel over time. 

For a long time 60" flat panels were the only option and a little too small for many applications where a projector will produce a much larger image.  Sharp will begin shipping a 70" diagonal LED 1080p flat panel display soon.   These flat panels are heavy (over 100lbs.) and require profesional installation.  Contact us today to learn how this flat panel may be a benefit for your application.  The Sharp LC70LE732U is currently $ 3,300.00 + freight.

Amazing new product offering from AVE!!

We have an exciting new product offering for our clients.  A microphone mute feedback reducing pressure pad system…..

Many churches and auditoriums struggle with podium, lectern or altar mic feedback or the lack of gain that can be achieved with these types of microphones.  AVE is now offering a great solution to fix this challenge.  This pressure pad system will put your altar, lecturn or podium mic in a constant state of MUTE until a person weighing 60 lbs or more stands on the pressure pad placed in front of this mic position.  This way the mic is only activated when a person is speaking.  Since many of these type of mics work much better with a person standing in front of them, “proximity effect”, this is a very elegant solution to help improve gain and volume without causing feedback. 

Package Includes:

·         Electronic pressure mat

·         A rug or rubber pad above pressure mat, your choice

·         Electronics assembly

·         On site installation within 90 miles of Twin Cities, additional charges apply if further than 90 miles from Twin Cities.

Package price is only $ 899.00 per position or $ 699.00 for clients that buy from this offer by January 31, 2011!! Contact Us Today for a consultation, call 763-561-0433
