Both Brown Sound Innovations and Holosonics will send you a demo model for you to try in your own facility. Its a free service - except for the shipping.

We did this for our most recent project. The holosonics did not have the bass range we wanted for our application, but that's not to say it won't work well for you.

>
>> Dear Colleagues,
>>
>> I am researching different ways to provide audio for a new
>> interpretive video that will be installed in our museum court.
 Rather
>> than headsets, I'd like to consider an audio spotlight.
 Specifically,
>> the Audio Spotlight from Holosonic was recommended by our tech
>> consultants. We have used audio domes before in an exhibition and
 the
>> sound leaked throughout the gallery and was distracting for the
>> visitors and our docents and staff.

>> Has anyone used the Holosonic Audio Spotlight before? How many
 people
>> did it accommodate at once? Standing or seated? Did the floor and  
>> wall
>> materials impact the sound distribution? What kind of feedback did  
>> you
>> get from the visitors?
>>
>> In addition to sound, we will also have the video captioned.
>>
>> Thank you,
>> Leah
