The solution
Carleton University, renowned for its commitment to academic excellence and innovation, faced acoustic challenges in a concrete room with geometric shapes and skylights. Seeking to elevate audio quality in their hybrid classroom, often used for high-level Senate meetings, they turned to Sennheiser's TeamConnect Ceiling 2 (TCC 2). The microphones were discreetly installed in the skylights, blending seamlessly with the room's upgraded aesthetics. Armand Doucet, the university's Learning Spaces Project Supervisor, praised Sennheiser's design and flexibility, citing the analog output's compatibility with older systems and Dante operation as decisive factors. The TruVoiceLift feature, coupled with superior audio quality, ensured clear discussions during meetings. Carleton University's choice of TeamConnect Ceiling 2 underscores Sennheiser's reputation for quality and innovative design. With 40 units installed, the university continues its commitment to providing an exceptional learning and meeting experience.

"We chose Sennheiser initially because of their quality and reputation. However, the TCC 2 design also factored in this choice: the fact that there is an analog output allowing us to use these mics in rooms with an older DPS (non-Dante or AES67), as well as single channel Dante operation."
