Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket (CHR15)
Depending on the venue, sometimes your mix can fall prey to low ceilings or other room attributes that can impede a clear, even mix and detract from the audiences' listening experience significantly. The CHR15's pole mount socket offers two positions - 0 Degree or -7 Degree - to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and on to your audience where it belongs.
