US Marines,
Naval Officers, veterans and community members gathered on July 25 at Fort
Sheridan, Illinois for a somber and dignified ceremony in memory of armed
forces members killed by a gunman in Chattanooga, Tennessee. They were joined
by 10th District Congressman Bob Dold, who came to honor the four
marines and one sailor who died at the Chattanooga Navy Reserve Center on July
16, 2015. The outdoor service was enhanced by the use of a portable PA from
AmpliVox Sound Systems, based in nearby Northbrook, Illinois.
The system
used at the ceremony, AmpliVox’s SW915 Digital Audio Travel Partner, is a
convenient and versatile all-in-one system for indoor or outdoor use. The 250-watt amplifier clearly projects
voices for audiences up to 7,500 people, and its built-in Bluetooth™ module enables music streaming
directly from smartphones or other devices. The portable unit runs for up to 10
hours on its rechargeable batteries, allowing for easy set-up in outdoor
venues.
“AmpliVox is
honored to have been part of this important remembrance ceremony at Fort
Sheridan,” noted Don Roth, AmpliVox CEO. “Our products are frequently used in
houses of worship and similar settings where reliability and clarity of sound
are of utmost importance. We’re indebted to all members of the armed services
for the many sacrifices they make, and proud to play any part we can in sharing
these messages of support.”
