American Audio is debuting six new additions to its line-up of professional audio products at the 2017 NAMM show which began in Los Angeles, California today (Thursday the 19th of January). The new items comprise three corded mics, two pairs of headphones and package of four wireless mics with a 4-way 1U rack-mount receiver.

At NAMM 2017 American Audio is introducing a new range of vocal microphones that have been designed to offer an unrivaled package of affordability, reliability, and audio quality. The entry level mic is the VPS-20, a low-cost general purpose Cardioid mic. Next in line is the VPS-60, a Supercardioid stage microphone that offers minimum handling noise and maximum sound quality. Finally, at the top of the new microphone range, is the VPS-80, a mic ideal for mobile entertainers. Its ultra-smooth frequency response accurately provides clear, natural sound while its Supercardioid pattern ensures maximum gain before feedback. All three new microphone models are supplied, as standard, with a 15-foot cable and stand clip, while the VPS-60 and VPS-80 models also include a storage bag.

Another new product released at NAMM 2017 is the American Audio WU-419V wireless mic package. Featuring four UHF microphones and a four-channel 1U rack mount receiver, the system offers fantastic value making it ideal for mobile DJs running karaoke or offering mics for wedding speeches. The set comes with four interchangeable coloured rings, which can be used to easily identify which mic is currently in use, and the receiver offers individual level controls and dedicated XLR output sockets for each channel. Offering excellent audio quality, a wireless range of up to 90M (line of sight) and a microphone battery life of 6-10 hours, the WU-419V is a versatile tool that is perfect for any situation that requires multiple wireless vocal mics.

Finally, American Audio is extending its range with two new pairs of high-quality headphones at NAMM 2017. The BL-40 and BL-60 models both feature 40mm drivers generating a frequency response of 10Hz-22KHz for full, rich and loud music reproduction. The BL-40 features a sleek and smooth black and grey design with fixed ear cups. Meanwhile the premium BL-60 boasts a flexible folding-cup design and all-black aesthetic. Both models are supplied with a carry bag as well as a choice of cables, including coiled and straight options.

“I’m very excited by the new products that we have to launch at NAMM 2017, which are attractive both to retailers as well as end users,” commented Tom Freret, US Sales Manager for American Audio. “Over time, we have had many successful pro audio products. We are confident that these new products will draw more attention to our complete line of professional audio from American Audio. Covering headphones as well as both corded and wireless mics, all six items embody the American Audio philosophy of providing high quality, yet affordable audio equipment for musicians, performers, mobile entertainers, rental and production companies. The VPS mics feature rich audio and robust build quality, making them ideal for all kinds of performance and recording applications, while our new headphones not only sound great, but look fantastic too. Then, there’s the WU-419V, an innovative product that features four good-quality wireless mics, complete with coloured identification rings and individual level controls, which offers phenomenal value. Perfect for mobile entertainers, production companies, churches and many other applications, this package provides an easy route to a reliable multi-mic wireless setup.”
