Kurt at District Administration wrote an article about classroom audio in October’s issue. Audio is just as important as other technology tools in the classroom. Unfortunately audio is often overlooked as technology buyers seek visual technologies like projectors, computers, whiteboards, and TV’s. Once installed it is quite apparent that the built-in speakers in these devices are inadequate for classroom learning.
Our mission is to develop products for use in challenging environments like classrooms. In other words, we do not design speakers for all environments. We design our products for these environments to solve the unique acoustic
problems inherent in classrooms.
For example, the Astronaut employs a technology patent that Cetacea developed for group listening environments. By dispersing the soundfield in an omni-directional pattern, the Astronaut speaker enables all listeners to hear the same sound regardless of where they sit. By reaching more of the audience with correct audio, we can ensure optimal intelligibility for students whether by voice amplification or recordings.

Cetacea Sound introduces the all-new Astronaut CL and XL classroom speaker system, now with Centré Fusion, a new Cetacea Sound technology that improves voice clarity in speaker designs.
“Often referred to as the “Holy Grail” of audio, authentic voice reproduction comes at a very high price,” according to Jim Goetz, President and CEO. “Centré Fusion overcomes the two main disadvantages of prior speaker designs that improve voice recognition: size and cost”, according to Mr. Goetz.
The Centré Fusion technique allows speaker designs to now be any size, shape, and power range and still bring audiophile quality to the everyday consumer. “Our technique,” Goetz added, “will find its way into every aspect of the audio world and every market from consumer electronics and home-theater to pro-audio and entertainment. And, it has no frequency response limitations.”
The first Cetacea Sound products to benefit from Centré Fusion technology are the company’s two lines of classroom speakers named the Astronaut CL and the Astronaut XL which are now shipping.
The company filed for patent protection on Centré Fusion September 27, 2011.
Astronaut CL and XL are now available on LaunchPad. Please note: Astronaut CL system numbers have been updated per the following. Please update your records.
