DPA Mics Adopted By Big IF Rally

DPA Microphones were adopted by speakers at the recent Big IF rally in London's Hyde Park; not least by Microsoft founder Bill Gates.
Sound, lighting and power for the event was supplied by Ethix Management.
Ethix’s Managing Director Paul Jones said: "We took 12 DPA d:fine™ Headset Microphones to the event and used them to mic various speakers, including Bill Gates. Apart from the fact that they sit so well on the user's head and are incredibly comfortable, they were also chosen because they offer the best sound reproduction.
"When you are dealing with the spoken word there is absolutely no room for error as it is vital that the speakers are heard by everyone in the crowd. DPA d:fine Headset Microphones allow us to deliver loud and clear audio and, in our opinion, nothing beats them."
The DPA d:fine Headset Microphones for this event were supplied by the company's UK distributor Sound Network.
"We use d:fine Headset Microphones at many of the events we handle because we know we can rely on them to deliver the results we want," Paul Jones adds.
"We are now planning to invest in a DPA d:facto™ Vocal Microphone so that we have an alternative available for speakers who don't like to wear headset mics."
The Big IF rally was organised by the 'Enough Food For Everyone IF' coalition, as an event to raise awareness about world hunger.
Speakers such as Bill Gates, Danny Boyle, the former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Willliams and Nelson Mandela's wife Graça Machel called for action to end hunger at the event.
