The italian company presents new product ranges to major international exhibitions, starting from the Intersec fair in Dubai and then back to Europe for ISE, in Amsterdam from February 5th to 8th.
Paso always played a key role in the sound diffusion and voice evacuation market and, as usual, foreign fairs are an excellent occasion for new products to be presented. Main news of ISE 2019 will be the voice evacuation compact systems. The PAW family, which already included the PAW3502-V model and the PAW4500-VES range, is now extended with the PAW5500 range which consist of two different ranges: PAW5500-VES range (models PAW5502-V, PAW5504- V, PAW5506-V / 500W / 2-4-6 zones) and PAW51K-VES range (models PAW51K4-V, PAW51K6-V / 1000W / 4-6 zones). Both series offer technical improvements and new functional features including an integrated SD / USB reader for reading mp3 files, multilingual management software, a dual LINK line for connection to other PAW units, independent 3-band equalizer for each zone, the possibility of inserting new cards that allow the addition of 2 or 6 musical inputs.
