Matthew Nettlefold, business development manager, POLARaudio commented, "The MCWD 200 / Steno-S / Biamp combination was the ideal solution for the council, as it provides unequalled flexibility and quality that meets their requirements. The mix of ease of use and intuitive user interfaces, combined with the excellent installation by Apple Sound, means that council staff can carry out their meetings with peace of mind.
