Dual-Angle Pole Mount Socket (CHR15, CHR12)
Depending on the venue, sometimes your mix can fall prey to low ceilings or other room attributes that can impede a clear, even mix and detract from the audience's listening experience significantly. The DHR15 and DHR12's pole mount socket offers two positions - 0° or -7° - to direct the acoustic energy away from reflective surfaces and onto your audience where it belongs.
