Because Every Presentation Deserves to be Heard

Portable audio means flexibility and ease of use for any type of situation, which is why our
wireless UHF mics can be used with both of our PowerPro and PresentationPro PA
systems. Califone wired microphones are equally powerful and reliable—which is especially critical on
Back-to-School nights, PTO events, assemblies and other important high-profile occasions.
