2007-03-28 - TASCAM MAKES PUSH INTO PRESENTATION MARKET

TASCAM has introduced a trio of products designed to fit the professional presentation market. The AV-452 Presentation Mixer/Amplifier, DV-D6500 DVD Player and 322 Dual-Well Cassette Deck all share features that installers demand - like rock-solid reliability and the ability to be controlled via RS-232.

"TASCAM has long been a trusted standard for installations where reliability, audio quality and flexibility are demanded by contractors and installers," states Jim Mack, Division Manager for TASCAM. "With these three products, we have responded to the growing trend of remote control using system controllers like Crestron and AMX.
