We manufacture and distribute the Shermann range of highly portable, easily assembled, mobile cinema sound systems and supply to local authorities, rental companies and bona-fide arts facilities.

The ARC1 cinema sound systems was introduced some years ago as an entry-level professional sound package to cover smaller audience numbers up to 100.

The system is designed to be lightweight and portable.
We have experience of complete systems, including the screen and projector, being transported in vehicles similar in size to the VW Golf and the Ford Focus with room to spare.

The basic ARC-1 system may be uprated using other loudspeakers from the Shermann range for example, the GL2 with no change to other components within the system.

The ARC Series will soon be expanded with the addition of a lightweight, passive bass unit as a simple add-on for the ARC1 system.
This add-on will operate from existing ARC1 amplification.
