Versatile Event Coverage

Outside Broadcast Unit

The Outside Broadcast unit and tenders were coach-built in 2018 by Spectra with the aim of providing a high-quality and comfortable environment whilst also offering a cost-effective solution to service work in the small-mid OB market. During the latter half of 2018 the truck completed over 25 productions. Its versatility enables its usage on all sorts of event coverage - from sport to music and also AV solutions for conferences. We have partnered up with Ethosaudio.co.uk to provide a world-class service for contracts that demand a more complex sound provision. We’d be delighted to discuss the unit with you in more depth and to explore how we could help you with your requirements.
