Hollyland has launched a new Double Ear Version of its Solidcom C1 Pro Full-Duplex ENC Wireless Intercom Headset System.
I reviewed the single ear versions of the Hollyland Solidcom C1 Pro on the site last year and you can see that review here.
The Double Ear Version has all the same features and functionality, with the addition of having two ear covers instead of one. This makes it a better option if you are working in loud environments such as concerts or other events.
The Hollyland Solidcom C1 Pro is a full-duplex wireless intercom headset system that operates in the 1.9GHz band. It has a claimed operating range of up to 1000′ / 350m.
KEY FEATURES
- Clear wideband audio with 150Hz to 7KHz frequency response
- 1000ft / 350m intercom connection range
- DECT 6.0 for enhanced stability and security
- Replaceable rechargeable battery for extended working time
- 170g lightweight headset (with battery)
- Easy to use out of the box
- Customizable and expandable package scheme for varying team sizes
What are they for?
On film sets, wireless handsets can increase efficiency by allowing team members to easily communicate with each other. They can come in very handy when you are filming live shows with multiple cameras, reality TV, or any type of event where a team needs to communicate with each other over large distances.
You could also use them for simple communication between a solo shooter and a director or producer, or even to talk to a sound recordist. There really aren’t any hard fast rules as to what you could use them for.
I often use headsets on my productions as it easily allows members of the crew to talk to each other when you are not close and it also means that nobody needs to shout. If you have clients on set then having the crew be able to communicate quietly and efficiently without shouting or trying to track down someone who isn’t close sends the correct message. If you want to be professional then it is also important to act professionally as well.
Wireless headsets are not a new concept by any means. There have been systems in place just like the Hollyland for a long time.
