What Is a Delegate Microphone System?
A delegate microphone system is a group of desk-mounted microphones connected together for structured, clear communication. Each microphone unit usually includes:
- A push-to-talk button
- A built-in speaker or headphone output
- LED indicators to show when the mic is active
- Volume control
Some systems can also include a chairman unit with extra features like the ability to mute other mics or control who speaks.
These systems are ideal when multiple people need to speak in turn, and when you need to keep audio clean and free from background noise or interruptions.

Easy Setup and Support

If you’re not sure how many microphones you need, just ask—we can help you plan the right setup for your room and audience size.
Reliable, Wired Systems
We supply wired delegate microphone systems. Wired setups are more reliable than wireless, especially in busy environments with lots of mobile or radio signals. You won’t need to worry about battery life, interference, or dropped signals. Audio is routed over secure cables for consistent, clean sound.
Integration with Sound and Recording
Delegate microphone systems can be linked to your main sound system, so the audio is heard clearly by everyone in the room. They can also be connected to recording devices for keeping a copy of the discussion or for transcription later.
Need to stream your event online? These systems can also be integrated with live streaming platforms or hybrid meeting tools.

We offer daily, weekly, and long-term hire packages. Whether it’s a one-off meeting or a recurring event, we can tailor a solution to fit your needs and budget.
