Robert opted for the Sennheiser Digital 9000 system because of its superior audio quality and due to the fact that it gives him the ability to encrypt the transmitters. The interesting part of this installation for The X Factor is that we’ve combined the aerial feeds on the new system, allowing audio coverage in the outside set and the studio simultaneously.
