While it isn't quite wireless audio, the new V-Tower Ground Support System from Total Structures does allow you to build audio delay towers without the need for guy wires, reducing the footprint in audience areas. This system, based on standard Total Structures 12" Tower Truss and standard Light Duty box truss, gives you 30 feet of trim height to fly up to 1500 pounds of line array audio gear.
Thanks to its self stabilizing design, and its use of the PA equipment to self-ballast the structure, this system requires no external ballast blocks or guy cables in most applications. The system has been fully engineered, and allows PA systems to be flown in conditions up to 40 mph 3 second wind gusts. Users can cover the inclined mast with graphics for additional signage space by reducing the maximum wind speed to 30 mph. With the exception of the corner junction, head block, and tower supports, all components are standard, off the shelf products which many customers already have in inventory. This use of standard parts allows our users to obtain this technology without investing in an entire system of dedicated components that only work for one application.
