What is the voice range on the LRAD 500?

The LRAD 500, or Long-Range Acoustic Device 500, is designed to deliver clear audio messages over extended distances. Its effective voice range is around 550 yards, allowing operators to communicate important instructions or warnings to individuals at significant distances without requiring the loudness to create undue panic or chaos. This capability is essential for crowd control situations, ensuring that messages can be conveyed effectively even in noisy environments.

This range combines both the technology behind the device and the intended operational scenarios where clear communication is critical. By being able to project sound farther than standard loudspeakers, the LRAD system enhances situational awareness for both the operators and the subjects they are addressing.
