MSL and Oticon join together to give Kiwi Kids a FrontRow seat in the classroom

Microwave Systems Limited and hearing technology manufacturer, Oticon New Zealand have come together to provide teachers, students and schools with technology that gives students a
front row seat for their learning.

MSL and Oticon have been working together on arrangements to support MSL’s customers following the death of MSL’s Managing Director Don Grover earlier this year.

“We are pleased to be able to step in and take over responsibility for sales and servicing of MSL’s sound field products,” says Karen Pullar, Oticon NZ’s General Manager. “Don’s daughter, Jo
Dunshea, who was office manager at MSL has joined the Oticon team as well.

“Jo is working with schools to co-ordinate sales and service requests, quotes for new equipment and help with any sound field inquiries.”

Oticon has purchased the assets of MSL and the new arrangements mean Oticon will preserve the service and technology offerings to schools and educational settings, and provide ongoing
support and service.

Farewell to Don Grover

 

Don was passionate about children and education, and inspired many with his belief in the benefits sound system technology could deliver for children’s learning and achievement.

 

Don was a qualified Electronics Engineer with more than 25 years experience in telecommunications, electronics and marine industries.  He took a personal interest in produce development.

 

For Don, his work at MSL wasn’t a job it was his hobby.

 

 

About Oticon NZ and FrontRow technology

 

Oticon New Zealand has been offering Easy Listener and FrontRow sound field systems for the New Zealand classroom environment for more than 15 years.  It has worked in partnership with schools and communities to help teachers and students benefit from sound field technology.

 

Research shows that students can miss 25 percent of what teachers say.  Oticon’s FrontRow fixes this and removes barriers to learning.  The FrontRow technology clarifies and evenly distributes sound so each child has equal access to a lesson – and that means every child essentially gets a front row seat to learn.
