Shure Meeting Room Audio Solutions
Shure offers a broad ecosystem of microphones, DSP, wireless audio and networked loudspeakers for professional meeting spaces.
GT can design systems using products including the Shure MXA920 and MXA925 ceiling array microphones, MXA901 and MXA902 conferencing microphones, Microflex Wireless systems, IntelliMix P300 DSP and Shure networked loudspeakers.
The equipment is selected around the dimensions, acoustics, seating arrangement and purpose of each room rather than using the same solution everywhere.
For organisations developing a wider workplace standard, Shure can also form part of a broader Workplace AV Strategy, allowing audio, cameras, displays, conferencing platforms, room booking and support requirements to be considered together.
Shure AV Integrator UK & Ireland | Meeting Room Audio, DSP & Microphones
Gibb Technology designs and integrates professional Shure audio systems for meeting rooms, boardrooms, Microsoft Teams Rooms, training environments, divisible rooms and all-hands spaces across the UK, Ireland and EMEA.
Shure can form the professional audio layer of a much wider workplace AV system. Ceiling array microphones can work alongside intelligent camera systems, while wireless handheld and lapel microphones can support presenters, trainers and audience participation.
Digital signal processing such as the Shure IntelliMix P300 can connect microphones, loudspeakers and conferencing systems including Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, Neat, Cisco and other professional AV platforms.
The result is a complete meeting-room audio environment designed around the people using the space.
Shure Solutions by Room Type
Shure Audio for Small Meeting Rooms
Small meeting rooms normally need simple, unobtrusive technology.
A ceiling-mounted Shure microphone can keep the meeting table clear while providing professional audio for Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms and other video conferencing systems.
Products such as the MXA902 can combine ceiling microphone pickup with integrated loudspeaker capability, helping create a clean small-room design where appropriate.
GT integrates the audio with cameras, displays, touch controllers and content sharing so the room operates as one complete meeting environment.
For organisations developing multiple room sizes, explore GT's wider Meeting Room AV Solutions.
Shure Audio for Medium Meeting Rooms
Medium meeting rooms usually require greater microphone coverage and more careful audio processing.
GT can use Shure ceiling or table microphones with dedicated IntelliMix processing to improve voice capture across longer tables and larger seating areas.
The Shure audio system can then connect to the organisation's Microsoft Teams Room, Zoom Room or other conferencing platform while working alongside the room's cameras, commercial displays and control technology.
The objective is consistent speech intelligibility without unnecessarily filling the meeting table with microphones and cables.
Shure Boardroom Audio Systems
Executive boardrooms place much greater demands on professional audio.
A participant at the opposite end of a long table should still be heard clearly. Remote attendees need consistent speech levels, while microphones, loudspeakers and camera systems need to operate as one coordinated environment.
GT can design boardrooms using Shure MXA920 or MXA925 ceiling microphones, IntelliMix P300 DSP and professional loudspeakers alongside Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms and intelligent camera systems.
Ceiling microphones can keep the meeting table clear while providing carefully engineered coverage across different seating positions.
For larger boardrooms, additional microphones and loudspeakers can be introduced where required to create more consistent coverage.
Explore how this connects into the wider GT approach to Boardroom AV Systems.
Microsoft Signature Teams Rooms With Shure and Huddly
Premium Microsoft Teams Rooms increasingly combine specialist audio, video and collaboration technologies rather than relying on one integrated video bar.
GT can design a Microsoft Signature-style boardroom using a Lenovo ThinkSmart Core and Controller for the Teams Rooms platform, Huddly Crew for intelligent multi-camera video and a Shure MXA920 ceiling microphone with IntelliMix P300 processing for professional room audio.
The MXA920 captures participants around the meeting space and sends the audio across the network to the P300. The P300 manages conferencing audio processing and connects to the Lenovo Teams Room environment, while the Huddly Crew camera system provides intelligent views of participants around the room.
Professional loudspeakers can then distribute remote participant audio throughout the space so sound is not concentrated only at the front display.
This architecture allows each technology to perform a specialist role while GT engineers the complete room around the user experience.
Shure IntelliMix P300 DSP
The Shure IntelliMix P300 sits behind the meeting-room experience and manages professional conferencing audio.
It can receive multiple networked and analogue microphone sources, process the audio and pass the final conferencing mix into Microsoft Teams, Zoom or another collaboration platform.
GT provides DSP programming and commissioning of the Shure IntelliMix P300 to configure microphone routing, audio processing and conferencing integration around the requirements of the room.
Functions such as acoustic echo cancellation, automatic mixing, noise reduction, automatic gain control, EQ and audio routing help create consistent audio between people inside the room and those joining remotely.
This makes the P300 particularly relevant for larger meeting rooms, boardrooms and training spaces where the AV design goes beyond the capabilities of an integrated video bar.
Ceiling, Handheld and Lapel Microphones in One Room
Different microphones solve different problems.
A Shure ceiling microphone can capture normal discussion from people sitting around a boardroom table or training environment without requiring anybody to handle a microphone.
Wireless handheld microphones can then support presentations, panel sessions and audience questions.
A wireless bodypack with a lapel microphone can provide consistent audio for a trainer or presenter who needs to move around the room.
GT can bring these microphone types together within one professional audio architecture so the space can support everyday meetings, training, presentations and larger internal events without changing the core conferencing platform.
Shure Microflex Wireless neXt
Shure Microflex Wireless neXt extends professional meeting-room audio into training, presentation and multi-purpose spaces.
The MXW neXt 2 combines wireless microphone capability with charging, connectivity and IntelliMix audio processing. Depending on the requirement, handheld and bodypack microphone options can be incorporated into the room.
This is particularly useful where a room needs to move between different uses.
A normal Microsoft Teams meeting may rely primarily on the installed room microphones. Later in the day, the same space could host a presentation where a presenter uses a wireless lapel microphone or an audience member uses a handheld microphone.
GT can configure the audio architecture so the microphone processing and routing remain largely transparent to the people using the room.
Shure for Training Rooms
Training rooms need a different audio strategy from conventional meeting rooms.
The trainer may move continuously around the space, participants may ask questions from different locations and remote attendees still need to hear everything clearly.
GT can combine a Shure MXA920 or MXA925 ceiling microphone with wireless handheld and lapel microphones to create a flexible hybrid training environment.
The ceiling microphone captures natural participant discussion while the wireless microphone gives the trainer consistent audio as they move around the room. The DSP then brings those audio sources together before sending them to Microsoft Teams, Zoom or another conferencing platform.
Intelligent cameras can also be incorporated so remote participants receive better views of both the presenter and audience.
Training environments can therefore form part of the same wider Video Conferencing System strategy as standard meeting rooms and boardrooms.
Shure for All-Hands and Town Hall Spaces
All-hands spaces need to support both local and remote audiences.
A presenter may need a lapel microphone, panel members may use handheld microphones and employees may ask questions from different parts of the audience.
Shure ceiling arrays and wireless microphone systems can be combined so different speakers are captured in the most appropriate way.
The processed audio can then be distributed to the conferencing platform and the local loudspeaker system, allowing people inside the room and joining remotely to hear the same presentation clearly.
Larger all-hands environments may also incorporate professional displays or direct-view LED, multiple cameras, presentation switching and AV control as part of the wider system.
GT approaches these spaces as complete AV environments rather than treating audio, video and presentation technology as separate systems.
Voice Lift for Large Boardrooms and Training Rooms
In a very large boardroom or training room, people may be able to hear remote participants clearly through the conferencing system while still struggling to hear somebody sitting at the opposite side of the physical room.
Voice lift uses installed microphones, DSP and loudspeakers to provide subtle reinforcement of speech inside the space.
GT can design Shure voice-lift systems around ceiling microphone coverage, loudspeaker positioning, room acoustics and the physical layout of the room.
The objective is not to make the meeting sound like an amplified event. It is to make conversation feel natural across a larger distance.
This level of design normally forms part of a broader Workplace AV Design process where microphone coverage, loudspeaker coverage, cameras, displays and room layout are considered before installation begins.
Shure and Neat Meeting Rooms
Shure can extend the professional audio capabilities of Neat meeting-room systems.
GT can combine Neat Bar Pro and Neat Pad with Shure ceiling microphones, DSP, wireless microphones and installed loudspeakers for larger or more acoustically demanding spaces.
This allows organisations to retain the familiar Neat Microsoft Teams or Zoom Rooms experience while extending microphone and loudspeaker coverage beyond the capabilities of the integrated room system.
It can be particularly useful for larger boardrooms, training environments and all-hands spaces.
GT already designs and deploys Neat meeting-room solutions across different room types, allowing the Shure audio system to be considered as part of the complete Neat environment.
Shure and Huddly
Huddly cameras and Shure professional audio can form a strong combination for premium Microsoft Teams Rooms and executive boardrooms.
Huddly Crew can provide intelligent multi-camera views of participants around the room while Shure ceiling microphones provide professional voice capture.
The two technologies perform separate specialist functions but can be designed as part of one coordinated AV system.
This allows GT to engineer camera coverage around what remote participants need to see while separately engineering microphone coverage around what they need to hear.
Shure and Cisco
Shure microphones and professional audio processing can also become part of larger Cisco collaboration rooms.
An integrated Cisco room system may be suitable for many spaces, while larger executive boardrooms, training environments and specialist presentation spaces may require additional microphone or loudspeaker coverage.
GT can design the professional audio system around the physical room while retaining the Cisco collaboration experience.
The objective is not to add technology unnecessarily. It is to extend the AV architecture where the size, acoustics or intended use of the room requires it.
Shure and Q-SYS
Shure microphones can form part of a much wider Q-SYS AV environment.
GT can use Shure ceiling or wireless microphones as specialist audio inputs while Q-SYS manages wider room audio, cameras, video distribution, automation, AV-over-IP and control.
This architecture can be particularly relevant for executive boardrooms, training environments, divisible rooms and all-hands spaces where several AV systems need to respond together.
For example, a divisible training environment could use Shure microphones for participant and presenter audio while Q-SYS manages different room modes, cameras, displays, loudspeaker zones and presentation sources.
Shure and Barco ClickShare
Shure can also form the professional audio layer within Barco ClickShare meeting environments.
This allows users to connect wirelessly to the meeting room while still benefiting from installed ceiling microphones, DSP and professional loudspeakers.
GT can design ClickShare rooms where Barco handles wireless presentation and conferencing connectivity while Shure provides the audio performance required by the physical space.
This is another example of GT selecting individual technologies around the requirement instead of forcing every room into one manufacturer's ecosystem.
GT Project: ZILO Technology, Canary Wharf
GT integrated Shure wireless audio into ZILO Technology's workplace collaboration environment in Canary Wharf.
The space is centred on a 136-inch LG direct-view LED display and combines Neat video collaboration, Shure Microflex Wireless neXt 2 and professional JBL audio.
The Shure wireless system allows the environment to move beyond conventional video meetings into company presentations, internal communications and larger collaborative sessions.
Wireless microphone capability gives presenters greater freedom to move around the space while maintaining clear audio for people in the room and participants joining remotely.
The project demonstrates an important part of GT's approach: specialist products from different manufacturers can be integrated when that creates a stronger overall user experience.
Published Shure Boardroom and Meeting Room Examples
Shure technologies are used in boardrooms, meeting rooms, training spaces and flexible workplace environments around the world.
Published projects include conference rooms using MXA920 ceiling arrays with IntelliMix processing to provide professional audio across long tables and flexible seating arrangements.
These environments demonstrate an important advantage of ceiling microphones: professional voice capture can be provided without filling the meeting table with hardware.
GT applies the same principle when designing Boardroom AV Systems: microphone coverage, camera views, display sightlines, room acoustics and the user experience are considered together.
Published Training and Multi-Purpose Room Examples
Shure has also published installations where ceiling array microphones, IntelliMix processing and wireless microphones operate within the same multi-purpose environment.
This allows a room to change between video conferencing, training, presentations and larger company events without requiring a completely separate AV system for each application.
It is an approach that fits closely with GT's wider Meeting Room AV philosophy: engineer the room around how people actually need to use it.
Shure MXA920 and MXA925 Ceiling Array Microphones
The Shure MXA920 is an established premium ceiling array microphone used in executive boardrooms, Microsoft Teams Rooms, training environments and larger meeting spaces.
Automatic Coverage technology allows microphone coverage to be configured around the areas where people are expected to speak, helping the audio design follow the table, seating and presentation areas rather than simply covering the entire room indiscriminately.
The newer Shure MXA925 develops the ceiling-array architecture further with Shure's latest processing capabilities.
GT can evaluate the MXA920 and MXA925 according to the room design, conferencing platform, acoustic requirements, certification requirements and wider AV architecture.
Ceiling microphone choice should always form part of the complete meeting-room audio design, rather than being based on participant numbers alone.
Shure IntelliMix Foundation System
Shure IntelliMix Foundation provides another approach for organisations developing customised Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms.
The platform combines room compute, touch control, network connectivity and professional IntelliMix audio processing and can then be paired with Shure microphones, loudspeakers and compatible camera systems.
For organisations developing repeatable meeting-room standards, this provides GT with another architecture alongside conventional Microsoft Teams Room PCs and standalone P300 DSP systems.
The correct design depends on room size, camera requirements, audio complexity, organisational standards and how the technology will be managed throughout its lifecycle.
Shure IntelliMix Bar Pro Kit for Microsoft Teams Rooms
The Shure IntelliMix Bar Pro Kit provides an all-in-one Microsoft Teams Rooms solution for medium and larger collaboration spaces, combining professional Shure audio, intelligent video and room control within a simplified system.
The IntelliMix Bar Pro incorporates Shure array microphones, premium stereo loudspeakers and IntelliMix View AI-powered video framing. Its 4K camera system combines wide-angle coverage of up to 135 degrees with telephoto cameras to provide clearer views of individual meeting participants and active speakers. Advanced IntelliMix DSP processes speech, manages acoustic echo and reduces distracting room noise to help improve both the meeting experience and the accuracy of AI-powered meeting transcription.
The complete kit includes the IntelliMix Bar Pro and a 10-inch Shure touch panel, creating a straightforward Microsoft Teams Rooms experience without requiring separate cameras, microphones, loudspeakers and external DSP for every room. Built on Android, the platform also supports zero-touch provisioning and remote monitoring, management, updates and troubleshooting through ShureCloud and compatible enterprise IT management systems.
For organisations standardising meeting rooms, this gives GT another Shure design option. A straightforward medium or large Teams Room may suit the IntelliMix Bar Pro, while an executive boardroom, Signature Teams Room, training space or all-hands environment may benefit from a more customised design using MXA920 or MXA925 ceiling microphones, IntelliMix P300 DSP, wireless microphones and specialist camera systems.
The IntelliMix Bar Pro Kit is designed specifically for Microsoft Teams Rooms. It can join Zoom meetings as a guest, but it does not currently operate as a native Zoom Room.
Designing Shure Audio Around the Room
Professional meeting-room audio should be designed around the physical environment.
GT considers room dimensions, ceiling height, table layout, seating positions, presentation areas, acoustics, camera positions and loudspeaker locations before selecting the microphone system.
For ceiling microphones, GT defines the areas that need to be captured and considers microphone positioning around the people using the space.
For larger rooms, the design can also consider voice lift, wireless presenter microphones and audience participation.
For advanced hybrid spaces, the camera design is developed alongside the audio system so remote participants can both see and hear the people speaking.
GT's Workplace AV Design Services can take the project from initial requirements through system architecture, technology specification, equipment layouts, AV schematics and installation requirements.
Upgrading an Existing Meeting Room With Shure
Professional Shure audio does not always require a complete room replacement.
An existing Microsoft Teams Room, Zoom Room or other meeting space may already have suitable displays, cameras, mounting infrastructure or room control while the audio performance no longer meets the requirements of the space.
GT can assess the existing system and determine whether professional Shure microphones, DSP or wireless audio can form part of a targeted technology refresh.
This can be particularly valuable where a boardroom has grown in importance, room layouts have changed or users are experiencing inconsistent microphone coverage.
Shure as Part of a Wider Workplace AV Strategy
Professional audio should not be considered separately from the wider workplace.
An organisation may have small Microsoft Teams Rooms, larger executive boardrooms, training spaces, all-hands environments and flexible collaboration areas within the same building.
The objective should not necessarily be to install identical equipment in every room. It should be to create a consistent user experience while allowing the technology behind each room to match its actual requirements.
GT can develop a wider Workplace AV Strategy connecting meeting-room standards, conferencing platforms, professional audio, room booking, workplace technology and ongoing support.
Shure Meeting Room Audio FAQs
What is the best Shure microphone for a meeting room?
The best Shure microphone depends on the size, layout and use of the room. Smaller meeting rooms may suit a compact ceiling solution such as the Shure MXA902, while larger boardrooms and training spaces may suit an MXA920 or MXA925 ceiling array, with onboard or additional room DSP selected according to the conferencing platform, loudspeaker system and wider AV architecture.
Can Shure microphones work with Microsoft Teams Rooms?
Yes. Shure professional audio can be integrated with Microsoft Teams Rooms to provide higher-quality microphone pickup and room audio in larger or more demanding spaces. GT can combine Shure ceiling microphones and IntelliMix DSP with Teams Room platforms including Lenovo-based systems, intelligent cameras and professional loudspeakers.
What does the Shure IntelliMix P300 DSP do?
The Shure IntelliMix P300 processes and manages conferencing audio before it reaches Microsoft Teams, Zoom or another collaboration platform. It can provide acoustic echo cancellation, automatic mixing, noise reduction, automatic gain control, EQ and audio routing. It is particularly useful in boardrooms, training rooms and spaces using multiple microphones or loudspeakers.
Can ceiling, handheld and lapel microphones be used in the same meeting room?
Yes. Different microphone types can work together within the same professional audio system. A ceiling microphone can capture normal discussion, while handheld microphones can support audience questions and a wireless lapel microphone can be used by a trainer or presenter. GT can design the DSP and audio routing so these sources operate together as part of one room.
Can Shure be used with Neat Bar Pro?
Yes. Shure and Neat can be combined for larger meeting rooms, boardrooms, training spaces and all-hands environments. A Neat Bar Pro can provide the video conferencing experience while Shure microphones, DSP, wireless microphones and loudspeakers extend the room's professional audio capability.

What is the difference between the Shure MXA920 and MXA925?
Both the MXA920 and MXA925 are professional ceiling array microphones designed for larger meeting and collaboration spaces. The MXA920 is an established solution for boardrooms, training rooms and hybrid meeting environments, while the newer MXA925 builds on the platform with Shure's latest audio processing capabilities. GT can recommend the most suitable model based on room requirements, conferencing platform and wider AV architecture.
Can Shure improve the audio in an existing meeting room?
Yes. A complete AV replacement is not always required. GT can assess an existing Microsoft Teams Room, Zoom Room, Neat room or other conferencing environment and determine whether adding Shure ceiling microphones, DSP, wireless microphones or improved loudspeaker coverage could solve existing audio problems.
This can be particularly useful where a room has grown in importance, the layout has changed or users are experiencing poor microphone coverage.
Is Shure suitable for training rooms and all-hands spaces?
Yes. Shure is well suited to larger multi-purpose spaces where normal video conferencing is only one part of how the room is used.

Plan a Shure Meeting Room With GT
Good meeting-room audio should largely disappear into the experience.
People should be able to walk into a room, start the meeting and communicate naturally without thinking about microphones, DSP, loudspeakers or audio routing.
As rooms become larger and more flexible, achieving that experience requires more careful engineering.
GT can design Shure audio for a new workplace, upgrade an existing Microsoft Teams or Zoom Room, extend a Neat installation or create a complete boardroom, training room or all-hands AV environment.
