Robotic combat fans now get a premier audio experience to go along with the technological carnage of BattleBots. Biamp will provide the audio for the BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon live events at Caesar's Entertainment Studios in Las Vegas.

The BattleBots arena will feature a variety of Community Loudspeakers, Amplified Loudspeaker Controllers (ALCs), rigging accessories, Desono Loudspeakers, and one TesiraFORTÉ AI digital signal processor. Installed throughout the studio, including in the BattleBots arena, the lobby, VIP lounge, and the BattleBots Store, the equipment creates an immersive audio experience to enhance the visual thrills of live robot combat five shows a week.
