The TWICE VIP Awards, presented by TWICE, a leading trade magazine for the consumer electronics and appliance industries, is the only awards program voted on exclusively by consumer tech retailers and distributors. The eighth edition of the TWICE VIP Awards for consumer electronics honors the best features, design, and value that new products are bringing to consumers.

“We are very grateful to receive this award from TWICE,” said ClearOne Chair and CEO Zee Hakimoglu. “That said, we are particularly honored by the overwhelming support we received from the TWICE audience of retailers and distributors throughout the voting process.”

“Home offices have become the standard workplace for tens of millions of professionals who now need a work environment that is just as productive as their corporate office,” added Hakimoglu. “Now, with products like the Aura Xceed BMA, professionals working from home can expect the same performance quality and reliability typically found in a traditional office.”

The Aura Xceed BMA features a powerful USB-enabled Beamforming Ceiling Microphone Array that easily surface mounts to a home office ceiling for superb conferencing audio.

It features a sleek design with a nearly invisible ceiling install allowing users to speak from anywhere in the home office – no longer are users restricted to a desk.
