At ISC West 2025, Bosch introduced an exciting new audio solution for smaller commercial spaces—the Dynacord U Series. Designed with simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in mind, the U Series brings professional-grade public address and background music capabilities to environments like pharmacies, offices, small retail stores, and boutique hospitality spaces.
In a conversation between Bosch's Preston Stevenson and Tom Fontana, the focus was clear: provide an intuitive, entry-level audio system that delivers core functionality without the added complexity—and cost—of high-end emergency notification features.
The U Series keeps things lean while still offering impressive flexibility and performance.
“Now we’re able to utilize one speaker to do public address and also your music to reduce your infrastructure costs, your speaker costs,” Tom pointed out. “But also now have a head-end that is reducing the overall cost by roughly how much?”
“I would say, you know, it could be 50, 60%,” Preston said.
While the U Series steps away from advanced health monitoring and supervision typically found in enterprise systems like Bosch's Praesensa solution, it still supports fault relays and SIP phone system integration, and it can even work with video analytics from connected cameras.
“We can still ensure that product is operational,” Preston added. “We can tie it in if we want to from a SIP phone system. We can play some analytics from some cameras if we need to through this.”
Whether you're a small business owner or an AV integrator looking for a scalable solution, Dynacord U Series is easy to procure and learn.
For those new to Dynacord or commercial audio systems, Bosch also offers online training modules that are quick and easy to follow. And for those who eventually grow into more complex systems, Bosch provides comprehensive training through its learning management system.
The Dynacord U Series from Bosch is a thoughtfully engineered audio solution tailored for small-scale environments needing reliable background music and public address—without the expense or complexity of large-scale emergency systems. With intuitive design features like no power button, multi-use speakers, and significant cost savings, it’s a perfect fit for businesses that need performance without the overhead. Whether you're outfitting a pharmacy, retail boutique, or office space, Dynacord U delivers simplicity without compromise.
