Price Examples

What kind of pa you need for your event depends on many different things. A system that might be just right for a 1000 people audience capacity live jazz event would probably be to small for an 850 people audience hip hop or rock act. Is it live music or does it come from the CD or MP3 player ? Is it a long, narrow room?…or is it a wide, short space???…or is it outside? How is the room cut? All these things matter to what size pa you will need.

Here are some examples to give you a rough idea about pricing. Rates may vary from event to event. Get an offer for your event now! Please note that all prices include delivery installation and engineering.
