The term ‘Sound System’ can cover a very big area and have lots of different meanings! On this page we try to give a brief description of the various types of sound system that we hire:


MOBILE SYSTEMS:



These are sound systems that can be used on a car or small van! They usually consist of 2 Outdoor Horn Type Loudspeakers fitted to a board that sits on the roof of the car or van. These are powered by a small 12volt powered amplifier which can be powered either from the car cigarette socket or external 12v battery. These come complete with cabled microphone



PORTABLE SYSTEMS:



These are compact cabinet type loudspeakers that have amplifier, battery power supply, radio microphone receiver and sometimes a CD or USB/SD Card player all built inside. This means that these systems can be used anywhere - even if mains are not available. They come with a choice of either handheld or body pack radio transmitters. These are very easy systems to use!



OUTDOOR SYSTEMS:

Outdoor Systems can start with small simple single loudspeaker horn or column speaker system to cover a few hundred people - right up to very large and extensive high powered systems than can cover hundreds of thousands of people.

We only use professional speakers, not the cheap small sized horns that some people use who claim to hire sound at next to nothing prices!

We hold possibly one of the largest stocks of both horn type and column type loudspeakers in the UK. We stock various types of horns - even 42” exponential horns, large and the smaller compact outdoor column speakers as well as ‘music horns’ which is a type of PA horn that has full range frequency reproduction, but is still very directional like a horn. We also stock very high powered 100v line cabinet/column type speakers for those events that require high power and lots of bass! Using combinations of al the different types of loudspeaker we are able to cover any type of event, from small local events right up to major national and international sporting events. Size of site is no problem for us - as we regularly cover major events that cover vast areas and sometimes even have one of more systems linked together using UHF Radio Links. Not only do we provide excellent equipment, all our staff have many years experience behind them - and you will find that they are always willing to ‘muck in’ and help our clients where they can. We also have staff who are extremely experienced commentators who can be regularly heard at major events around Wales. Finally - our equipment works and is 100 percent reliable, using our services, you will not be dissapointed!
