Speakers & Amplifiers

Hire our top brand speakers. Martin Audio and JBL are amongst the top brands in the industry alongside L’acoustics, D&B, Meyer, Nexo and Adamson.  These are speakers chosen by professional sound engineers, and we have chosen with great confidence in their ability to out-perform their cheaper counterparts.

Please note whether these speakers are hired as a pair or single.  Passive speakers (except subs and line array) are supplied in pairs with an amplifier for simplicity.  Prices given are for a 1 day hire. Longer hire periods are available.  Other equipment can be obtained for larger event projects.

Please ask us for the dry hire terms and conditions when you make your booking.

Try to think of your speakers as a system for a particular space, the wattage output can be misleading and does not represent the best solution in many cases.  Instead aim for SPL coverage suited to the event type.

"I Need a Bigger PA System!"

Larger speakers systems can be specified for particular events.  Please always call for advice.  Our preferred choice, JBL VTX A8, can be obtained if you want the highest fidelity compact line array on the market for prestigious artists and events.  Please call.
