PICK THE PERFECT PA SYSTEM

Creating your own live sound system is easy. For small gatherings and events you need only a microphone and a powered speaker. As your audience grows you will need to add more gear like mixers, signal processors and amplifiers to make sure your sound can grow with you.

POWERED (ACTIVE) OR UNPOWERED (PASSIVE)

Live sound speakers can either be powered (active) or unpowered (passive). Powered live sound PA speakers have necessary components like amplifiers, crossovers, and signal processors built right in. This allows you to quickly connect your speakers directly to your sound system or audio mixers. This type of setup is the easiest and quickest to setup for your gig.

Unpowered live sound speakers don't have amps built-in. This means that you will need external amplifiers to drive them. Unpowered speakers are an excellent choice for permanent placement and install applications such as in schools, churches, and concert venues. For the best sound, don't forget live sound speaker accessories such as speaker stands and mounts.
