Tauranga Speaker Hire

A good quality sound system is necessary when you’re hosting a gathering or event, or holding a conference where sound is an essential component. This is particularly important if it’s an outdoor event, like at the Bay Dreams day out in the Mount or the Tauranga Summer Markets. Regardless of the type of event, you want attendees to get the best sound quality possible. Event Production Services provides top-of-the-range speakers for hire to suit any event in Tauranga.

While hiring the best speakers in the market is vital for the sound quality for your event, there are other key factors that affect the sound quality. One of these is the positioning of your speakers.

Key considerations for speaker hire

For your audience, distance from the speakers is a critical factor. If they’re too far, the sound quality may be poor, while having your speakers within your crowd may mean the volume is too loud when close and it could also obscure the view of the speakers or performers.

If you are hosting a smaller event and have a more restricted space, good options to consider are floor speakers or table-top speakers. Additionally, in smaller spaces, if you use just one speaker for your event it can create feedback – the loud ringing noise when there’s too much gain.

Keep your speakers 30-45cm apart if they’re mounted on stands or 1.5m apart if they’re floor columns. This ensures that all frequencies reach every listener in the room and the sound is balanced.

Some other key factors when positioning your speakers:

  • Place microphones behind the speakers, with enough space between mic and speakers.

  • Don’t place them in corners or next to walls.

  • Place them higher for better sound dispersion.

  • In big spaces, place your speakers diagonally to cover more area.

  • In an echoey venue, position your speakers high and angled down.

If you already own good-quality speakers, you might be wondering why you should hire speakers for your event. Hiring speakers from a company like Event Production Services will ensure you have top-of-the-line products that are right for the venue and at an affordable price. Purchasing a good speaker system is costly and, as technology continues to evolve, it can be expensive to stay up to date with the latest speakers available on the market.

Speakers that are suitable for events like weddings, parties, or conferences are built to be robust and they can handle some knocks. Speakers that are designed for home use can be damaged more easily, even if they are good quality.
