A stage setup can include PA speakers, subwoofers, microphones, mixing consoles, amplifiers, stage monitors, lighting fixtures, lighting control, stands, cabling and other equipment depending on the venue and type of performance.

What type of PA system do I need for my venue or event?

The right PA system depends on factors such as audience size, venue layout, whether the event is indoors or outdoors and the type of performance. Professional system design helps ensure the right balance of power, coverage and clarity.

Active speakers have amplification built into the speaker, while passive speakers require external amplification. Both can be used in professional applications, with the best option depending on the size, configuration and requirements of the system.
