Kit that stays put, and works.
We design, supply and fit permanent sound, AV and WiFi systems for performance venues, offices, bars and restaurants, community buildings, churches and schools. Because we use this equipment at events every week, we can tell you what's good, what's overkill, and where to spend the budget.
How it works
Advice. We visit, listen to how the space is used and who'll be operating it, and suggest a system. Usually there's more than one option, at different budgets.
Supply. We've spent years building relationships with brands and dealers, so we can get a fair price on most event and AV equipment, from high-end brands to good budget options.
Fitting. We install it neatly and safely, work around your building (listed or not), and test it properly.
Aftercare. We train your team, leave clear instructions, and stay on the end of the phone if anything goes wrong.

Questions people ask
What kind of places do you install in?
Performance venues, offices, bars and restaurants, community halls, churches, cathedrals and schools. Everything from a background music system to a full stage PA and lighting rig.
Can you just sell us the equipment?
Yes. Tell us what you're after and we'll recommend kit we've used ourselves, and get you a competitive price through our suppliers. Fitting is optional.
Will you train our volunteers?
Yes. We show whoever will be using it how it works, and leave simple instructions for the people who weren't there.
What happens if something goes wrong later?
Our installs come with a warranty on our work, and we're a phone call away for support and callouts afterwards.
Can you upgrade what we already have?
Often, yes. Replacing a mixer or adding a stagebox, new microphones or better WiFi can transform an older system without starting again.
