Agitprop, Part 10
Portable PA systems, for 200
people and for 2000 people
Sound Engineer
and System
Wal Hannington, writing a
long time ago, pointed out that a sound system that does not work, is a curse.
The Mipro range gives
compact, robust, portable public address with wireless microphones at a
reasonable price, if that is what people want. It is still not foolproof. You
should always test the system and keep checking that it is working.
It is not the case that an
audience will always let the platform know when they cannot hear.
Checks should be made with
every speaker from all parts of the audience, more than once in every speaker’s
set.
More affordable systems
The second illustration is of
systems on offer from a shop in Fordsburg, Johannesburg. The small Public
Address is the best value at R438 including FM radio.
If a branch can have its own
equipment of this kind then it will be able to get on with its work without
waiting for borrowed equipment. The 5 Core prices are:
PA
Portable, recharcheable 35W (loud) Public Address system, with wireless microphone.
Plays music from a USB port and has a built-in FM radio receiver: R438.
This PA equipment will do everything you need for meetings and functions.
Megaphone

Other models are available.
Loudhailer
Car Loudhailer speakers, R150 or less (each). Separate amplifier, R325.
