Topic: Hire or Purchasing Speakers

I need to hire or purchase speakers for a party type event coming up,

anybody know of any good CHEAP places to hire 2x 150w speakers + amp for under or around $100?

Or anybody know of a decent brand of speakers that i can purchase? recommendations etc. Also recommend outlets to shop around at? Ebay seems to have alot of "dodgy" no brand speakers (i assume by the price they are going at), any brands to steer clear from will be appreciated also.

Thanks in advance.

The fender portible kits are the win if you can find one. Solid, designed to be moved and used by noobs.

AVI Corp

There is no website, but they will hire you decent stuff at a good price

Also try IJS, thought id mention them before SquarkyD does :P

Brisbane sound are always a little more expensive, but youll get a good deal from either one of those companys

Amp to match

I think about $50 per night from BJ's Sound and Lighting, Fortitude Valley.

IJS has quality gear, and for good reason, considering a lot of stacks at BDO, livid and other festivals come from IJS

I didnt know BJs was still going. I did some work with a guy from there aaggeeeesss ago.

yeah BJ's somehow cornered the karakoie and low end install market, doin well from it which is suprising.

diese1 if you want more info call up and speak to hire 3852 2646 - i'm not around for another week so best deal with them direct, tell them what you need and they'll tell you which gear suits best.
