FROM THE HIRE STOCK

Here comes our latest entry in our From the Hire Stock feature.

ADASTRA BP5V-B & BP6V-B

The amazing little weatherproof speakers are rugged and durable. We have stock of both the 5.25” and 6.5” versions of these little beauties.

Featuring the ability to run either in 8ohm or 100v line mode these passive speakers offer amazing flexibility in systems. The durability of these units is fantastic, we put 20 of the BP6V-B outside for 8 weeks last winter in Newcastle and all of them survived that stint and came back in working order.

An excellent unit for creating ambient sound or an immersive soundscape both indoors and out.

We have stock on the shelves ready for hire. If you think these speakers would be perfect for your project let us know, get in contact and let us see what we can do.

That’s another year completed at the Royal Highland Show for Mackie's Ice Cream & Chocolate stand installation and derig by ourselves. Wonderful to work with them again. Not bad for an 8yr old exhibition stand.
