Portable Public Address System (Portable PA System)
A portable sound system means that everything you will need is already built into the speaker system. Most portable PA systems contain battery power, wireless microphone, built in mixer and amplifier. Portable PA systems should provide a variety of inputs, such as microphone input, line input, Bluetooth and/or CD/MP3 player.
Some larger portable PA systems do require mains power, so considering the environment in which the PA system will be used is essential. For example, wedding celebrants commonly use battery powered portable PA systems to allow for use in remote locations (Eg. beach wedding). Other applications of a portable public address system may include solo / duo performers, school sports days, live events, corporate events, mobile DJ’s and community events.
Portable PA systems can be surprisingly good these days, with a strong focus on speech intelligibility and a full range of sound which provides better music response. A portable PA system can provide good quality sound, allows you to set up and tear down quickly without involving cables (trip hazards), and provide professional quality sound without expending too much effort or cost. Because of this low cost entry point, the number of applications for use can increase easily, ensuring a return on investment when purchasing a portable PA system.
