When renting a Bee Herd PA package and a Bee Herd Mixer Package, all needed cables to connect between them will be provided at no additional cost and usually if you are connecting to other equipment, needed cables are provided at no additional charge, but a nominal fee may be applied at our discretion. All speaker stands, racks, power cables (with a minimum of 25 ft. extension) and required accessories are included. Prcies are per day rental prices.
Premium PA Package - Maximum Sound Quality and Volume This system is appropriate for crowds up to 1000 for indoor music programs depending on content and sound level expectations. It also has the best sound quality of any Bee Herd system.
Value PA Package - Good Sound Quality and Volume This system is appropriate for crowds up to about 300. The Yamaha Club series speakers are one of the most popular PA speaker series ever made. The mains have been upgraded with Eminence and Selenium drivers.
Plug & Play PA Package - Excellent Sound Quality and Volume
This system is versatile and is positioned between the SRX and YAMAHA
CLUB PA packages for both sound quality and volume. Because the
amplifier and a mixer unit is built into the speaker cabinet, all you
usually need to add is your input source whether it be a microphone, an iPod
or a DJ mixer. A mixer package might still be preferred or even
necessary depending on the level of control and number of inputs you
need. Subject to availability, these speakers can be paired with a
subwoofer from another package. Even without a subwoofer, the K10 has
very respectable bass due to its DEEP mode.
Plug & Play Mini PA Package - Excellent Sound Quality and Volume Same as above but with only one K10 speaker. This is a loud speaker and many times even with 100-200 people depending on circumstances this might be an appropriate option, especially indoors or for spoken presentations. Please inquire if you are unsure.
Powered Mixer + Speakers - Entry Level, Lower Volume
This system is normally not recommended for musical programs other than light background music. It is primarily a PA system for smaller spoken word events. It has four input channels and is very easy to operate. For lower volume, budget, live music purposes, these may be used as stage monitors.
Small Concert Mixer - Excellent Sound Quality - 16 Ch. This mixer is one of the best small format concert mixers. Allen & Heath's reputation is excellent and this mixer is very versatile allowing many possible configurations. It has a great signal to noise ratio and 0.004% total harmonic distortion (THD). It provides Stereo and Summed Mono outputs, FX, six aux sends and many other features. For greater detail, see Allen & Heath's website.
High Quality Analog 2-channel DJ Mixer This mixer is designed with the DJ in mind and includes 2 input channels plus a microphone channel. Ecler is a well respected brand known for ease of use and durability as well as excellent control layout.
