BUYING GUIDE - AMPLIFIERS


This is a very general overview of amplifier manufacturers.  Each venue and non-powered speaker system will need a particular amplifier with the right specs.  You really need to contact us, or a legitimate live sound contracting company.  

So with that said:
  • Crown
  • Lab Gruppen
  • Crest
  • QSC
  • Yamaha
  • Peavey​
  • ​Powersoft



**Just So You Know - I am not in any way affiliated with any companies mentioned.  My selections on what the best gear is, is from direct personal experience with said items.  I have nothing to gain by recommending any piece of gear, other than the piece of mind knowing you'll be getting reliable stuff that works.
