How To Choose The Perfect P.A System For An Event In Kenya

When planning for an event that requires a public address system , it is paramount that you get your cards right . The market right now is pretty "saturated" and any miscalculated decision could bring an unwanted result . Usually , the kind of P.a system you settle on ( or will be otherwise advised) will depend on several factors. The main factor is Your size of audience  .


How many people do you hope to host in your event ? A small number usually means less no. of speakers , for instance, or moderately powerful sound . The opposite is true . Knowing your audience in advance will help make things easier for not only you but also the provider you'll be hiring . Let's now look at the steps you need to follow to narrow down to the right P.A System for your event in Kenya.

1.Inquire from friends

If you're planning for a wedding , you can consider asking a friend or relative who has done a wedding in recent times whether they can recommend their sound provider . Word of mouth still works and can help you avoid the "bad".

2.Search online

Thanks to the advancement in the world of Internet , you can easily get a list of service providers with a simple search . Websites such as OLX, PigiaMe and Biashara.co.ke have hundreds of ads which you can have a look at . Alternatively , do a quick Google search with terms such as "P.A System for Hire in Kenya" and you are sure to get results . Even a search on social media platforms such as Facebook , Twitter and Instagram can be helpful.

3. Give them a call

Most ads & websites , if not all of them, posted by P.A system providers in Kenya will usually have contact information . The minimum is a  Telephone number but you can also get their Address , Email or even Live Chat . Proceed to give them a call and ask pointed questions such as:

• What kind of set-up do you offer?
• What are your charges?
• Do you have references/testimonials?

This also presents an opportunity for the provider to ask questions so that they can help you decide on the best package.

4.Meet them

If possible , you may want to meet with the provider beforehand  to ask other questions or even have a look at their systems. You can request them to come to the site of your event or meet at a public place . This will help you get a better understanding of the set-up and ultimately help you make an informed decision . Do not be quick to settle on someone though .

NB: In case you're unable to have an initial meeting , consider requesting for photos/video recording . You can also visit the website or Social Media Page of the provider you are considering for your event to get a feel of what they offer .

5.Price is not everything

It can be tempting to settle on the provider who has the lowest rates , but it could prove a bad choice. Quality should be your priority . Remember the old adage "You always get what you pay for" . The trick here is to factor in other things and then narrow down to a provider who fits in your budget .
