Description
The S2 Medium Event Sound package is our standard sound system for small to medium events. It is designed for speeches, ceremonies, panel discussions, receptions, school events, community gatherings, and other events that need more coverage and flexibility than a basic single-speaker setup.
This package starts with a complete two-speaker PA system and includes the core accessories most events need by default. Inside the booking flow, you can choose your included microphones and stands, then add upgrades like longer cable runs, wireless microphones, a stage snake, or a digital mixer when the event calls for more capability.

Planning notes
- This package is intended to be flexible and can be configured for either spoken-word or light music playback events.
- If your event is outdoors and does not have reliable power, add one of our generator packages as a related item.
- If your event needs lighting, wireless microphones, or projection, those can be added as related services or package upgrades.
- If your event is a live band, larger concert, or multi-input production, you will probably want a larger sound system or a quoted event package.
If you need something slightly different, use the order notes at checkout or contact us before booking.
We would rather help you choose the right setup than have you rent the wrong one.
