Whether you’re planning a wedding, corporate function, or outdoor concert, sound can make or break your event. Clear, balanced audio ensures your guests enjoy every moment, from heartfelt speeches to live performances.
At Truss Wave Events, we know that every venue and event type demands a unique sound setup. This guide will help you understand how to choose the best sound system for your event in Kenya, so you can create an unforgettable experience.
1. Understand Your Event Type and Audience Size
Start by defining your event’s needs.
-
Small indoor events (20–100 guests): Ideal for birthday parties, seminars, or product launches. Portable PA systems or powered speakers work best.
-
Medium-sized events (100–500 guests): Use subwoofers and multiple speakers for clear coverage.
-
Large outdoor events (500+ guests): Go for line arrays, full-range speakers, and professional mixing equipment for balanced, high-volume sound.
2. Choose Between Active and Passive Speakers
There are two main types of sound systems:
-
Active (Powered) Speakers — have built-in amplifiers, easy to set up, great for small to medium events.
-
Passive Speakers — require external amplifiers and sound engineers but offer more control and scalability for large setups.
At Truss Wave Events, we provide both and our technicians can help you pick the right system depending on your event type and budget.
3. Don’t Forget the Mixers and Microphones
Sound clarity depends not only on speakers but also on the right mixers and microphones.
-
Mixers: Balance the volume of multiple inputs (music, mics, instruments).
-
Wireless Microphones: Offer mobility for MCs or performers.
-
Lapel Mics: Perfect for conferences or church services.
Our team ensures all equipment is professionally balanced to deliver crisp, feedback-free sound every time.
4. Combine Sound with Lighting for Maximum Impact
Lighting sets the mood and complements great sound.
-
Stage Lighting: Enhances focus on performers or speakers.
-
Uplighting: Adds color and ambiance to your venue.
-
Moving Heads & LED Effects: Ideal for concerts or weddings with dance floors.
