No matter what conference, event or concert you attend, the one thing that stands out is the quality of the sound. Here at AV Aids and Visuals, we pride ourselves on giving the best of our equipment and time to every business or event organiser who needs it.

The audio visual equipment we offer for sound hire has an extensive range to choose from. Based in Durban, with access to many surrounding areas, we cater to an array of meetings and functions. Our products are reliable, efficient and easy to use, as well as giving you the best price, making us the number one service in the city.

Our sound hire is open, but not limited to, projectors, microphones, PA systems, projection and plasma screens as well as laptops. Each product is set up, run and processed by a professional expert team that leaves the equipment with instructions on how to use it. Once you have finished with your conference, meeting or presentation, we come pick it up and dismantle it for you, no hassle, and no stress.

Not only do we hire our sound and visual systems out, we also advise or consult our clients on what they need and how it will fit into their budget or custom requirements for each meeting. If you don’t feel comfortable in handling the systems on your own, you can hire a technical expert to stay with you and assist in the process throughout the day.

Professional sound hire is not even an option but a necessity. With more and more international acts making South Africa a more popular destination for world-class events, the standards of excellence have been raised. If you are going to invest in the venue, marketing, catering and the talented speakers for your event, why would you skimp on the sound requirements?

There are few things that can ruin the atmosphere of an event, and throw your present of his or her game as effectively as poor sound. It can take your audience out of the sales pitch, it can make a presentation fall flat on its face, or it can just smack of general unprofessionalism. With professional sound hire, the standard of your event is immediately raised.

Give Your Brand the Event It Deserves with Professional Sound Hire

Your brand deserves only the best. With professional sound solutions, you can take your company and reputation to the next level. Your attendees and delegates will leave with a favourable impression of the company, having enjoyed a professionally organised and executed event.

One of the benefits of hiring professional sound solutions is that you also get to benefit from the expertise and professionalism of the sound technician. You don’t have to fret about dealing with the complex equipment. These professionals know their jobs, and will use the technology and equipment available to create the professional effect your brand deserves. These are but a few of the many reasons why all events require professional sound solutions.

You wouldn’t expect your car to travel a million miles without some kind of maintenance or breakdown somewhere along the way right? So why should your audio visual equipment be any different? Sure they’re not running at 120 miles an hour, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t working hard all the time.

Most of us love cranking the volume all the way up, so much so that the bass vibrates inside your ribcage. What you don’t realise is the amount of strain being placed on all the tiny internal components, these vibrations must be shaking a few things around right? Not to mention the heat generated by projector lamps and all the other electrical bits and pieces. Combine this with dust – the scourge of every technician – and you’ve got a recipe for disaster.

At the end of the day, your audio visual equipment is built to perform, but if you don’t keep it clean and maintain it from time to time, it will inevitably fail you. If you’ve invested a large sum into your equipment it would be nothing short of disastrous to find your devices smoking, or simply not working.

Fear not! AV aids and visuals in Durban are equipped to not only maintain and service virtually every make and model of AV quipment under the sun, they are also equipped to repair all but the most devastating malfunctions and breakdowns. Sometimes a simple cleaning of the internal components is all that is needed to blast those jams again and again

In a world that is relying more and more on visual mediums to convey messages and ideas, videos and animated presentations are becoming the norm. This means that the manner in which we display and experience this is changing as well, becoming clearer, faster and even better than realistic. In the last 20 years TVs have gone from bulky CRT displays to expensive, short-lived plasma devices to LCD screens and the now popular LED displays.

Cue projectors.

The idea of projectors is nothing new, they’ve been around, seemingly, forever. When it comes to presenting a proposal or new ideas, or even team building and training videos, there is seldom a better option than a projector.

However, in recent years the technology involved in projecting images has improved ridiculously. Projectors are not only clearer than ever, there is even technology that makes the projected image a touch screen. PCMag has an awesome list of some of the best projectors available this season! Another great list is supplied by TechRadar, with a wide number of options.

One of the recurring themes with these devices is a simple one; you get what you pay for. Cheaper is not always better, despite the fact that you save money in the short term, you are almost guaranteed to spend more in the long run. Repairing or replacing projectors can cost a small fortune. While having this option is useful, which is why AV Aids and Visuals provides this service, it is not always the most cost-effective.

For reliable service and devices, you need look no further than AV Aids and Visuals!
