PA Systems (Public Address) - IP & Analogue

The unique features of PA systems are that no two are alike. While many manufactures might make every component that a system's needs, it is common to mix and match components from different manufacturers.

What is a Public Address System?

One or more speakers designed to replicate audio or speech to a group of people qualifies as a PA system. There are many types of PA systems that are best suited for events, concerts or school environments.

Speakers

PA Speakers come in countless different shapes and sizes. Each speaker serves a different function within the system, but each depends on the other.

  • Create the bulk of the PA's sound.

  • Main speakers are usually mounted on walls in rooms or externally in larger outdoor areas.

  • Sized between 10"-15" with a smaller tweeter speaker above the woofer.

Amplifiers

PA speakers can either be passive or active. Amplifiers convert the line-level signal of the mixer to a level where it can drive the speaker to the necessary volume.

Active Speakers

  • Active Speakers have an internal amplifier of their own.

Passive Speakers

  • Passive speakers have no internal amplifier and require an external amplifier.

  • Trusting the entirety of the system's sound to one component.
