Marriage and Civil Service celebrants need a reliable, lightweight, wireless P.A. system with crystal clear output which will contribute to the professionalism of the ceremony. Chiayo battery-powered PAs (in particulcar the Focus 505) will satisfy the most exacting requirements.
By far the most popular portable PA system for marriage celebrants is the Chiayo Focus 505. The beauty of this unit is its powerful output when compared to its light weight. The Focus weighs from 5.5kgs to 6.5kgs depending on options fitted, yet still outputs an impressive 27 watts RMS. That is enough to handle the duties at a small to medium size service of up to 100 people. The output can be easily doubled by adding a matching powered extension speaker - giving a total of 54 watts RMS in two easy-to-carry units. All Chiayo Focus P.A. units come complete with built-in (but easily replaceable) rechargeable battery.
Please feel free to email us or ring for some no-obligation advice on which PA system suits your needs.
With the Focus 505 portable PA range, Chiayo now delivers a very versatile portable PA sound system that is just 313mmx 220mm (Go on, measure it! That's the same size as a sheet of A4 paper!!), and weighing less than 5.5KG (12lbs). With built-in rechargeable battery, the Focus is ideal for club meetings, larger class-rooms etc, and are very popular with Marriage Celebrants, nursing homes etc. The Focus outputs a punchy 27 watts RMS which belies its small size, and in its basic form includes a hand-held plug-in microphone. Picture shows the optional remote-controlled CD/MP3 player with USB2 port.
