Planning an event and need clear, reliable sound? We have a vast array of microphone hire options available across Sydney & Melbourne. No matter what style or brand you are seeking, there is a suitable microphone for any application in our range.
Our customer service team can provide expert advice on the best microphone options for conferences, annual meetings, speeches, school or sporting presentations and much more.
Select from our corded or wireless options:
Corded Microphone Hire: Ideal for stationary use, offering reliable sound quality within a 2-3 metre range.
Wireless Microphone Hire: Perfect for dynamic presentations and speeches, allowing movement up to 10-20 metres. We offer standard wireless microphones.
To complete your setup, microphones must be used with a speaker system. For single microphone needs, we can often connect directly to a speaker, however with multiple microphone use, our mixer is required.
Microphone Hire Tips
When using a microphone, there are some simple tips to ensure things go smoothly.
- Never stand directly in front of the speaker with a microphone as this will pick up feedback and create a loud screeching noise.
- If you are using multiple microphones, it is best to keep the microphones and guests using them at least 1.5m apart, as this could also cause feedback.
- Finally, if using a wireless microphone, make sure you turn it off when done so you don’t burn out the battery.
- If you are hiring a microphone for an event with speakers who do not have experience using a microphone before, it is a good idea to practice with them beforehand so they can get a feel of how close to speak into the microphone, how loud they should talk and which buttons to press to turn it on/off.
We do have an all in one portable speaker system with a microphone that is battery powered. This is great for small outdoor events or outdoor presentations. No power is needed and it is ready to go, check out the portable speaker in the Audio Hire section.
