ace vintage systems at glastonbury
If you were one of the tens of thousands to visit Glastonbury last year
you may have spotted in the Orange 
Chill N' Charge area a vintage Martin Audio system supplied by us.
The system was part of Glastonbury's 40th anniversary celebrations.

Dave Martin was a pioneer of large PA Systems and the classic horn loaded
speakers he designed in the 70's and 80's are regarded as some of the
finest ever made. Over the last 25 years we have built one of the largest
inventories of original Martin speakers in the country.
Our standard hire system is shown in the diagram [below] and comprises
18 Martin Audio 215MkIII Bass Bins, 12 Martin Audio Phillishaves and 6
JBL Acoustic Lenses. We supply this with BGW GTA and 750G amplifiers as
a complete 'racks and stacks' system.
It seems that many engineers are now seeking a vintage sound out on tour
now as well as in the studio and we also get inquiries from film and video
producers seeking the vintage look.
Here we have a unique sound system ideal for audiences up to 5000 or more...
perfect for the 2012 festival season!
Please feel free to contact us for further details.
