Quality speakers and a good amplifier make songs sound like the original artists singing live. My speakers are USA made Peavey rated at 800W rms (peak 1400W) driven by a UK made McGreagor 1600W rms stereo power amp. They produce crystal clear sound that will cope with audiences of up to 350 people.
To enhance the mood I use enough disco lighting to project colourful patterns on the ceiling, walls and dance floor of a very large hall.
I do not use smoke/haze unless requested and also require permission from the venue management.
These photographs show my twin cd players, mixer, laptop, speakers and disco lighting.
