Storing your PA System

We all know the importance of using our PA System correctly to get the best sound, but the equally important topic of storing a PA correctly is often overlooked and can seriously compromise your sound if a few common sense guidelines are not observed. Adhere to the following simple tips and your system will always be stored, and therefore sound, at it’s best!

• Avoid cold and damp conditions
• Damp reduces mid and top from speakers, shortens cone life
• Damp degrades wooden cabs whether chip, MDF or ply
• Damp can cause short circuits and corrosion in electronics
• Cold amps will cause condensation when placed in a warmer room ; allow electronics to warm up and dry out before switch on
• Never expose amps or speakers to direct rain, snow, mist or fog, or to high humidity.
• Avoid use near water and outdoors unless specifically designed for outdoor use.
• Don’t tie knots in your cables, get some re-usable cable ties
