I see the club is advertising for local companies who can help with the installation of a new PA system, or at least people who can put them in touch with people with the correct skill sets.

Obviously this improvement has been needed for many years, and will be money well spent whether we stay at BP or not.

I was wondering in this day and age whether a full hardwired system is necessary? In domestic settings things have moved on apace since we all had 6-foot speakers in the corner of the room, so I wondered if it was more a technology issue, or whether it means miles of new cabling etc.

What would be the most cost-effective methods for the club - do we have any speaker systems experts amongst us??

I'm not an expert by any means but I do know that wireless transmission of sound using a system like bluetooth is hampered by cost over any distances further than your average living room. There is nothin quite like good quality cabling, trusted and known technology. No way around it that I know

I wonder if this request has anything to do with the B Corps stuff, keeping business and engagement in the local community etc ?
