OUR SOUND AND LIGHTING PACKAGES:

The PREMIER package is our small, yet surprisingly powerful sound system. A QSC amplifier, Yorkville Elite subwoofer and EV speakers deliver over 1,600 watts of great sound in a small package! Our mini light show splashes the dance floor with brilliant color with five different effects without taking-up a lot of room. If you have a smaller group up to 250 people, this system was designed for you!  (Note the actual on-the-job photo!)

The PREMIER PLUS package packs a lot of power into a small package!  It delivers all of the sound power of our large "Flagship" system, but won’t crowd your dance floor. Crown and Mackie amplifiers deliver over 2,000 watts of power to EV high-end speakers and EV Eliminator subwoofers. A digital sampler allows a bit of artistry and wild music mixes!  All this is topped-off with our mini light show for a complete sound & lighting tour de force!  If you have a larger group (over 250), need to save room and a few bucks without sacrificing quality, this package is your best choice!

Our FLAGSHIP package is our top-of-the line, no-holds-barred, custom made DJ system with almost every "bell and whistle" available!  All popular digital formats can be played along with optional turntables, and even has a beat box to create unique music mixes and pump-up a wimpy rhythm track. This system can fill a stage, so even guests who prefer bands won’t be disappointed!  This is all topped-off with our BEST light show which includes the standard genuine glass mirror ball along with modern lighting effects such as a beamer, strobe and line dancer, but also a full suite of intelligent lighting!  Yes, Stu can bring the excitement of a nightclub to your event!  This system was designed to impress – your ears, your eyes, your guests AND even other DJs -- making it the envy of the industry!  If you require only the best, then you require this system!

Our CEREMONY PACKAGE is the perfect answer to the question; "What are we going to do about the sound for our wedding ceremony?"  It is an ultra-small console with a mere 20 X 20 inch footprint.  Designed to blend-in to the background while putting the sounds of your ceremony upfront!  A wide-field microphone will pick-up your pastor or minister as well as your vows, so everyone can participate.  We can also supply several separate mics for soloists, readings or other needs.  (Up to five mics total!)  Indoors or out, this is THE solution for your wedding ceremony needs!

 

 SYSTEM COMPONENTS


Unless you’re a DJ or musician, you might ask yourself what all of these brand names mean and what are the real differences between the equipment that make-up our sound systems. Because sound is our bottom line, we take great care and consideration where our gear is concerned!  Here’s a "guided tour" of what we use, and why we use it.

EV Speakers A sound system is only as good as it’s speakers, and we’ve chosen the best!  Electro Voice is the cornerstone of many big name acts (look for the distinctive EV logo the next time you’re at a concert). Despite their small size, they can produce in excess of 120 dB at full power (don’t worry, we’ve never needed it all). "Constant Directivity" technology assures clean sound from the stage to the back of the room.  Rugged, reliable and accurate.

EV Eliminator SubwoofersNow that you're familiar with EV, get to know their no-compromise subwoofers; the Eliminator.  Each cabinet has an 18" driver and is optimized for throw, putting the bass out on the dancefloor where it's needed.  These are the cure for wimpy bass!

Yorkville SubwooferProviding the BOOM for our Premier system is the Yorkville Elite sub.  It delivers 700 Watts of  deep-down bass that is hard to believe comes out of such a small box!  Twin acoustically coupled 10" drivers deliver the punch of a 20" bass speaker!  Ladies better hold down their skirts in front of this bad boy!

Crown Amplifiers. For over 45 years Crown has been making reliable and remarkably accurate amplifiers. As with EV speakers, Crown is the power behind many big name touring acts as well as nightclubs, lecture halls and churches. Their clean sound and rugged reliability make Crown the power behind "Stu & His Crew" as well!

Mackie AmplifiersWell known for their studio mixers, Mackie brings the same bulletproof reliability and performance to the amplifier arena.  Built like a tank and yet able to deliver recording studio sound, this amp will satisfy the most discerning listeners.

QSC Amplifiers. Another big name in club and studio amps is QSC.  We've just added one of their newest, hottest amplifiers to provide the muscle behind our Premier system's main speakers.  Small does NOT mean wimpy!  This amp does not have to be loud to be heard.  Smooth, musical and accurate, this amp has to be heard to be believed.

Rane and Numark Mixers. The heart of our flagship sound system is the Rane MP-24, a long-time industry standard mixer used in the majority of nightclubs around the country.  Again, reliability and great sound are why this mixer is the control center of our best system.  Numark is also well known to DJs everywhere for their crystal clear sound and no compromise features.  Ours has a built in sampler for some wild effects!  Often imitated but seldom duplicated, the Numark DM 1975 is the nucleus of our Premier and Premier Plus systems.

Cortex HDC-1000 Digital Media PlayerNo CDs.  No laptops.  Just pure sound!  Brand new for 2007, Stu has replaced his huge mobile CD library with a full terabyte of high-quality digital music files!  No computer to crash, no CD to skip, no laptop or iPod that can get stolen.  It's the 21st Century way that professionals play music!  Same huge library.  Same sound quality.  Less bulk!

Technics Turntables.  Some music requires manipulation; a bit of artistry. That’s why we have a pair of the legendary Technics 1200 MK II turntables.  Yet another industry standard, used by radio stations and nightclubs world wide, you’ve seen these in action if you’ve seen Spinderella (Salt-N-Pepa), Run-D.M.C., Grandmaster Flash, or if you’ve attended a rave.  Real DJ’s have turntables, and Stu has the best!  A popular option at proms, graduation and block parties.

Sennheiser Studio Mic.  Stu's microphone of choice is the amazing Sennheiser MD 421II, used by recording studios and radio stations for over 35 years, it is yet another industry standard!  You hear this workhorse every day being used by your favorite broadcasters.  Now you can hear the same quality at your special event!

Shure and Samson Wireless Mics.  The sound quality and clarity of a corded mic, with the ability to move around up to 1000 feet away from the DJ booth are easily delivered by our Sure and Samson wireless mic systems.  These are used every day by radio stations, TV productions and live theater.  Multi-channels mean that we always have a clear one -- even in a facility with multiple bands and DJs all using wireless!


LIGHTING EQUIPMENT

Lighting: Our "small but mighty" Mini Light Show.  A lot of light in a small package! It includes:

Starball (An updated version of a mirror ball provides atmosphere!)
Rainbow 250 (An intelligent color changer that bathes the dancefloor in washes of rich color.)
Strobe (The Power Flash 750 produces a true, stop-motion effect.  Don't worry -- we won't overuse it!)
Mushroom (Sends multi-colored beams dancing to the beat all over the room!)
Mini-starballs (Even more atmosphere!  Up to five can be set up for larger rooms.) [Not shown]
Moonbeams (Crossed sprays of moonlight slowly spinning.) [Not shown]

 


Lighting: Our Flagship Light Show.  Mounted on a professional eight foot lighting truss (arch), it includes:

Mirror ball (The old favorite, a real glass ball augmented by twin mini-starballs at table height.  Two more large starballs can be added for larger events!)
Mega-Strobe (Adjustable strobe light can cover large or small areas.)
Line Dancer (900 watts of dancing "pick-up sticks." They dance everywhere!.)
Beamer (Multi-colored beams that leapfrog to the beat.)

NEW INTELLEGENT LIGHTING EFFECTS:
Mighty Scans (Moving head, computer controlled scanners that create wild, club style effects!)
Color Changers (More than a pinspot, these can change color and work in unison with the scanners!)
These eight fixtures can move and change color together in infinite combinations, creating a fun, high-energy atmosphere!
