Sound Reinforcement Support

Hammster Wheel can provide small "live sound" support options for your event.    We would provide the gear and technician to run it.    We leave the big festival events to the larger companies, but we can help smaller events at much more economical prices.  Each situation is handled individually based upon event needs and location, and is quoted individually.    Please drop us an email at info@hammsterwheel.com to see if we can save you some money.

Here is a list of what we currently have available:
