When planning an event, don’t overlook the sound system! One of the biggest mistakes organizations make is not securing a proper sound system. A benefit auction is different from other events because at a benefit auction, attendees are schmoozing and socializing. You need a benefit auction quality surround sound system! The majority of commercial sound systems are single sided sound (setup along one side of the room – usually the front). In order for the people in the back to hear, volume must be increased to a sound level that becomes deafening for those in the front of the room – not a good idea – typically VIP guests are seated in the front of the room! If the volume is adjusted to satisfy those in the front, then the guests in the back cannot hear. As for using the hotel’s system, think again. Most hotel sound systems use small speakers built into the ceiling. These small speakers are usually of poor quality and often distort when the volume is raised high enough to be heard in a room packed full of people.

Most organizations work an entire year to create one magical evening. Don’t allow all of your efforts to be wasted because your audience is unable to clearly hear and understand the auctioneer.

Benefit Bidding offers three sound systems including three powerful systems with two speakers per system. These systems can be connected wirelessly or by cables to create a system large enough to handle a very large benefit auction. Whatever size audience or event venue, Benefit Bidding has the sound system and equipment necessary.
