Rent the rig.
Not the storage unit.
Most of our customers need a d&b line array four times a year. Owning one costs $60,000 and a truck; renting one costs a Tuesday. We keep road-ready inventory in three cities, we test every channel before it leaves the shop, and we tell you what's actually on the shelf that week instead of taking the order and sorting it out later.
- Live shelf counts per city
- Bench-tested every time

01The catalogue
Six departments, three buildings
Everything on this site is gear we physically own. If it's listed, it's on a shelf in one of our three shops — and the product page will tell you which one, for the exact dates you need it.
PA & Speakers
Line array, point source, and subs. If you tell us the room and the head count we'll tell you which of these is the honest answer.
3 packages · from $165/day
Consoles
Digital desks with the show files we've already built for the rooms in each city. Ask and we'll load one before you pick up.
2 packages · from $195/day
Microphones
Wireless packages coordinated for your date and your zip code, plus the wired workhorses every input list needs.
3 packages · from $210/day
Lighting
Moving heads, wash bars, and control. Everything patches on sACN and ships with the fixture profiles already loaded.
1 package · from $395/day
Backline
Amps, keys, and drums that get treated like instruments rather than freight. Heaviest in Nashville, by a wide margin.
1 package · from $275/day
Power & Cable
Distro, feeder, and the boring copper that decides whether the rest of this list works. Never an afterthought on our quotes.
1 package · from $235/day

03Why rent
Owning gear is a storage problem
Ninety percent of the equipment on this page spends most of its life not being used. That's fine when it's ours and terrible when it's yours.
You need it four times a year
A pair of powered subs sits in a storage unit for 361 days and costs you rent on both. Renting the right box for the right room beats owning the wrong box for a decade, and you never eat the depreciation when the manufacturer ships a new revision.
Every channel gets tested
Nothing leaves the bay without a bench pass: every input, every output, every cable in the case. If a wedge crackles on the test rig it does not go on your truck — we swap it and note it in your order before you drive over.
We tell you what's actually there
The shelf count on this site is the shelf count in the building. If Denver has one console left for your week it says one, not 'available'. You will never get the call two days out telling you it went somewhere else.
Techs who have done your gig
The people packing your case have mixed the same room you're walking into. Ask about the load-in at Mohawk or the power at Red Rocks and you get an answer, not a shrug and a rental agreement.
04How rental works
Four steps, no surprises
The whole process, including the parts other rental houses leave vague until you're standing in the bay.
- 01
Pick your dates
Choose the range you actually need the gear, including load-in and load-out days. Pricing drops to the weekly rate at four days and again at fourteen.
- 02
Check the shelf
Every product page shows unit counts per city for the exact range you picked. If Austin has it and Denver doesn't, you'll see that before you commit.
- 03
Pickup or delivery
Grab it from the bay yourself, or we roll it to the venue inside the delivery radius. Delivery includes load-in to the dock, not up three flights.
- 04
Return, no drama
Back by 6pm on the return date. Normal road wear is expected and free; we only invoice for genuine damage, and we show you the bench photos when we do.
05The buildings
Three shops, different personalities
Each one grew around what its city actually books. Worth knowing before you pick a pickup point — and worth calling if the shop you want is short.
