  • Our funeral PA systems are versatile and can be used in a variety of settings. They’re perfect for microphones for speeches or readings, playing music during the service, or relaying sound to overflow areas such as outdoor spaces or separate rooms. While ideal for churches and chapels, our systems also work in halls, marquees, or any venue where clear, professional audio is needed. This ensures that every word and every tribute is heard by all attendees, no matter the location.

  • With Funeral AV, you simply tell us which music you’d like for the service. We’ll handle the rest — sourcing the tracks from the client or Apple Music and preparing them on our professional systems so they play perfectly on cue

  • While it’s possible, most church sound systems are outdated or don’t perform well. Microphones often give feedback, sound cues can be missed, and music sometimes doesn’t play at all.

    In our experience, when live streaming funerals, the Church people using only ‘church equipment’, music or audio problems occur in around 80% of services and it’s all a bit of a panic.

    Customer blue tooth kit goes very badly way too often. Not connecting, then dis connecting through the service, then not playing when asked, then playing the next track straight after when it shouldn’t. We have see and heard it all. Like we said 80% of the time its goes wrong for them.

    Our PA systems and professional team ensure everything works smoothly, so every speech, hymn, and tribute is heard clearly. Funeral PA System Hire from Funeral AV
