Company ...

Loud and Clear's speciality is providing professional audio solutions for theatre and corporate events. We provide a complete service including production design, hire and operation of all equipment for any production.

From our warehouse in the middle of Artarmon just north of the centre of Sydney we also sell and install high quality audio equipment from a large range of suppliers.

In 2005 we were appointed the Australian distributor for Alcons Audio of The Netherlands, a new and exciting range of very high quality speakers and amplifiers.

Sound for musicals is one of the most interesting areas in audio
because of the mix of skills needed.

Live musical theatre combines the hidden complexities of radio mics, stage mics, musicians, sound effects, and performers, often in rooms not designed for live music.

 

History

Loud and Clear was formed in 1990 to provide better services to the theatrical societies in Sydney's North. From our first productions for Warringah Musical Society at Glen Street Theatre we began to develop a unique approach to designing quality audio on a budget, and we now work for a large number of theatrical and corporate clients from the southern highlands to the blue mountains to the central coast.
