Flying speakers is just hanging them in the air, but how do we get them up there? In fact, how do we get the necessary equipment to hang them up in roof anyway? How do we make sure that they’re pointing at the right angles and at the right height? Who even decided what the right height was. Where do the cables go? In larger venues speakers are almost always suspended from the roof so we’re going to look at why that as and step by step how we get them up there. Before I hung a few line arrays I always wondered how it happened, now that I’ve done it a few times I thought I’d let yo know what I know, so that if you’re thinking about doing it, you know what to expect.

Dont mess about without training.

You always need a qualified rigger to assess safety.

Always consult manufacturers instructions.
