The complete small PA rental kit — two active speakers, subwoofer, mixer and microphones, set up before the event starts.
A complete PA package for events of 50–150 people
Planning a wedding, birthday party, christening, small corporate event, or an acoustic showcase? You need a sound system that handles speech and music with equal confidence, sets up in under thirty minutes, and behaves predictably from the first toast to the last dance. Our rental PA bundles a pair of active 12″ full-range speakers, a Mackie Thump 115S subwoofer, a Yamaha MG12X analog mixer with effects, a wired Shure SM58S vocal microphone, an AKG WMS40 Mini Dual wireless set, plus stands, cabling, and accessories. The whole package, including delivery, is around 950 PLN — see the full price list for details.
Below is a component-by-component breakdown of what’s inside the package, why each piece is there, and how to get the best results from it on the day of the event.

Active 12″ full-range speakers — IGO SYSTEM SSP2112AU
Active 12″ iGO System SSP2112AU speaker — 175 W RMS / 350 W peak.
The two tops are the workhorses of the rig. Each cabinet delivers 175 W RMS / 350 W peak, with a 12″ woofer and a 1″ compression driver on a horn. Frequency response is 50 Hz – 18 kHz at -10 dB, sensitivity is 94 dB SPL @ 1W/1m, and each box weighs 14 kg in a 600 × 400 × 330 mm enclosure — easy for one person to lift onto a stand.
The back panel is well thought out for self-contained events: a MIC combo input (XLR + jack) with its own volume, a LINE input (XLR + RCA) with its own volume, a 2-band EQ (treble and bass, ±12 dB), and a built-in USB/SD/Bluetooth player with remote control. There is also a 6.3 mm LINE OUT and a Speakon socket labelled “8 ohm, max 175 W” for connecting an optional passive companion cabinet.
A few rules of thumb on the day. Place the tops on the included tripods with the tweeter at audience head height — ear level for a seated dinner, head level for a standing reception — and tilt them down by roughly 5–15°. Keep them clear of corners to avoid bass build-up, and aim for 2–4 m between left and right. The LINE OUT is intended for daisy-chaining another active speaker; do not chain two passive 8 ohm cabinets on the Speakon, as a 4 ohm load will damage the internal amp. Keep the input knobs below the 3 o’clock position to avoid clipping, and start every soundcheck with the EQ flat.
Subwoofer — Mackie Thump 115S
Mackie Thump 115S active 15″ subwoofer — 1300 W peak.
The Mackie Thump 115S adds the low end that turns a “speech and background music” PA into a system that can carry a dance floor. It’s a 15″ active bandpass sub with a 1300 W peak Class-D amplifier, an operating range of 36–180 Hz (-3 dB ~46–150 Hz), and up to 131 dB peak SPL. The cabinet is 470 × 457 × 584 mm, weighs 23.7 kg, and has an M20 pole-mount socket on top.
I/O is fully stereo: 2 × XLR inputs (A and B), 2 × XLR FULL RANGE outputs, and 2 × XLR HIGH PASS outputs. The HIGH PASS MODE rotary gives you four voicings: FLAT (natural), DEEP (boosted lows for EDM and hip-hop), PUNCH (maximum headroom and a tight kick — ideal for spoken word, conferences, acoustic acts and rock bands), and VARIABLE (a second knob lets you dial the crossover between 80 and 160 Hz per the Mackie manual; the silkscreen on your unit may show 60–160). A PHASE switch (normal/180°), a defeatable front LED, and a stereo/mono-sum FR OUTPUT round it out.
Place the sub on the floor between the two tops, on the audience centerline. Avoid corners: corner-loading can pile up 10–15 dB of low-mid bloom that no EQ will fix. If the bass feels weak from the audience position, flip the PHASE switch and walk the room — one position will almost always sound noticeably fuller.
Mixer — Yamaha MG12X
Yamaha MG12X — 12-channel analog mixer with D-PRE preamps and SPX effects.
The Yamaha MG12X is a 12-channel analog mixer with high-grade preamps and onboard effects. It offers six mono mic preamps using Yamaha’s D-PRE inverted-Darlington circuit (THD 0.005% @ +24 dBu, a wide flat response of +0.5/-1.5 dB from 20 Hz to 48 kHz), plus three stereo line inputs on channels 7/8, 9/10 and 11/12. Each of the four mono input channels has a 1-knob compressor that sweeps threshold, ratio, and auto make-up gain together — easy gain control for vocals and acoustic instruments.
The onboard SPX digital effects engine provides 24 fixed programs, including seven reverbs (Hall, Plate, Room and more), delays, and modulation effects. You also get global +48V phantom power, a PAD switch (-26 dB) on the mono inputs for hot sources, Group 1-2 plus stereo busses, and AUX1 and AUX2 sends (typically configured pre-fader for monitors and post-fader to the FX engine — confirm in the manual for your routing). Outputs are balanced XLR, with a headphone jack and built-in USB audio in/out (MG-XU variant).
Gain staging is the most important habit: set TRIM with PFL so the meter peaks around 0 dB, then bring the fader up, then the master. Only switch +48V on for condenser microphones — do not engage it for a dynamic mic like the SM58. Use the PAD on close-miked vocalists or anything otherwise pushing the preamp hard.
Microphones — Shure SM58S and AKG WMS40 Mini Dual
Shure SM58S — dynamic cardioid vocal microphone with on/off switch.
AKG WMS40 Mini Dual Vocal Set — wireless system with two handheld transmitters.
The wired Shure SM58S is the live-vocal standard for a reason. Dynamic cardioid pattern, 50 Hz – 15 kHz response, no phantom power required, tank build, and a signature presence peak that cuts through a busy mix. The cardioid pattern combined with that presence shape gives the SM58 best-in-class feedback resistance. Sing 5–10 cm from the grille and never cup the head, which collapses the polar pattern and invites feedback.
The AKG WMS40 Mini Dual Vocal Set adds two wireless handhelds and a dual receiver — ideal for a host plus a speaker, or two singers. It operates in the 863–865 MHz band, which is license-free in the EU under CEPT/ECC harmonized allocation, with no UKE permit required in Poland. Range is around 30 m line-of-sight (AKG declares ~20 m unobstructed), it runs on AA batteries for roughly 10–15 hours, and the HT40 transmitter uses a dynamic cardioid capsule. The system is fixed-frequency, so only one WMS40 set can be used per venue. Walk-test the space before guests arrive, and if older 2.4 GHz devices nearby cause interference, switch them off.
Stands, cables, and accessories
The package includes speaker tripods with a standard pole-mount socket (minimum 50 kg load rating), microphone stands (a boom for the lead vocalist and a straight stand for backup), XLR cables with two to three spares, a Jack TRS-to-RCA adapter for connecting a laptop or phone, heavy-duty extension cords of at least 10 m, multi-outlet strips with surge protection, and gaffer tape. Typical cable lengths are 3–5 m for microphones and 5–10 m for speakers.
Setup tips on the day
- Gain staging order: TRIM (PFL ~0 dB) → channel fader → master → speaker.
- Power sequence: power amps are LAST on and FIRST off — this avoids the “pop” through the speakers.
- Feedback control: always place speakers in front of the microphones, never behind. Cut around 250 Hz for mud, ~1 kHz, and ~2.5 kHz. Ring out by pushing each mic until it rings, cutting 3–6 dB on that band, and repeating two or three times before backing the channel down 6 dB.
- Power draw: two tops plus one sub peak around 3 kW — plan for a 16 A circuit with headroom.
