Other Info

Megaphones are perfect for signalling, directing large crowds and making important announcements. Below, you'll find everything you need to know before you pick up one of the various different megaphones in our range.

The Best Megaphone for You: Here's What You Need to Know

At Bax Music, you'll find various megaphones loaded with different output capacities and options. For smaller demonstrations and sports events, a model with a range of say 200 metres will be just fine. For larger venues, fields and squares, we have megaphones that boast the wattage needed to cover a range of up to one kilometre. In general, megaphones are battery-powered and there are various models that faeture a built-in sirene, a detachable microphone and a recording function. Some megaphones even feature a built-in USB port and SD-card reader so you can playback sounds and samples.

From Sporting Events to Emergencies

A fully-fledged PA system is not only rather expensive, it's also more difficult to transport and might not even reach everyone in a massive group of people, making the megaphone a solid-and-affordable alternative tool for the job. For presentations and other situations where audio quality actually matters, a portable sound system is a better choice. At sporting events or in the case of an emergency situation, however, megaphones are perfect for getting a message across loud and clear.

Important Features of Professional Megaphones

To help you make a more informed decision, here's a list of options that modern megaphones may come equipped with.

Built-In Rechargeable Battery vs. Disposable Batteries

If you already know you'll be using your megaphone intensively, then you can opt to get a model fitted with a built-in rechargeable battery, which is a more durable alternative to models that require disposable batteries. Just how fast the batteries drain depends on the functions of your megaphone and how frequently it’s used.

The Sonic Power Capacity of a Megaphone

The power capacity of a megaphone determines its loudness and how far your voice will travel. Bear in mind that relatively low-power megaphones are still powerful enough to cover a small group of people standing in close range. If you want to reach people who are situated farther away, then make sure to pick a megaphone that boasts a higher power capacity - especially if you'll be using it outside.

Fixed Microphone vs. Detachable Microphone

Some megaphones feature a detachable, walkie-talkie-style microphone that you can speak into so you don't have to hold the megaphone in front of your mouth. The advantage of these models is that they can be set up somewhere or hung over your shoulder for more comfort.

Recording and Playback Function

Some megaphones are outfitted with a recording and playback function so you can record a short message and play it back on repeat. This is particularly useful for public announcements, jingles, slogans and rallying cries. In most cases, the recording time is limited to roughly ten seconds.

SD Card Slot, USB Port and Bluetooth

Last but not least, there are megaphones on the market that feature a built-in SD card reader, USB port and even Bluetooth so you can playback audio.

Frequently Asked Questions About Megaphones
