Large Mobile Distributed Audio System

Operational History: The Soundpeople Ltd have used this system for Super Rugby (Crusaders), NPC (Canterbury), NRL (Warriors), and International Test Rugby (All Blacks/Black Ferns) for more than 30 years, starting at Lancaster Park and subsequently at Christchurch’s temporary stadium (Apollo Projects Stadium) following the 2011 Earthquakes. With just a few more matches to be played at Apollo before the opening of Christchurch’s One New Zealand Stadium, this system will be available for purchase after April 2026.

The speaker system consists of mainly JBL loaded proprietary boxes (SB2) originally designed by David Scheirman for Soundpeople who went on to become Vice President of Tour Sound at JBL. The system has had many upgrades over the years including new amplifiers, console, radio and playback systems. The speaker boxes could do with some painting and maintenance but are functional. Most, if not all the drivers have been replaced at some point and the speaker grill foam has been replaced on the SB2 speakers. The speakers are somewhat weather resistant but not suitable for permanent outdoor installation. This system is being offered as a turnkey package with speakers, amplifiers, console, playback system, radio mics and storage container.

While every effort has been made to represent this system honestly, it is a large and complex system and any prospective purchasers are strongly encouraged to inspect the system for themselves prior to purchase. Consideration will be given to someone wishing to purchase only the speaker system without the control package or parts thereof. Other divisions of this equipment may be considered but please do not ask to purchase one pair of speakers or one amplifier etc. Please note that this system is being advertised through other channels and we reserve the right to remove this listing at any time.
