Hi all, Yes sorted this out on Friday. Soundcraft mixer is faulty. Connected new small mixer and the 2 existing wireless mics and one wired mic, corrected gains as said, re-positioned speakers. All seems in order for School open day. Defo good mic technic is needed too! The main issues were , position of the speakers, soundcraft mixer not working, plus the gain setup. Really appreciate all the replies, thanks! J

Thanks for all the replies guys, really appreciate it. In the mean time I will check and test the recommendations regarding the current setup. I meant to say feedback comes when using mics, but there is a slight crackle in the system when using other audio too which I will investigate. We don't have a person that solely looks after the AV but I'm interested and put my hand up when told about getting a new system. The school wants a new system anyway and has budgeted for it (not my choice) it's also going to be used in a new building once finished.

Hi all, I've been given the task of purchasing a new AV system for the hall at the school I work at in Surrey near Guildford. The current old AV gear we have in place is a OSC Audio USA 850 amp, Yamaha graphic equalizer Q2031A, CD drive, tape drive, mixing desk - Sound craft Sprit Follo RAC DAC sound desk and a set of 4 x loud speakers. The current AV wiring for the system causes feedback so we need to sort this but are reluctant on spending too much on the wiring as the AV system needs to be moved to a new building in 2 years unless the wiring loom can be moved and re-installed? We would also like to demo the AV gear in the Hall where's it's going to be installed before we purchase. So I'm looking for any decent AV suppliers/installers to come out and give us quotes? Cheers, J

Hi there, I have 2 pens that have recently stop working, has any 1 tried fixing these at all? All that's inside is a small PCB. Secondly does anyone know of a cheaper alternative that will work on these panels? or a cheap supplier? The pens cost around £65 excluding VAT which is pricey! The product code for the pen is PL-510-G-PEN. AKA DTF-510. Cheers, J
