1. Can I bring my own CD's to play?

Of course! If you have songs that aren't listed on the music list and you're confident that the crowd would respond favorably to hearing them, "A Sound Investment" welcomes playing your CD's. Let us know in advance what you will be bringing as there is a chance we may already have them in our library.

2. Should we have the hall provide a table for you?

No, that is not necessary. "A Sound Investment" sound systems come complete with attractive enclosures housing the components. The enclosures are covered in Ozite and made to look like a "DJ Booth". Other DJ's place their components on a table top where exposed wiring can be seen. Our wiring remains hidden from view.

3. How do your DJ's dress?

"A Sound Investment" DJ's come dressed for the occasion. If your engagement is a formal affair our DJ's wear a tuxedo. If it's a more casual affair a suit might be more appropriate.

4. Does the "contracted time" include set up?

You DO NOT get charged for our set up or travel time. "A Sound Investment" starts playing at the time you specify and runs consecutively until the contacted time period is over. If we are contracted for 4 hours and you need introductions at 7:45 we will continue until 11:45.

5. Can we purchase additional time at the end of the event?

Yes, you can always purchase additional time at a rate of $60 per half hour or $100 per hour. We always recommend that you contract "A Sound Investment" for the minimum 4 hour time period, instead of 5 or 6, because you can always purchase more at the end of the event if you need to. This way, you don't have to pay for more than you need.

6. Are you a full time DJ company or do you moonlight in this business?

7. Do you play requests?

Yes, IF they are appropriate for the crowd. Sometimes, guests request music that would not be within the crowds best interest (questionable lyrical content etc.). We discourage these kinds or requests, however, if your guests request music that would complement the crowd, we will be happy to play them as long as it doesn't interfere with the Bride's mandatory requests.

8. Do you bring lighting?

"A Sound Investment" does not normally bring lighting to a Wedding Reception. Alot of brides don't want their reception looking like a disco and request we not bring them, however, if you believe your engagement will be enhanced by lighting, we will provide it free of charge.

9. If we rent your Karaoke gear can we hook it up to our home stereo?

Yes, you can hook it up to your home stereo, however, we do not recommend it. Sometimes guests have a tendency to get carried away singing and SHOUTING into the microphone. This can be very damaging to an unprofessional sound system. We recommend renting a professional sound system, especially if your party will take place in a large room. Ask "A Sound Investment" about renting a sound system. We will be happy to provide you with a system that will bring out the best in your guests performances. If you have a small party, in a small room, and you have responsible singers, your home stereo can do the job.
