-a public address system (PA system) is an [electronic sound (amplification/distribution system)]-
.
.
*3 MAIN COMPONENTS* –>
‘micro-phone’
.
‘amplifier’
.
‘loud-speakers’
.
.
used to allow a person to address a large public,
for example for announcements of movements at large and noisy air and rail terminals or at a ‘sports stadium’)
.
(the term is also used for systems which may additionally have a ‘mixing console’, and ‘amplifiers’ and ‘loudspeakers’ suitable for ‘music’ as well as ‘speech’, used to reinforce a sound source, such as ‘recorded music’ or a person giving a speech or distributing the sound throughout a venue or building)
(simple ‘PA systems’ are often used in small venues such as school auditoriums, churches, and ‘small bars’)
(‘PA systems’ with many speakers are widely used to make announcements in public, institutional and commercial buildings and ‘locations’)
(‘intercom systems’, installed in many buildings, have microphones in many rooms allowing the occupants to respond to ‘announcements’)
(‘sound reinforcement systems’ and ‘PA systems’ may use some similar components, but with differing application, although the distinction between the two is not clear-cut)
(‘sound reinforcement systems’ are for live music or performance, whereas ‘PA systems’ are primarily for reproduction of ‘speech’)
.
(in britain, any ‘PA system’ is sometimes colloquially referred to as a ‘tannoy’, after the company of that name now owned by ‘TC Electronic Group’, which supplied a great many of the PA systems used previously in ‘britain’)
