Expected life of system

(The life span is not determined by the quality of the equipment used but rather how soon will you can expect to outgrow the performance level of the system.)
New start up ministries with good growth may outgrow this system within 5 years or so. System can be handed down to youth ministry afterwards, used in the fellowship hall, or given or sold to another church in need.

Smaller sanctuaries in smaller communities could expect this system to last 15 years or more

Ministries growing with music and drama can expect this system to last years until the sanctuary is remodeled. The system is designed to expand as your needs grow. The components can be expected to last 20 years or more. A lifetime or until you change the sanctuary size, seating layout, or acoustics. Systems are modular to allow for easy expansion or upgrading features.
