FetchExpress

FetchExpress is a low-cost, easy-to-install, maintenance-free portable PA system package, allowing you to bring sound to any location! FetchExpress can be used with an existing wireless network, or through its built-in WiFi, turning you into a walking hotspot. Broadcast your voice to listeners with a directly connected microphone, or a wireless mic system. For a single audio source, your listeners only see a single channel on the app, making it simple and intuitive to connect to the audio. For more channels, FetchExpress can be paired with multiple FetchExpress models (we recommend up to 8 on a network, or our AudioFetch Signature platform).

If you want your audience to hear better without distractions (or distracting others), FetchExpress is what you need.
