Premium Audio Rentals in Central Arkansas
At Roots & Rhythm, we believe that sound isn’t just heard — it’s experienced. As a boutique, owner-operated rental company serving Central Arkansas, we specialize in curated, high-quality speaker rental systems that deliver clarity, impact, and ease of use for every event. When you work with us, you’re speaking directly with the owner — the person who personally selects, maintains, and delivers every system, ensuring a truly hands-on, premium experience.
We’ve chosen a different path from typical rental companies: instead of filling our inventory with generic JBL, QSC, or Yorkville systems, we focus on two distinct approaches that serve different types of clients while ensuring top-tier sound.
Premium, Battery Powered Systems
Our Stage One by Electrotec Audio is designed with both performance and simplicity in mind. Whether you are hosting a small gathering, a DIY worship service, a backyard celebration, or a more intimate wedding, these battery-powered speakers deliver crisp, clear sound with professional-level impact. The system is built for those who want premium audio without complicated setups or technical headaches. Its plug-and-play design allows you to focus on your event while enjoying high-quality sound. These speakers excel in any environment where space is limited, portability is important, or quick setup is crucial without sacrificing audio quality.
Why Stage One Stands Out
- Exceptional Clarity and Definition: Vocals and instruments are separated clearly, creating a professional sound experience.
- Plug-and-Play Ease: Turn on, sync wirelessly via SKAA technology, and you’re ready.
- Compact Yet Powerful: Delivers more than most small PA setups, making it ideal for high-impact sound in a portable package.
- Proven Expertise: Designed by Rikki Farr, an audio professional with decades of experience working with legendary acts such as Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles and many more, ensuring every speaker is crafted for performance.
These systems are for clients who want
premium sound without the hassle. These speakers perform well beyond typical Bluetooth or battery-powered setups.
High Impact, Professional BassBoss Systems
For clients seeking full-scale, high-fidelity audio, we offer BassBoss rigs, including DV-12 tops that, when paired, deliver such a flat, even response it feels like there’s an accompanying 18" subwoofer. This flat response is especially important for listener comfort: unlike cheaper systems (like JBL or QSC), which can push highs excessively when emphasizing bass — resulting in a fatiguing, harsh sound — BassBoss maintains clarity, balance, and musicality, allowing your audience to enjoy the full range without ear fatigue.
For clients seeking even deeper bass, we offer the dual 21" Makara subwoofer, a production-level subwoofer designed to deliver deep, powerful low-end often heard in rap, hip-hop, and electronic music genres — all without needing 4-6 dual 18" cabinets to achieve the same low end impact. These systems provide deep, immersive, and evenly balanced sound that rivals high-end brands like Meyer and L-Acoustics — without the premium price tag.
BassBoss is for clients who want serious sound quality and the full immersive experience of a professional-grade rig.
Why bassboss is premium
- Hi-Fi Roots: Created by David Lee, a lifelong hi-fi enthusiast, designed for clarity, evenness, and deep sub bass
- Professional Performance: Tops and subs work seamlessly together to produce a sound that’s full, clear, and impactful.
- Trusted by Audiophiles: While less mainstream, BassBoss offers a technically superior top end option, providing incredible value for rentals.
- Versatile for Any Event: From church programs to weddings and private parties, these systems ensure every note, word, and beat is heard clearly.
