"I have to say I was extremely happy with Chris and would recommend anyone to use his services, we had 4 bands playing, he turned them round very effectively and the feedback from the bands was that they were provided with excellent sound. "

"We recently got hitched in the UK and a few of the attending guests and I play in band(s) together. We thought it would be nice to extend the wedding weekend and have a day of live music the day after the wedding. As most of the band live and work overseas, transporting our own PA equipment wasn't feasible so we looked into hiring some gear for the day. Grimshaw Audio was recommended by a friend who works in the music business so I contacted Chris through the website and he quickly replied to confirm he was available and offered some great advice on the equipment we required. He also offered to set up and manage all the technical stuff throughout the day so we didn't need to worry about levels, settings etc. The price seemed very reasonable so we progressed with the booking. Following a phone conversation to firm up the details, it was clear that Chris is extremely knowledgeable about about his work and service; Grimshaw Audio was obviously a passionate hobby as well as a professional business. We were scheduled to start the first set at around 3:00pm on the Sunday; Chris and his colleague arrived at 10:00am to set up! The kit they work with is amazing. The speakers are hand crafted by Chris so he literally knows them inside out. Backed up by a remote tablet mixer, he can stroll the venue and and adjust the levels accordingly via a Bluetooth connection (I guess?). We're an amateur band so having a sound engineer and a quality PA set up was a real novelty for us; despite all our rusty mistakes we've never sounded so clear and bright (in our opinion). All the vocals and instruments, (percussion, bass, keys, guitar) were fed through the same PA so Chris was also able to provide us with a full recording on a USB stick. All in all, I can't recommend this guy enough. A young business with a bright future for sure. I just wish he lived in the Middle East so we could hire him for every gig! "

"Joe did the sound engineering for the largest band at my festival, think there was 8 of them (Nottingham orchestra) and did it perfectly, sounded ace and would’ve been a struggle without him"

"Dave at Prestige Sound provided equipment and sound engineering for my wedding, including prep, soundchecking, mixing and monitoring a 7 piece ska band and a rap duo. It sounded bang on and we had many comments from guests and the artists themselves that the set up and sound was amazing He provided highly professional service provided throughout, including diligently contacting the bands in advance of the event to gather requirements and I'm so glad we hired him!

"We hired Bernie and the team at Whiteley events to provide a 180 degree wall of sound at our gig at Eastbourne Bandstand and they did a great job. Both the sound on stage and front of house was amazing! They are a very professional team and we will definitely use them again! Kelly Hampson Chic to Chic - A Tribute to Nile Rodgers & Chic"

"Chris responded at pretty short notice (6 days) to a request to provide sound for a gig at The Lescar in Sheffield. He was providing sound for a pretty challenging headline act - Il Sogno Del Marinaio - whose bass guitarist (Mike Watt) was recently in Iggy Pop & The Stooges and perhaps more famously early '80s US hardcore band Minutemen. Chris did a superb job for them, giving them what they wanted in terms of set-up, overcoming some technical issues & really impressing with sound on the night. Likewise the support (Dave Woodcock) were able to set up quickly and their acoustic set sounded superb. The whole night went smoothly and the audience loved it; Chris played a huge part in that. Highly recommend."

"I simply could not recommend Core Event Hire enough. Chris and his team are professional, experienced and do everything at a competitive rate (they even chucked a few things in for free!) My only regret is not using them more on the project I was organising - couldn't be happier."

"Chris provided sound equipment and excellent technical support for our village music festival in July 2017. He was professional and knowledgeable and his sound equipment ensured the sound quality was of a high standard throughout the event. I would not hesitate to recommend his services. "

"Hired a basic package for my dads 50th birthday at the blessington carriage in Derby Including speakers, lights and a microphone so I could play my own music. JNS sound and lighting delivered the equipment, set it all up for me and showed me how to use it. He then came and picked up the equipment later that night. Very good service, good cost and top quality speakers! Would recommend to anyone whatever size party you want. Customer service skills were also very good."
