DECEMBER 17, 2018 - TIP OF THE DAY

The following "Tip of the Day" is provided to assist you with horse and farm management.  It is an idea developed by and/or used by Leslie Raulin.  This tip is available to you at your own risk.  Leslie Raulin does not make any claims or warranties nor does she have any financial interest in any products that may be mentioned.

ARENA SOUND SYSTEM
RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS AND CONNECTIONS FOR
A DRESSAGE ARENA SOUND SYSTEM


My 60m x 20m indoor arena has a sound system that I put together using parts ordered from Amazon.com.  I am not a sound engineer; therefore, an expert may question my approach.  However, it works!  The parts cost $1,309.08 as of March 7, 2017 (prices are rising as when I purchased the parts about 1.5 years ago the cost was less than $1,000), exclusive of labor.

I use the system to listen to music while I ride.  Trainers use the microphone on the system so students and auditors can hear instruction.  Because there is a mixer, musical freestyle music can be played simultaneously with trainer instruction via the microphone.

I have connections for a microphone, CD, 30pin iPhone/iPod, and lightening iPhone/iPod.  The microphone and music can operate simultaneously for musical freestyle instruction.

Click here to download a PDF file that has a list of parts, a diagram for connections, and details and links for each item.

Enjoy!
