Speakers & Accessories

From portable PA and Bluetooth speakers to meeting-room, classroom and background-music systems, we stock speakers and the stands, brackets and cables to install them. Choose active (powered) speakers for a simple all-in-one setup, or passive speakers paired with an amplifier for larger spaces.

Active or passive speakers?

Active speakers have a built-in amplifier, so you just add a source and power — the simplest option for most offices, classrooms and small venues. Passive speakers need a separate amplifier or mixer sized to match, which gives you more flexibility and headroom for larger or permanent installations.

Speakers for meetings and offices

For meeting rooms and huddle spaces, compact active or ceiling speakers give clear, even sound for calls and presentations. Combine them with the right conferencing & collaboration kit, and add a microphone system where the room needs both playback and speech reinforcement.

Speakers for the classroom and assembly hall

Education spaces range from a single classroom to a full assembly hall. Portable PA speakers suit sports days and events, wall or ceiling speakers handle everyday teaching audio, and volume that fills the room without distortion matters more than premium hi-fi detail. Pair a speaker with a wireless microphone for presentations and performances.

Portable and Bluetooth speakers

Battery-powered and Bluetooth speakers are the flexible choice for spaces without fixed AV — events, training rooms, workshops and pop-up settings. Look at battery life, how loud the speaker goes for the room size, and whether you need a wired input as a backup to Bluetooth. For personal listening rather than filling a room, see our headphones and headsets.

Accessories, stands and cables

The right accessories make an install tidy and reliable: speaker stands and wall or ceiling brackets to position sound where it's needed, plus the audio cables and adapters to connect everything. If you're building or repairing equipment rather than buying finished units, our component chassis speakers and drivers cover that side.

Brands we stock

We carry a range of AV and PA speaker brands to suit business, education and everyday use, from big brand names like Logitech. Browse the full line-up on the brands page.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between active and passive speakers?

Active (powered) speakers have a built-in amplifier and just need a source and power. Passive speakers need a separate amplifier matched to them, but offer more flexibility for larger installs.

Do I need a separate amplifier?

Only for passive speakers. Active and Bluetooth speakers are self-powered, so no amplifier is required — ideal for a quick, simple setup.

Which speakers are best for a classroom?

Choose speakers that fill the room clearly without distortion. Portable PA suits events and assemblies, while wall or ceiling speakers work well for everyday teaching audio.

Are Bluetooth speakers good enough for meetings and events?

Yes, for small to mid-size spaces. Check the speaker is loud enough for the room and has a wired input as a backup. Larger venues are better served by a fixed or PA system.

What accessories do I need to install speakers?

Usually stands or wall/ceiling brackets to position the sound, and the right audio cables and adapters to connect to your source or amplifier.
