Here is list of frequently asked questions by Brides and Grooms...

1. "What happens if you are doing my wedding and your equipment breaks?"

Fortunately, at Sound Investment most of our equipment is relatively new, so equipment failure is unlikely. About every 2 years we upgrade the most important parts of our sound systems in the attempt to avoid failure. If you book a wedding or other event with Sound Investment, we always carry an extra amplifier, mixer and 2 backup CD players, plus an emergency repair kit that contains fuses, cords and other repair items. We still hear stories from Banquet Halls about DJs whose equipment wasn't working and they tried to "patch in to" the Hall's sound system to save the day. Sound Investment is the only DJ service that carries backup emergency equipment equal to our Main Systems, to insure that the dancing continues at your wedding, no matter what.

2. "What do Sound Investment DJs wear at a wedding?"

Sound Investment DJs wear a business suit or tuxedo, it's your choice. In some extreme cases like doing "theme" weddings (Renaissance, Hawaiian, yes... we do them!), we are asked to dress up in the theme for the event.

3. "What time will the DJ arrive at the reception to start setting up his equipment?"

Sound Investment DJ Service will arrive 60-90 minutes prior to the start of your wedding to begin setting up the sound system. In some cases, we hire a "roadie" to set up equipment when your DJ is coming from another wedding and may not have time to do the initial setup and equipment test. We really prefer that the DJ set up his own equipment because he is the one who uses it every weekend and knows the limitations and parameters of it.

4. "How far will Sound Investment travel to entertain at my event?"

Sometimes, as DJ's it's Exciting to travel Out-of-State to do an Event. We will go almost anywhere for a good time and bragging rights. At Sound Investment our POLICY is "One Wedding Per DJ Per Day". This policy means that Wherever and Whenever your event is, your DJ is COMMITTED TO YOUR EVENT - At Sound Investment, we book weddings on a first come, first serve basis. The furthest we have ever traveled for a wedding? ...Philadelphia, PA.; New London; Great Barrington, MA.; Manhattan, Brooklynn, NY; Killington, VT. There may be a small Travel Charge involved.

5. " Can Sound Investment provide ceremony music at the reception hall?"

Yes. Did we tell you about our Audio Visual Rental Company yet? Sound Investment owns an A/V Rental and Production Company that has a Special Wireless, Battery-Powered Sound System with Lavaliere Microphones specifically for Wedding Ceremonies. Because it's Wireless there's no cables or power cords in any of your Wedding Pictures and ALL of your Ceremony Guests (Including older family members) can hear your vows. We can also play your Ceremony music on the Main System and have the Wireless System receive it - up to 3 blocks away! This is real "Pro-Grade" equipment that other DJs simply can't afford. Speaking of Ceremony Music, make sure you visit our 50,000 Song, Online Music Library which contains Ceremony samples that you can listen to right now. Sound Investment can provide ceremony music whether you get married at the reception hall, in the back yard or at the Church, it's not a problem. If you already have an idea as to what music you want played when you walk down the aisle, let us know and we will be happy to do it!!

6. "If we lose power during our event, does Sound Investment have a Generator?"

Yes, we do offer you a portable power solution for a nominal charge. Our 3,500 Watt generator can easily handle a sound system and light show and maybe even a coffee pot or two! Please ask about adding this feature to your package.

7. "Do you hand out Props or Giveaways at our Event?"

As a rule, No. Props are normally included only in our Bar/Bat Mitzvah Packages. If you are having another type of Event and want Props you would have to add them to your Package. If you are interested in securing Props and Giveaways for your Event you can purchase them at a DISCOUNT from our Online Store, "Sound Investment Makes Parties". Some clients have even provided their own Props and asked us to hand them out, which is Okay too.

8. "Are you Insured?"

Most venues that we play at do not require Liability Insurance. But, for those rare occasions that we may need it we're covered, which means that you're covered too. When all the other area DJ companies carry the Standard One Million Dollar Coverage (If they're insured at all!) Sound Investment goes beyond that to 2 Million Dollars - The HIGHEST of any DJ around!

9. "What type of Music Do You Play?"

Probably the most-asked Question we are asked everyday. Our Answer? "What Do You Want Us to Play?". It's YOUR CHOICE! Pick your own music, let us do it for you or perhaps a Combination of the two? We have a little bit of Everything:
