The roots of Cannon Sound And Light lay in hire way back in the early 80’s. Due to what appears to be a strong demand around our local area (the ‘insular Peninsular’) we will be resurrecting our hire department as of about now. The shortly to be published hire menu will include such items as PA, DJ and party packages and components, portable PA systems, wireless microphones, lighting and some back line. Stay tuned!

We are proud to announce the appointment of Marc Amore as Customer Service manager. Having spent 15 years in musical instrument retail followed by a further 9 years as a sales manager representing brands such as RCF, Nexo, Quest, Electro-voice, Midas and Klark Teknik, Marc brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Cannon. Top this off with the fact that he has for the past 26 years and still is, working as a live sound engineer, Marc will have a great understanding of your equipment requirements.

With the Aussie Dollar being so strong at the moment prices on some of the big brands have dropped. If you’ve been recently thinking about purchasing Allen & Heath, DBX, Crown or Shure (to name but a few affected brands) now may be a good time.

If you loved the look of the Shure 55SH but not it’s performance then you be glad to learn of the release of the Super 55 Deluxe, a blend of classic 1930’s architecture with todays technology! This is the ‘ 65 Ford Mustag’ of the microphone world. According to Scott Sullivan, Shure’s Senior Director of Global Product Management, “Everybody loves the look of the 55SH Series II, but sound engineers increasingly find that they need additional clarity and gain-before-feedback. Now people don’t have to choose between style and performance – the Super 55 provides equal measures of both.” We at Cannon have roadtested these new cool looking mics in a live situation and can vouch for Shure’s claims.
