QUOTES

 

"Andy and I discussed what would be the best mis for the 4 Poofs and a Piano, and I advised him that the SM63s would be the right product to cope with their microphone technique. The fact that they've used the same ones for the last nine years is testament to the fact that we got it right."

"It's a wonderful bonus that, having worked so well for the past nine years, the mics will now go towards helping such a worthwhile cause."

Terry Tew, Managing Director Terry Tew Sound and Light

Our amazing supporters help us to continue to treat sick children from across the UK and the world.
