Music Speakers

Help me give my students a new speaker system for our music room!

My Project

I have the joy of making music with wonderful students from PreK to 5th grade. We are always creating music in unique ways by dancing, singing, and playing several instruments. We like to be loud (but in a good way).

Our sound system currently does not meet the demands of playing instruments in our music room, but having additional speakers would help give more adequate sound to the room while playing singing and different instruments.

We had a set of these speakers at one time in our old music building, but sadly they have since burned a fuse. I know these speakers are just what we need to add and enhance music in our room.
