Hire Department
In the world of professional audio, our commitment to quality is total. With a heritage going back seven decades, we at RG Jones feel we are more qualified than most to be able to say that we know what we are talking about, and our list of prestigious clients and landmark jobs reflects this.
It is our aim to provide the ultimate service with the best possible people and the best possible equipment, tailored to the job, no matter how big or small.
Classical
The reinforcement of classical music is historically a sensitive subject, but one which we at RG Jones are more than qualified to undertake. We are recognised by orchestras, musicians and conductors alike as the leaders in the field for having real knowledge and understanding of the genre.
A client list which includes The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, The Royal Opera House, Carl Davis, John Barry and Karl Jenkins is ample testament to this fact. These people trust us to convey the music they create with all the subtlety and requisite beauty it demands.
Our classical clients include: Classical Spectacular, Henley Festival of Music and the Arts, English Heritage Open Air Picnic Concerts, Leeds Castle Open Air Concerts, Karl Jenkins' Adiemus Project, Cathcart Proms, Mount Ephraim Gardens Classical Concert, Kingston Maurwood, Jose Carreras at Cheltenham Racecourse, Womad Festival, Polesdon Lacey
Special Events
Every now and again, events that define the fabric of our time come along and grab the attention of the entire country, and often the world. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and affect people in as many ways; a nation uniting in celebration or respect at the 50th anniversaries of the events that marked the end of the last world war; a nation united in grief at the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales; a mass for tens of thousands for his Holiness the Pope, or the feelings of hope and expectation of many as a massive cruise liner receives a Royal blessing. Most people only ever see these kind of events in the media, or maybe attend one or two in a lifetime.
At RG Jones we have been given the honour of taking the responsibility for audio at more major special events than any individual could ever hope to experience, something we are very proud of.
Here are a select few of those events: D-Day Commemorations, Normandy, France, Concert in Tbilisi, Georgia, FastTrack Athletics, Formula 1 Gala Party, Royal Albert Hall, Joy To The World 1992 - 1995, Royal Albert Hall, King Hussein's Golden Jubilee, Amman, Jordan, Laureus World Sports Awards, Lord Stirling at The Royal Mews, Naming Ceremony of the Cruise Liner Aurora for P&O, Naming Ceremony of the Cruise Liner Oriana for P&O, Opening of the New Lloyds of London Building, Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee, The Foundation Laying, Topping Out and Opening Ceremonies, The Funeral Of Diana, Princess Of Wales, The Millennium Bridge, The Opening of the Thames Barrier The Papal Visit, The Royal Fireworks, Hyde Park, VE & VJ Day Commemorative Celebrations, Jalsa Salana Annual Convention, London Pride on Canada Day, The Glastonbury Festival

Television
RG Jones has a long association with the world of television. Television production companies have always considered the management and operation of loudspeaker systems to be outside their remit as it requires specialist knowledge, space and substantial capital investment. RG Jones have operated as "TV's PA Department" for over 40 years now and continue to provide systems regularly for studio and outside broadcast productions. We have an extensive range of equipment that is particularly well suited to the environment and an in-house team of engineers who fully understand the workings of television production.
Through close association with sound supervisors, floor staff, designers, directors and artists we work to provide monitor and front of house systems that fit into the production, without compromising performance. We ensure that the atmosphere, so crucial to any programme with a live audience, has come across on the small screen. This could only be achieved with a well-designed sound system.
Our Television clients include: National TV Awards, The National Lottery, The Pride of Britain Awards, The Royal Variety Performance, Top of the Pops, V. Graham Norton, An Audience With.., Saturday Night Takeaway, Des O'Connor Show, Jonathon Ross Show, Gladiators, Barrymore - My Kind of Music, A Song for Europe, ITV Launch, Lily Live, Live from Her Majesty's Sing with the Star's, The Big, Big Talent Show, The Evening Standard Drama Awards, The National Lottery, The Princes Trust Gala, The Warehouse, This is Your Life, Miss World, Seaside Special
Touring
The touring market is a relatively new area for RG Jones, coming out of both old clients breaking new ground and new ones coming to us in the realisation that there is no substitute for quality.
Whilst the market is crowded with suppliers, it is also a rich source of work and we feel that this is somewhere that we should have a presence. The addition of Synco to our hire stock stands us in good stead for anything that may be thrown at us.
Some recent tours we have provided sound hire for include: Chris Rea, Jools Holland, Shaolin - Wheel of Life, League of Gentlemen, Anastacia, Judie Tzuke.
Festivals
RG Jones provide sound installations for some of the UK's festivals.
Some recent festivals we have provided sound hire for include: Glastonbury Festival, Glastonbury Abbey,The Henley Festival.
