Pro-Mix is fantastic and the ONLY place I will rent or refer people to rent music equipment from in the future. You can tell when people enjoy what they do and truly wish you success and that is Mike and Marisela without a doubt. We needed to rent a pa/speaker system for our Block Party and Pro-Mix went above and beyond our expectations and set my mind at ease. Mike's story about helping someone out and teaching them how to DJ was next level awesome, and exactly what customer service is all about. Stop reading and contact them. You will be happy you did.

Rented a karaoke machine from Pro-Mix after a last minute pivot from a karaoke bar to a party at home and it couldn't have been easier! Mike was great and promptly sent a contract over to me after speaking on the phone. Instructions for machine set up were helpful and equipment was straightforward to use. We will definitely use Pro-Mix again!!
The only qualm from our attendees was that they wanted a few more Bruce Springsteen songs added to the machine (Born to Run, Thunder Road, Glory Days) otherwise the selection was very comprehensive!

Love this place! We have rented from them many times, karoake machines mostly but now we have also rented a projector and a screen. Every time I have dealt with them, I have received added value. The owner Mike always throws in some little thing or works with us to accommodate our timing. They are very organized and have friendly staff and good pricing. Highly recommend!!

Pro-Mix Audio & Lighting can do the impossible! Mike and his crew transformed a 1927 building to a venue capable of hosting a live performance with a stage, lighting, and sound systems. Everything worked perfectly! They took all the worry away from me and allowed me to concentrate on my performer and my guests. Throughout the planning stage, Mike was responsive and extremely helpful on a variety of topics. All of the Pro-Mix team are a pleasure to work with and very reliable.

Great place for rental gear.
Attended my brother's wedding and needed some lights for the dance floor, speakers, and a microphone.
I called in and spoke to a representative who helped me place the rental every step of the way.
They showed me how to set up everything which made it less stressful when I had to do it by myself at he banquet hall.
Overall, super easy to book the rental, good pricing made this experience great. Thanks again! Will recommend to friends.

We rented a karaoke package for our annual holiday party. Mike and his crew were great. They took the time to walk through each step for setting up the equipment. Pick up and drop off were easy and painless. They were very reasonably priced.
The speaker was loud enough for our 100 person event. Mike offered back up equipment to ensure our event went smoothly. That was an amazing customer focused offering. It just shows that they want to make sure our event went well.

Simply amazing! Pro-Mix provided sound for our daughter's outdoor wedding this weekend and went above and well beyond expectations! Their customer service is top-notch and they are absolutely great people to work with. Their prices are also quite affordable. These people love what they do and it shows!

We used Pro-Mix Audio for our recent concert. I played the piano and
we had two vocalists. It was so easy to work with Paige from Pro-Mix and she came more than prepared with the total equipment.
Working with Mike and Omar also was such a pleasure in every way.
Their prices were so reasonable and they did everything possible to give us the service to make an amazing Audio production from our Concert.
Thank to all of the people of Pro-Mix... I would totally recommend them!

We used Pro-Mix Audio & Lighting this past weekend to celebrate our daughters birthday. We were in need of equipment to view a movie outdoors. Michael and his helpful crew came through with exactly what we were hoping for.
I highly recommend this company and their services! Thanks so much for making our party extra special!

I've used Pro-Mix several times and have always been happy. Whether I was renting microphones for my sister's wedding, screens and projectors for a business presentation, or as a DJ for another family member's wedding, Pro-Mix never disappoints! Their rental process is easy and streamlined for quick in-and-out. Mike is a phenominal emcee and they do a great job getting everyone moving and having fun!

I used Pro-Mix Audio & Lighting for my wedding last summer. I was highly impressed with their customer service and flexibility. Pro-Mix has a knowledgeable staff that complements the high quality of their equipment. All of the staff were extremely helpful and made sure that all of the sound equipment I needed would work for the applications I required. The pickup and return of the equipment was very simple and was accomplished in a timely fashion. Thank you for your friendly service and support and for getting me the best equipment for a good price!

This business is a GEM. I needed speakers, microphones, and a sound board for my wedding. I was shocked by their affordable pricing. The sound system was top-notch. The employees were extremely helpful and so friendly! I was so impressed w/ everyone - i had to ask if they were all family and this is a family-run business. They told me "no, we are employees here. the owner treats us well and we love working here." I had called Guitar Center prior to calling them. Didn't get a call back. I am so glad it happened that way because Pro-Mix far exceeded all my expectations! EXTREMELY SATISFIED CUSTOMER

OMG.. this place is a GEM! My brother and I came here to get DJ equipment for my wedding. I met the most helpful and nicest people here. Usually, I am not easily impressed but I was when i walked into their warehouse (a bit hard to find but so worth it). I was floored by how little it costed me to rent two really nice speakers, a sound board, and 2 mic's. My price was $160. We got the equipment for 3 days (pick up Sat and drop off Mon). talk about a great deal! They demo'd the sound system for you right there. I was in and out in 10 mins - extremely happy! We saved a ton. also, i believe

It was a pleasure to rent karaoke equipment from them. The website had all of the information and I was able to make a reservation directly from there. The store has no identification from the road that I could see. I had to drive around the building to the back, and then all I saw was loading docks and trucks. But I did notice that the doors had identification on them. The door in front (last on the left of the building), had a small business name on it and you have to be buzzed in. But inside it was a very easy process; from looking at the equipment I was going to be renting and how easy

As a Professional Mix DJ out of Atlanta, I travel quite a bit for weddings, etc. I had a special family wedding just outside of Chicago recently. I needed gear (Mixing Board, Speakers, Mic, etc). Lots of research brought me to Pro-Mix Audio. The rental prices were great. I worked with PJ and he was professional throughout the entire process. When I picked up the gear I noticed they had a great inventory set. They even set up the equipment to test/demo before I picked it up. Nice. I made a few last minute adjustments and there was no stress. Next trip to Chicago, I know where to go for any DJ needs

I first met Pro Mix at the Bridal Expo. They provided the uplights/DJ/ pipes/drapes for my reception. I worked with Chris and he suggested great ideas for the uplights, where the colors would change throughout the night. Mike who is the owner of the company was also my DJ / MC, I provided a detailed schedule and gave him full control of the reception night. Although, we were running behind on schedule due to rain/late guest arrival, Mike was able to manage and run the show smoothly. The lighting decor, truss, and the pipes/drapes turned out beautiful. The speakers quality was very nice. It

This place is th best. The staff is knowledgable and freidnly. Need a cable @ 7pm or the gig is moot? Pro-mix delivers. They have the latest gear and know how to use it. Prices are super. Mike, the owner, is top notch. If you spin or sing Karoeke (SP?) you must check out Pro-Mix. My fave for DJ equipment, music, and lighting.
