The ULTIMATE portable PA system. Light, loud, long battery life, and weatherproof. Half the size and weight of popular commercial-grade systems (click for comparison). Up to eight hour full power operation from internal battery.

No fragile injection-molded construction, underpowered amplifiers, or heavy lead-acid batteries – the DragonFly redefines what’s possible in a compact all-in-one PA.

The DragonFly gives you the best possible audio in a compact and reliable design that serve for years. Fully weatherproof, the DragonFly can easily be transported and set up by one person. A molded in stand-mount socket on the bottom of the unit and inserts on the sides for yoke mounting give the DragonFly a range of deployment options.
