TESTIMONIAL:
“I am with Green Bay Fear Haunted Attraction and have a ‘quad walker’ costume. It is around 9 feet tall and I needed an added dimension to it. As you can imagine, a beast like that needs a big voice. The Minion system gave me what I needed. Lightweight and remote controlled was an excellent combination. The sound quality is great and it is also easy to use. I would recommend this system to anyone with a large costume or even to use it as a PA system.” – Kerry J Deer
