How We Test and Recommend Gear
Reliable Audio Gear focuses on equipment used in real-world live sound environments, including rehearsals, small venues, and portable rigs.
Recommendations are based on:
- Hands-on experience with commonly used live sound gear
- Long-term reliability and consistent performance
- Practical setup considerations for working musicians
- Industry-standard usage rather than marketing claims
We prioritize gear that is widely supported, serviceable, and proven in live performance situations.
Reliable Audio Gear is an independent editorial site and does not sell products directly. Our goal is to help musicians and sound operators make informed decisions based on real-world use and long-term reliability.
