Vaughan Sound has provided cutting-edge, professional audio equipment to numerous sports stadia, pitches, and recreational facilities across the UK.
Our solutions often include integrated public address, voice alarm, and professional sound systems. We’ve had the great fortune to have worked with large, well known stadia such as the Principality Stadium, Parc y Scarlets, and the Swansea.com Stadium.
However, it isn’t just the bigger venues that benefit from our decades of industry experience. We are incredibly proud to support grassroots clubs throughout the UK, offering them affordable access to premium expertise and high-quality materials, and ensuring they will be future-proofed for many seasons to come.
Two clubs that have recently benefitted from Vaughan Sound’s services are Sutton Coldfield Town FC, and Taunton RFC.
Let’s dive into the equipment, systems, and support provided to both clubs:
Sutton Coldfield Town FC
Problem?
Outdated Public Address System
Initial Consultation:
Sutton Coldfield Town FC approached us to enquire about upgrading their public address system, after reviewing some of our previous work for other stadia and sports grounds.
We studied the layout of their ground and created a suitable design in conjunction with the client’s requirements. We then worked to create detailed drawings, which highlighted the proposed placement of new loudspeakers to provide even coverage throughout.
Our Solution:
It was clear that their public address amplifier needed an upgrade, so a model was chosen that offered additional inputs and added functionality.
The model included the below features:
- Simple to operate mixer amplifier
- A radio microphone system
- Announcer’s microphone
- Music input
As always, compliance is one of our top priorities at Vaughan Sound and this public address system was designed and installed in accordance with BS 6259, the British Standard for public address systems in sports grounds.
It was our pleasure to support this non-league football club and deliver the technology that will ensure announcements at future games are loud and clear.
Sutton Coldfield Town FC continues to receive our expert support, as we assist them with ongoing maintenance and servicing of their public address system.
Taunton RFC

Problem?
Taunton RFC are a well-established rugby club competing in the English national leagues, attracting large crowds. Matchday atmosphere needed enhancing, and the spectator experience was not up to their standard. The existing public address system needed an upgrade.
Initial Consultation:
Our recommended proposal included four music horn loudspeakers, as well as eight full-range projection loudspeakers to provide greater audio coverage across the pitch and into the main seated stand.
Our Solution:
After Taunton RFC were happy with our proposal, it was all systems go! We were tasked with supplying the equipment, delivering it to site, and testing and commissioning the installation prior to the Titans’ home fixture against Cinderford.
The equipment rack was pre-assembled at our offices, and we provided detailed instructions and wiring diagrams to the club’s appointed electricians to install the cabling and loudspeakers.
Here are some of the solutions supplied to this rugby club:
- Simple to operate mixer amplifier
- A radio microphone system
- Announcer’s microphone
- Music input
As a result of our expertise, the new public address system has greatly improved the sound quality for music playback and matchday commentary.
Client Feedback:
“The installation was exemplary, as was its commissioning, so please pass on my thanks to all. The quality of sound is excellent and far removed from the old system.”
Steve Collard, Managing Director
(Commsplus – club sponsor)“I’d just like to add my thanks to Vaughan Sound and T&C Electrical for the supply, installation, and commissioning of our new PA system at the rugby club. Having seen and heard the new system being commissioned, I’m sure it is a huge improvement on the old system and should help provide many years of quality PA and music to improve the overall rugby experience for the players and supporters alike. As a supporter who has visited many of the away grounds so far this season, I can say with some confidence that this is one more reason (amongst many others) why we have one of the best rugby club grounds in this division.”
