Frequently asked questions
How does a megaphone speaker work?
A megaphone picks up your voice through a built-in or handheld microphone, boosts it with a small amplifier and pushes it out through a horn-shaped speaker. The flared horn directs the sound forward, so speech carries further than a raised voice. How far it reaches varies with output power, background noise and weather. The range here includes handheld, shoulder-slung and vehicle megaphones.
What is a megaphone?
A megaphone is a portable loudspeaker, usually hand-held, that makes a voice loud enough to be heard by a crowd or across an open space. Many have a siren setting, and some can record and repeat a message or play audio over USB, SD or Bluetooth. They are often used at events, sports days, schools, protests and evacuation drills.
Are megaphones legal in the UK?
Yes, owning and using a megaphone is legal in the UK, but where and when it is used is controlled. Using a loudspeaker in a street is restricted at night and for advertising, and councils can act against noise nuisance. Venues, event organisers and landowners may also set their own rules, so check before using one at an event.
