About Us
Hill Country Ears is new to the Texas Hill Country but certainly no stranger to the sound business.  Since 1974, we have been involved in sound engineering jobs from large & small venue PA to custom recording & production studio design and operation.  We pride ourselves in providing high quality audio services at reasonable prices.  We are timely with load in and load outs.  We don't show up impaired and are always friendly with your staff and crews.  The golden rule always applies to our customers and patrons alike.  Try us for your next event or gig.

What We Do

We provide sound/lighting and engineering for venues up to 2500 people.  We are capable of mixing live bands and theater performances as well.  We also lease small PA equipment systems for churches, weddings and sidewalk shopping events.  DJ  services are also available for your next party.
