This Rent to Own Audio Podcast brought to you by APRO's RTOHQ.org

Roy Oribello is the senior vice president of BriteLite a 14-year-old company that offers a line of DJ audio rack systems for home and professional use.

Kits start in the low $600's to the $1,200.

BriteLite is a first time vendor at the TRIB show this week in Dallas. Oribello said the experience has been worthwhile.

"We're excited about the response we've gotten from TRIB dealers here at the show," Oribello said. "We've seen customers go with longer term contracts, typically for 104 weeks. However, many times people will rent a DJ kit for a weekend in which case they're pulling in anywhere from $150 to $200 for the weekend plus deposit."
