What Kansas City Venues and Theaters Say About Us
"Rick worked with me to get what we wanted to fit my budget cap. I purchased 20 Color Source LED fixtures along with all accessories under budget. The level of service provided by XS Lighting has been very high and I am always very satisfied."
"Rick listened to what we wanted to accomplish with our limited budget. He was patient and honest answering all our questions. He did not try to sell us something we did not need. XS Lighting did an excellent job with installation, and the lights are phenomenal."
"I've chosen to work with XS Lighting as my primary vendor for lighting, sound, and supply needs. Rick and his staff are knowledgeable about the most state-of-the-art equipment and usually have something ready to demonstrate upon request."
