France-based professional loudspeaker manufacturer Active Audio has announced the appointment of Allied ProTech as its exclusive distributor for the United States.
“We’re very excited about our new partnership with Active Audio,” says Allied ProTech founder and president Rik Kirby. “They are a company that is constantly innovating and finding better ways to deliver superior audio performance. Their StepArray column loudspeakers deliver outstanding intelligibility in reverberant spaces, using fewer DSP channels, without the complex and expensive electronics that make most steered arrays so difficult to install and set up. They offer a full line of active and passive loudspeaker technologies that’s unique to the market, and we’re eagerly anticipating bringing their products to the U.S.”
Active Audio CEO Régis Cazin adds, “Now is the ideal time for us to enter the U.S. market, and Allied ProTech is the right partner to help us succeed. Rik Kirby brings more than 20 years of expertise in professional audio, and the entire Allied ProTech team bring an insight and understanding of what makes Active Audio loudspeakers unique. We’re confident they will provide the expert sales management and distribution we seek, along with the outstanding service and support that our customers deserve.”
