ARX Systems, the Australian-based manufacturer of Professional Audio Equipment, has appointed Scottsdale, Arizona-based Olsen Audio Group as its distributor for North America, including the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Olsen Audio Group CEO Craig Olsen is a 40-plus-year veteran of the U.S and Japanese pro audio industries. Working in live sound since the late 1960’s, Olsen joined Yamaha Corporation in 1982, where he was instrumental in the design and manufacture of the ground-breaking PM3000 mixing console.

In 1993, he formed the Olsen Audio Group which manufactures and distributes globally the WindTech, Audio Visual Assistance and Mic-Muff brands of audio accessories.

“ARX and Olsen Audio share very similar philosophies – quality products, aimed at market niches, to make the audio professional’s life easier,” comments ARX Managing Director Colin Park. “Olsen Audio has a large existing dealer network in the U.S and Canada, and we all believe that ARX products will be well received by dealers and end users alike.”
