Korg USA will take on exclusive U.S. distribution for the Elements line of HK Audio products, effective January 2011. The Elements line of portable audio products will be debuted in the U.S. by Korg USA at the 2011 Winter NAMM show.
With global headquarters and engineering based in Germany, HK Audio has been bringing to market high-quality sound reinforcement products for more for over 20 years.
Korg USA president Joe Castronovo notes, “In line with Korg USA’s longstanding reputation as a brand builder, we welcome the opportunity to develop the HK brand in the U.S. HK is a high-quality and respected brand in Europe, and we’re proud to now represent them in our market.”
“I am delighted that Korg USA decided to become our exclusive Elements partner in the U.S. market,” commented Hans Stamer, president of HK Audio. “We thank Korg USA for their trust and confidence in our company and products. I am more than convinced that this partnership will be a very successful one.”
“Korg USA has a reputation as a strong brand builder and great sales organization. With their support and efforts, we will establish Elements and HK Audio firmly in the U.S. market,” adds Andreas Mayerl, Director of International Sales for HK Audio.
The HK Audio Elements system is a line-source system that links the advantages of modern line-array technology with the easy handling of compact PA systems.
Consisting of six components, Elements offers a portable, adaptable sound reinforcement solution. Components can be added or removed from the system via E-Connect, a new integrated coupler/bus that provides quick “mix n’ match” capabilities.
