We are delighted to report that we were judged winners in two categories at last Friday’s AV Awards, held ‘virtually’ this year.

We triumphed in both the Audio Technology of the Year (with our Smart IP loudspeakers) and Green Business of the Year categories, against some very formidable opposition indeed.

Firmly established as the unrivalled badge of excellence for the AV industry, the AV Awards is the benchmark for the highest possible professional standards – recognising the outstanding achievements of individuals, companies, projects and technology across the AV, events and production sectors.

Since its launch in 1999, the AV Awards have been renowned worldwide for promoting best practice, raising standards and rewarding excellence and innovation across the AV industry. The judging process and categories are audited every year using a carefully curated steering committee to ensure all entries are properly and fairly evaluated – resulting in awards that are independent, robust and transparent.

Adapting to the current pandemic situation, the event this year was held entirely online and hosted by US comedian Rich Hall – and hats off to the AV Awards team for still managing to make the evening a fun and engaging experience for all.

We’re particularly pleased to see both Smart IP and our environmental efforts being recognised this year. Smart IP loudspeakers combine exceptional sound quality with single cable convenience, providing power, audio-over-IP and loudspeaker management features via a standard CAT cable, and have been warmly embraced by installers looking for an easy, powerful and cost-effective solution for guaranteeing crisp, intelligible audio across entire installations.

And our commitment to running a green business is deeply embedded in our company DNA, through our desire to minimise our carbon footprint and produce loudspeakers that offer decades of reliable service and low power consumption.
