HARMAN’s JBL Professional Extends the Industry’s Most Comprehensive Loudspeaker Lineup with Integration of Duran Audio Products
In an announcement that merges the legendary HARMAN’s JBL Professional loudspeaker lineup with Duran Audio’s world-class array of loudspeakers for unique installed sound technology applications, JBL Professional is incorporating Duran Audio’s products into the JBL Professional brand. The move further strengthens JBL Professional’s standing as the optimal resource for installed audio loudspeakers of all varieties. The new products will be sold as the JBL Intellivox and JBL AXYS product series.
“We are excited to add these wonderful, leading-edge products to the JBL lineup,” said Rick Kamlet, Senior Market Manager for Intellivox Products, JBL Professional. “Intellivox is a name that is already synonymous with beam steering and speech intelligibility. The products are highly respected by consultants, installers and end-users throughout the world. What Duran Audio has developed in recent years goes way beyond beam steering and their digital directivity technologies also include advanced Beam Shaping techniques—an important and extremely valuable capability that is unique in the industry.”
“The synergy of JBL Professional and Duran Audio is a thrilling development and we strongly feel that distributing our products through JBL Professional’s extensive sales and distribution organization will open doors to many more customers around the globe utilizing our products,” said Nick Screen, Sales Director, Duran Audio B.V.
Intellivox loudspeakers are known for delivering unmatched fidelity in some of the most challenging and prestigious venues around the world, where speech intelligibility is a paramount requirement. The addition of Duran Audio to HARMAN’s portfolio of commercial audio and lighting technology companies underscores HARMAN’s strategy to complement continued growth through targeted acquisitions in adjacent technology and product areas across all geographic and vertical markets.
JBL Intellivox products will be on show at the HARMAN stand at ISE 2014.
