Amek, DAR, Soundcraft Merge UK Operations

Amek, DAR, and Soundcraft have merged their operations in the UK. Amek has already shared a distribution facility (HPNA) with Soundcraft and BSS Audio in the US for several years.

Soundcraft sales director Adrian Curtis now also takes overall responsibility for sales of Amek and DAR with his existing team of Jon Ridel (Middle East and Asia), Karl Chapman (Europe) and Trevor Coley (UK and Ireland) heading up regional sales for the three brands. Inder Biant joins the team as product specialist, and there are plans to strengthen the team further with new market and product specialists. All marketing activities for the group come under David Neal.

Manufacturing and production of the current line-up of Amek and DAR products is being integrated into the Potters Bar facilities that already house Soundcraft and BSS Audio.

Soundcraft, the British manufacturer of high-end mixing consoles serving live, broadcast, theatre and recording markets, is distributed in the US by Harman Pro North America, a subsidiary of Harman International.
