The new team will focus on Apart, K-array and the other existing product groups within the Sennheiser family.

This expansion means that Syntec will be able to focus new energies into the Installed Sound market while maintaining their efforts in the Professional Audio and MI areas.

Syntec professional division manager David Bell heads up both teams.

Two new account managers have been appointed to the Installed Sound team: Sam Wood has been appointed in New South Wales and Paul Shephard has been appointed in Victoria. Gary Foster will support the Installed Sound team as product manager.

Syntec’s more traditional markets, being the Pro Audio and MI markets will continue to be addressed by Peter Hall in New South Wales and Northern Territory; Jason Hawkins in Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania; Cliff Chandler in Queensland; and Stan Johnson in Western Australia. James Waldron has been appointed as product manager for professional products.

Cliff Chandler and Stan Johnson will also be responsible for the Installed Sound markets in their states and Jason Hawkins will be responsible for Installed Sound in South Australia and Tasmania.

“Both Apart & K-Array are relatively new in Australia & New Zealand and need a concentrated effort to cement them into the markets, along with the Sennheiser Installed Sound Products. At the same time we need to ensure that our more traditional customers continue to enjoy the same levels of service that they expect and deserve from us,” Syntec managing director Robert Sloss says.

“This expansion allows us to achieve these two goals, and the experienced staff that have joined us recently should help us to hit the ground running,” Syntec operations manager Michael Sloss says.
