“Tannoy’s decision to entrust the fortunes of its historic brand to APG reflects our commitment to build a business that operates as three distinct, specialist streams, focussing on consumer hi-fi, Pro Audio and installed sound respectively,” says APG’s managing director Ken Dwyer.

“We are very proud to be able to work with Tannoy. I am confident that Tannoy’s portfolio of innovative, high-quality products will complement our existing loudspeaker offerings, and strengthen our presence in the consumer, professional and installed sound markets.”

In announcing its appointment to distribute Tannoy, APG acknowledged Syntec (the outgoing distributor) for its contribution to the brand over many years, and pledged to work with Syntec to ensure that the transition will be smooth for all parties.
