Playback Distribution Brings PMC Speakers to new North American Venture

Industry veteran Rob Standley has announced the launch of his new venture, Playback Distribution LLC

Rob StandleyStandley brings a wealth of experience and expertise to this new endeavor. His track record includes key roles in some of the industry's most recognizable companies, where he has gained experience in premium consumer electronics retailing, custom integration, marketing, product development and manufacturing. 

PMC has appointed Playback Distribution as its new Home Audio distributor for the U.S. to make its award-winning hi-fi and custom installation products more widely available in this key market.

Rob Standley, Founder and President, told StereoNET:

We founded Playback Distribution because we believe that a well-executed music playback system has the power to inspire and transform the listener. We're excited to introduce Playback to that end. With our fresh approach to distribution, we're looking forward to helping brands reach new audiences while creating unforgettable experiences for entertainment enthusiasts.

Jeff Willcocks, PMC's CEO, added:

I am delighted and excited for us to be working with Rob and the team at Playback Distribution, a company with many years' experience and the perfect partner to take PMC further in the U.S. Home Audio and Custom Installation markets.

Standley's well-rounded understanding of market trends and channel strategy positions Playback Distribution as a forward-thinking player in the industry.

PMC's head of home audio, Dave Frost, told StereoNET:

I look forward to partnering with Rob and his team to provide the very best support as they further drive and deliver the brand in the U.S.

PMC launched its Prodigy speaker lineup at the Munich High End show earlier this year, offering a new entry-level to the PMC "bring the studio home" ethos.

At the launch, Willcocks said:

With these new loudspeakers, we have taken our knowledge, learnt over the past 30-plus years, and distilled it down into a duo of speakers that make the PMC performance available to many more people. It is one of the most significant product launches we have made, arguably second only to the launch of the fenestria.

Located in Indianapolis, Playback Distribution will specialize in high-end hi-fi, home theatre and custom installation markets. The distribution of PMC is the perfect addition to its current offering, providing high-quality loudspeakers that bring the studio-quality experience to the three areas of the business.
