Management changes at Kling & Freitag

Germany - German manufacturer Kling & Freitag has announced that Michael Kinzel is the new managing director of the company. The changes are the result of the company's continued growth, with a larger company requiring a reappraisal of the management structure. In making their choice, Martin Kling and Jürgen Freitag decided to take somebody who knew the company well. Kinzel has worked with K&F for more than five years and supported Martin and Jürgen in the development of the reputation of the brand. Beside his new position, Kinzel will continue to be responsible for international sales.

Martin Kling remains in charge of the R&D department as the technical director, while Jürgen Freitag is taking care of the German key customers and is also responsible for special projects and customer support; among other projects he has recently finished a project which incolved the delivery of more than 200 loudspeaker systems to Austria. Kinzel's deputy will be Wolfgang Hache, who has been at K&F for more than 15 years, and was the very first employee of Kling & Freitag SoundSystems. K&F, one of the leading loudspeaker brands in the German market, now exports to 25 countries worldwide.
