Pioneer Professional reports successful year
- Details
The year began with the launch of XPRS2 series of powered loudspeakers, which couple the versatility and mobility of the original XPRS Series with elevated audio sound-performance and audio intelligibility. Demonstrations of XPRS2 at ISE in Barcelona were very well attended, with guests introduced to the concept of ‘Versatile XPRSion’ from lighter and even more competitively priced units. The speakers were in evidence at a number of eye-catching locations during the year, including Trevarefest in Norway.
XPRS2 were also popular supplements on some larger installs and live events. XY-Series continued to be in demand on multiple stages at large festivals such as Extrema and Pukkelpop - the latter benefitting from an ambitious immersive setup by KAGE Audio.
The Pioneer PRO Audio CM-Series of wall and ceiling-mounted commercial audio loudspeakers made a strong impact in 2023, building upon a reputation earned through a number of prestigious installs in recent years. CM-Series speakers found their way into yet more leading culinary hotspots across Europe, such as Auberge Napoleon in Meise, Bomaki in Milan and the recently opened Arcade at the Battersea Power Station site in London.
Federico Sidero, marketing executive at Pioneer Pro Audio comments: “We’ve enjoyed an exceptional year in 2023. It’s been great to see the reaction to the new XPRS2 range and the continued success of our professional and commercial lines.
“What has been particularly satisfying is the number of turnkey installations which feature products from across our range of loudspeakers. Most recently, for example, the install at the Arcade Battersea, which needed to cater for live music and DJ sets as well as background music, featured XY-Series, CM-Series and XPRS 10. We’re already looking forward to a busy 2024.”
