Blackwell is well known throughout the industry from his time with Sennheiser UK and, more recently, Harman Pro. Commenting on the move Blackwell said: "I have followed the progress of CUK since it was started, and have been impressed by the market penetration they have achieved. They have a great product portfolio, with a whole range of unique and advanced solutions, and a refreshing attitude where customer service isn't just marketing spiel, but an intrinsic part of the way they operate at all levels."
Blackwell continues: "On the personal side, it also offers me great variety across a broad spectrum of pro audio, from the high volume sales of hot products like Audica and InOut to the more specialist and larger contracts and installations with Community, DIS and Digigram."
