VUE Audiotechnik appoints Ron Vogel

VUE Audiotechnik has chosen Ron Vogel Audio (RVA), based in Zwanenburg, as its exclusive dealer for the Netherlands. 

RVA will facilitate distributor-like services such as sales demonstrations and service of VUE Audiotechnik products across the country, as well as specify VUE products for various permanent installation projects. 

The relationship will boost VUE’s presence across Europe, working closely with VUE Europa in Germany and augmenting existing distributor offices in Italy and Norway. 

Owner Ron Vogel has worked in the pro audio industry for more than 40 years as a front-of-house engineer, monitor engineer and tour manager for local and international bands. He chose to quit the road and became a sales manager for a major rental company in Europe, and in 2007 started his own business. His company evolved from the sales department of Focus Show Equipment BV, which was formed in 1975 by the production staff of the Dutch band Focus. In December 2009, Vogel changed the name of the business to Ron Vogel Audio, becoming the exclusive representative for many renowned manufacturers of pro audio equipment.

“Being familiar with the people at VUE Audiotechnik, hearing about the technology and hearing the VUE loudspeakers made it an easy decision to represent VUE when the opportunity arose,” begins Vogel. “The marriage of VUE’s design concepts and use of innovative materials result in excellent sound quality.”

RVA’s inventory currently includes VUE’s h-Class flagship line of premium loudspeakers. All models in the h-Class include a Neodymium compression driver boasting VUE’s Truextent beryllium diaphragm for increased sonic performance over traditional diaphragm materials. 

The h-Class is internally powered by onboard Class D amplification, which feature integrated DSP and Dante networking, easily controlled with VUE’s own SystemVUE software. The h-Class subwoofers feature ACM™ Active Compliance Management technology— a hybrid enclosure design combining both band-pass and vented designs.

“The people at VUE Audiotechnik are well known for their innovation in sound, which appeals to many customers,” continues Vogel. “We’ve been impressed with the performance we are getting from VUE loudspeakers for both music and speech, and we have received many positive reactions from our clients. We’re very excited to be working with VUE.”
