25th April 2017 – Following their success in acquiring distribution of Scandinavian loudspeaker brand Audio Pro late last year, Hama UK are set to further demonstrate their growing commitment to the audio industry through the creation of another high-profile partnership. From 25th April 2017, they will be joining forces with revolutionary British sound bar manufacturers Orbitsound.

Understated, British, simple elegance, intelligent, unpretentious. These 5 core values have lay at the very heart of the Orbitsound brand since its inception in 2005 and have undoubtedly contributed to the rapidly expanding popularity of the brand within the UK market. Delivering exceptional audio through an entirely unique, patented airSOUND™ system, Orbitsound products passionately pursue founder and experienced audio technician Ted Fletcher’s original aim to ‘improve audio enjoyment’, whilst providing ‘superior sound that can be enjoyed by all’.

With Hama UK set to take over distribution of the Bar A70 and ONE P70 models and with the promise of new products in the pipeline to follow later in the year, there could be few people more enthusiastic about taking on the Orbitsound brand than Senior Product Manager and self-confessed technophile, Ben Jones. Speaking out about the impending partnership, he said: “Leading the way in British audio innovation, Orbitsound’s airSOUND™ technology has completely redefined the listening experience over the past decade, eliminating the traditional un-balanced sound from separate left and right stereo speakers and creating a complete panoramic sound experience. No more ‘sweet spots’, just exceptional, high-definition audio available at any location within the room. The technology is second to none and Hama are privileged to be a part of its legacy.”

Already established within several big-name retail outlets within the UK, Hama UK now hope to continue to drive the brand onwards and upwards through improved delivery to the independents, with the help of their regional on-the-road sales team, in addition to thinking ‘outside the box’ to target alternative areas of custom such as boutiques, schools, hotels and small businesses.

“We are joining Hama UK at an incredibly exciting time.” said Richard Williams, Managing Director of Operations at Orbitsound. “Orbitsound is at the forefront of innovation, bringing airSOUND™ technology to the Consumer technology market. Hama provides an unrivalled level of expertise and their Nationwide staff have the knowledge that comes from being genuine enthusiasts. We feel we have a distributor that understands our target and discerning audience, and will help us reach markets and customers we haven’t been able to in the past. We are confident that this new partnership will help our journey towards becoming a significant audio technology brand.”

The Soundbar Proving Size Isn’t Everything

As sound-bars are becoming ever increasingly more popular, the Orbitsound M9 stands out as one of the smallest and most compact on the market. At just 30cm wide, this little speaker will fit almost anywhere in the room and will deliver a whopping 200 watts of power along with the super-slim wireless subwoofer. The clever side-facing ‘spatial’ speakers will create an impressive amount of width to the sound, and you may find yourself asking… ‘Is that really coming from that tiny box?’
