Founder member and director of Hand Held Audio, Mick Shepherd, is pleased with the new development. "We've been specialists in the high end touring and, more recently, corporate markets right from the very beginning and will continue to be so," he said, "but we hope that the website will enable us to reach a new sector of the market where we have never before had a presence, and yet for whom wireless and in-ear technology is becoming increasingly available. We'd like to pass on the benefits of our experience, our buying power and our considerable technical support resources to the MI and semi-professional sector."
The new site is designed to be a one-stop online store dedicated purely to radio microphones and all things wireless. As well as an extensive product catalogue from a wide range of manufacturers, the site will also offer comprehensive technical support and advice on how to go about setting up a system. "Wireless technology can be a bit daunting at first," says Mick, "so what we're aiming to do here is demystify the process and offer a good service into the bargain." Customers can still visit Hand Held Audio's existing site at the same address before the new site goes live on 1st May.
