Audio Partnership

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Audio Partnership Plc is a British manufacturer of hi-fi, home cinema and home automation products, which was founded in 1994.

Brands[]

  • Cambridge Audio, which produces amplifiers, AV receivers and DVD players and recorders[1]
  • Mordaunt Short, a manufacturer of loudspeakers and subwoofers.[1][2]

Richer Sounds[]

Closely associated with Richer Sounds due to the exclusive retail distribution of many of its most well known products in the UK through the chain, Audio Partnership has produced many products over the years. However, Richer Sounds does not own Audio Partnership or Cambridge Audio, and Audio Partnership regional offices or other distributors are responsible for the sale of Audio Partnership products outside of the UK.

Products since 1994[]

Audio Partnership's products since 1994 include stereo amplifiers, CD players, digital-to-analogue (DAC) converters (namely the and series), tuners (both analogue and digital), loudspeakers, subwoofers and cables. In most recent years, the company branched out into home cinema, with an external 5.1 processor for older Dolby Pro-Logic amplifiers that have six-channel inputs, AV receivers as well as an extensive range of DVD players and recorders.

Manufacturer[]

Although the company is based in the UK, its products are manufactured in China to take advantage of lower labour costs.[3]
