Krix Appoints New National Sales Manager for Australian Market

South Australian manufacturer Krix has announced the appointment of Gerrit Ryan as the company's new National Sales Manager – Consumer Products, for the Australian market.

Gerrit Ryan brings with him over three decades of experience in the audiovisual industry, spanning specialist retail, custom installations, account management, brand management, and general management. His impressive background and passion for music, audio, and technology make him a natural fit to lead Krix's sales efforts nationwide.

Ryan will be succeeding Don MacKenzie, who has decided to scale back his hours after an outstanding career with Krix. Don will continue contributing to the company by taking on special projects, ensuring a seamless transition and ongoing success.

Gerrit Ryan told StereoNET:

Krix is a great Australian success story, driven by passion, innovation, and integrity. They have cultivated a community of loyal dealers and fanatical owners. I look forward to joining the team and contributing to their legacy,

The transition to the new role will begin in February. Over several weeks, Don and Gerrit will embark on a nationwide roadshow, meeting with dealers and strengthening relationships across Australia.

Krix added:

We are confident that Gerrit's leadership will continue to build on the company's reputation for exceptional audio performance and outstanding customer service, further solidifying Krix as a key player in the audio industry.

Krix celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2024, and since 1974, Krix has become synonymous with innovation, quality, and a passion for exceptional sound in both commercial cinema and residential audio worldwide.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
