Linear Acoustic has named Chris Shaw as Vice President of Global Sales, Television and Martin Dyster as Vice President of Business Development/Television. With the promotion of Dan Chuey to Vice President of Engineering & Production, these appointments are designed to ‘fortify its efforts in the broadcast space’.
‘With Chris, Martin, and Dan onboard, it should be obvious that we are growing in some exciting new directions,’ says Tim Carroll, founder of Linear Acoustic and CTO of the Telos Alliance.
‘This also bolsters world-wide sales and support efforts for our already excellent product lineup, further demonstrating our commitment to the industry on a more global level.’
Shaw brings an extensive financial and management background to his new position. He comes to Linear Acoustic from Cobalt Digital, where he joined as a Sales Manager and eventually gained the position of Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing. He also spent eight years at Wohler Technologies as Director of Sales. He began his career in the UK and relocated to the US to hold positions including Executive VP of Snell & Wilcox in California.
With more than 28 years’ experience, Dyster brings a solid technical knowledge base to a role where he will be instrumental in expanding the company’s Audio over IP (AoIP) business. He comes to Linear Acoustic via TSL Products after being part of TSL Products’ sister company, TSL Systems, where he oversaw some of the world’s highest profile TV broadcast infrastructure projects.
Having previously been at the umbrella company to Linear Acoustic, The Telos Alliance, Chuey began as Engineering Director at Telos Systems before being promoted to Vice President of Engineering/R&D of the Telos Alliance, and then Vice President of Engineering, Processing. Prior to his tenure at Telos, he built upon his success as Manufacturing Engineer at WinTronics Inc to become owner and Director of Engineering for 12 years.
