Radial Engineering Ltd has been acquired by Mike Belitz, President and CEO of Ultimate Support Systems.
Established in 1991, Radial Engineering originally developed a range of cable products under outgoing President and CEO, Peter Janis. The release of the company’s first direct box (DI) in 1996 – the Radial JDI – marked the beginning of a line of innovations that saw Radial become a leading name in premium direct boxes and other audio solutions.
In the intervening years, the Radial brand family and distribution network has grown to include a catalogue of brands, that now includes Primacoustic, Tonebone, Reamp, Hafler, Dynaco, Iso-Max and Jensen Transformers.
Ultimate Support and Radial Engineering Ltd. will enjoy shared strategic and logistical advantages under leadership of Belitz; with wider availability to retailers, distributors, and end-users all over the world.
‘I have always been passionate about premium accessories in the music industry,’ says Belitz, now President and CEO of Ultimate Support Systems and Radial Engineering Ltd. ‘Instruments come in and out of fashion, but musicians and audio professionals will always need well designed, high-quality solutions. Ownership of Ultimate Support Systems and Radial Engineering Ltd will offer incredible possibilities for the future.’
