A supplier of loudspeakers and high frequency devices since 1966, Eminence today announced industry veteran Damon Waller as European sales manager.
Waller brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise from his previous positions at Trace Elliot, where he eventually served as international sales manager; and Orange Amplification, where he worked his way up through the company to the position of managing director. In 2006 Waller oversaw the launch of the Orange Tiny Terror, the amp that changed the face of the electric guitar amplification and was voted ‘the number one most important guitar product of the past 30 years’ in 2014 by Music Radar. His background in international sales, brand marketing and positioning, sourcing and product conception make him the ideal choice to carry the Eminence brand forward in Europe.
“Europe represents the second largest market for musical instrument and professional audio applications.” said Chris Rose, president, Eminence Speaker. “While we have had an Eminence presence in Europe for many years, we have a need to further develop our OEM presence there. We are confident that Damon has the experience, the contacts and energy to develop the market in Europe for Eminence to its fullest.”
“As a guitar player and industry veteran I have known and used Eminence speakers for many years.” said Waller. “I am both proud and excited to be working with Eminence and hope to help them build upon their long history.”
