THAT Corporation Appoints Profusion plc as Spanish Distributor

Milford , Massachusetts -- Solidifying its relationship with Profusion plc, THAT Corporation is pleased to announce the appointment of Profusion Spain as its official Spanish distributor. Profusion plc, headquartered outside London, has long anchored THAT's UK and European distribution network. The new appointment reflects both THAT and Profusion's continued growth throughout the continent, and their commitment to Europe as an audio design and manufacturing center.

“Over the years Profusion has demonstrated its long reach in the European market,” said Les Tyler, President of THAT Corporation. “Their track record of satisfying customers and demonstrated commitment to the Spanish market made this a relatively easy decision for us.”

“We opened the Profusion Spain office in Barcelona staffed by Guillermo Hidalgo and Gabriel Medrano, both of whom possess strong audio backgrounds and a customer-service mentality,” commented Keith Persin, Managing Director for Profusion.  “As in the UK, Germany, and elsewhere, we have used those assets to build a strong customer base for THAT’s products in Spain, and expect continued growth there with THAT’s latest round of new product introductions.”

THAT Corporation, founded in 1989, provides high-performance analog integrated circuits to the professional audio manufacturer, and is best known for its line of IC voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCAs), Analog Engines^®, and RMS-level detectors used throughout the pro audio industry. The company is headquartered in Milford, Massachusetts, with offices in Tokyo, Japan and Milpitas, California. In addition to its IC business, THAT also licenses noise reduction technology to the TV broadcast and reception industries.

Profusion plc was founded in 1989 as a distributor of electronic components, with an emphasis on audio technologies.
