AUSTRALIA – NEW ZEALAND: Meyer Sound has appointed Jands Pty Ltd as its exclusive distributor for Australia and New Zealand, marking a significant development for the professional audio landscape across the region. The partnership brings together two long-established industry names with deep roots in live sound, touring, performing arts, and venue technology, while also formalising a relationship that stretches back decades.

The appointment sees Jands taking responsibility for market development, sales, technical support, and service for Meyer Sound’s complete product portfolio across both territories. The partnership will support customers operating throughout the entertainment, live touring, venue, performing arts, and hospitality sectors, as demand for premium professional audio solutions across Australia and New Zealand continues to grow.

For Jands, the partnership also carries strong historical significance. The company’s connection with Meyer Sound dates back to its early encounter with the iconic MSL-4 loudspeaker system during a major theatrical production — a moment that would ultimately influence the company’s evolution within the professional audio industry.

“Meyer Sound stands out for its innovation, integrity and community focus, values we share. Now formally representing Meyer Sound feels natural and meaningful, and we look forward to supporting our customers and growing the market together. We are incredibly proud to be appointed as the Meyer Sound distributors for Australia and New Zealand, a partnership that continues a relationship spanning decades,” says Paul Mulholland, Executive Chairman at Jands; as he continues, “Jands began as a rental company, building our own speaker cabinets, until a major theatrical production led us to Meyer’s MSL-4 systems, a decision that helped shape our business. Meyer Sound stands out for its innovation, integrity and community focus, values we share. Now formally representing Meyer Sound feels natural and meaningful, and we look forward to supporting our customers and growing the market together.”

According to Meyer Sound, the move reflects both the increasing momentum of the brand within the region and the need for a stronger local distribution infrastructure capable of supporting long-term market growth and customer engagement.

“Demand for Meyer Sound across Australia and New Zealand has never been stronger,” says Meyer Sound Sales Manager, APAC, Owen Ironside. “As the market continues to grow, it’s clear that we need a robust and future-focused distribution partner to ensure we can support our customers at the highest level. Jands is an icon of the industry, established internationally as a benchmark for distribution. Our shared commitment to quality, innovation, and customer experience makes it an ideal fit for Meyer Sound, and we are delighted to have the opportunity to now work side by side.”

Jands will officially begin representing Meyer Sound across Australia and New Zealand from May 18, 2026, with customers able to engage directly with the company for product enquiries, demonstrations, technical support, and related services.

“This new direction enables us to take the brand to the next level across Australia and New Zealand while strengthening the excellent work of our established dealer network, now supported through Jands,” adds Ironside.
