Erikson Audio Now Canadian Distributor for Ferrofish Products ERIKSON AUDIO’S TIM MARSHALL Ferrofish, a German manufacturer of audio solutions like the A32 Dante AD/DA con- verter and Verto Series ADAT/MADI/Dante network solutions, has named Erikson Audio as its exclusive distributor for Canada. “We’ve been carrying select Ferrofish models for some time,” says Tim Marshall, product manager for Erikson Audio. “Their association with RME, another brand we represent in Canada, allowed us to handle the occasional Ferrofish sale on a case-by- case basis. Now, with a regular stream of new, innovative, and well-placed prod- ucts coming from Ferrofish, we saw the opportunity for a more formal distribution relationship with them moving forward.” For more information, contact Erikson Audio: 514-457-2555, info@eriksonaudio. com, www.eriksonaudio.com.
