Boston Acoustics, Denon Team Up for First Bundle

Speaker manufacturer Boston Acoustics and home entertainment component manufacturer Denon Electronics announce their first-ever joint consumer cross-promotion, scheduled for this summer.

In the three-tiered bundle promotion, which will run from June 28 through August 9, 2009, retailers who carry both Denon and Boston Acoustics products can provide substantial savings to customers who purchase any Denon A/V receiver in combination with certain premium 5-piece Boston Acoustics surround sound loudspeaker packages (including the Classic Series, Classic Series Home Theater Package or VS Series).

As part of the promotion, consumers who purchase a Denon receiver along with five Boston Acoustics Classic Series loudspeakers can receive either a free Boston Acoustics Classic Series Sub10 subwoofer or significant savings off their order, depending on which of three package offers they purchase (see disclaimers below).

The movie-themed summer campaign, featuring the tagline “Coming to a Home Theatre Near You” will be advertised prominently on both the Boston Acoustics and Denon websites (www.BostonAcoustics.com and www.Denon.com) and supported with an outreach to the owner’s clubs of both companies. In addition, a specially created landing page will explain the offer in full and feature a list of participating Denon and Boston Acoustics dealers.

Joe Stinziano, senior VP of sales and marketing for Boston Acoustics, states:

"This first-ever Boston Acoustics-Denon cross-promotion is our way of supporting our valued retail partners this summer by offering an easy and effective way for them to attach premium Boston Acoustics loudspeaker sales to Denon A/V receivers. Retailers can provide exciting and affordable solutions to their customers for dramatically upgrading their home entertainment systems. Both Denon and Boston Acoustics products separately offer tremendous performance. Together, they offer an unrivaled home theater experience. This cross-promotion gives our retailers a powerful opportunity to tell that story this summer – and generate sales.”
