Inside ADI-Sony Partnership

ADI's recent announcement that it will soon be carrying Sony products does not just mean greater access for dealers to more SKUs from the well-known brand, but it represents a major focus by the distributor on the A/V market. One of the problems facing many CE pros with flat panel lines, especially during the holiday season, has been lack of access due to limited inventory. This new distribution deal eliminates that problem, according to ADI president Michael Flink. "Sony dealers have to be authorized, which makes sense for Magnolia HiFi,…
