Electro-Voice and Dynacord have been part of the Jands lineup for years, but the relationship reached a new milestone this year. Jands has now been appointed exclusive distributor for Electro-Voice portable loudspeakers, Electro-Voice microphones, and Electro-Voice & Dynacord professional installed sound systems across Australia and New Zealand.

The announcement came as a natural next step for a relationship built over many years, a proof of a trusted position the two companies have built together in the market. On the Electro-Voice side, Mark Swindell, Business Manager – Oceania, echoed that sentiment, noting that the expanded appointment gives customers and partners a clearer, more aligned go-to-market approach across both the professional and portable product lines.

For installers, rental companies, retailers, and integrators already working with either brand, the practical takeaway is continuity paired with added scale — the same trusted gear, now backed by a distribution structure built to grow with the market.

The headline product at the show was the world premiere of EVIDn, a new family of PoE+ networked loudspeakers aimed squarely at commercial installation projects. Daniel Caldentey, Global Product Manager, Installed Speakers, was present at the booth every day to discuss the benefits of a PoE loudspeaker family with show visitors.

Built around a shared internal PoE+ module architecture, the nine-model range spans ceiling, surface-mount, and pendant formats — with ceiling models offered in both standard and low-profile versions, and the surface-mount model rated IP65 for indoor or outdoor use.

Electro-Voice and Jands weren't the only story on the floor. Audio Brands Australia, another Keenfinity Group partner, held its own stand at the show, putting the group's Public Address and Conferencing solutions front and centre. Together with the Electro-Voice and Jands news, it made for a strong showing from the Keenfinity family at Integrate Sydney — spanning installed and portable sound, public address, and conferencing under one roof.

Between the expanded distribution agreement and the EVIDn premiere, Integrate Sydney marked a strong statement of intent from Keenfinity Group brands and ANZ Partners: continued investment in the ANZ audio market, and a product roadmap built for where the industry is heading next.
