McIntosh Group partners Sevenoaks to build Sonus faber and McIntosh in the UK

The McIntosh Group has announced a partnership with leading UK Hi-Fi retailer Sevenoaks Sound & Vision. The move is expected to significantly raise the profile of McIntosh and Sonus faber audio equipment in the UK.

Distributor FineSounds UK says that the initial roll-out will see products introduced to eight owned Sevenoaks stores across the country. Chelsea, Brighton, Cambridge, Guildford, Norwich, Nottingham, Sevenoaks and Witham branches of Sevenoaks Sound & Vision will all stock McIntosh and Sonus faber products starting this summer.

Sonus faber is set to make its Sevenoaks debut in the coming weeks, with the Lumina, Sonetto, and Olympica Nova loudspeaker lines. McIntosh’s MHT300, MA7200, MA252 and MHA200 will all follow with an expected launch date of August 2023. In addition to these initial in-store lines, Sevenoaks will also introduce new key Mcintosh and Sonus faber products to their online storefront.

This product line and store expansion is said to be the start of what both brands anticipate to be ‘a healthy and productive partnership’.

Andy Oattes, Fine Sounds Country Manager, says: “Rob Lawley and the entire Sevenoaks team share our passion for bringing truly world class audio products to the UK HiFi market, and this partnership offers us the opportunity to share McIntosh and Sonus faber audio solutions with an even wider array of UK customers, amplifying life’s memorable moments for more music lovers than ever before.”

The shared goal is to see a growing range of McIntosh and Sonus faber’s product lines available in all Sevenoaks stores across the country.
