Jordan O'BrienBoth Pulse Cinemas and Connected Distribution are set to distribute RTI products in the UK, representing a major expansion in the availability of RTI in the region. The deal comes after Pulse-Eight was named the UK’s master distributor for RTI products in the UK, and will see Pulse Cinemas and Connected Distribution join Invision in distributing the brand.
Pulse Cinemas and Connected Distribution will begin taking orders for RTI products from June 1, 2019. They will join the existing product portfolios offered by both distributors, which includes Pulse-Eight and ProAudio.
Martin Ellis, Managing Director of Pulse-Eight, noted, “Today is a great day to introduce new partners at the EI Live show in Farnborough, we are here with RTI dealer experience team members from RTI and excited to show off their latest innovations.”
RTI and Pulse-Eight have long been partners, having first joined forces in 2018. At that time, RTI announced that it would carry Pulse-Eight products in the US, although they would be branded RTI. Now, Pulse-Eight is the one carrying RTI products, although the brand will remain the same in this instance.
Phil Hansen, Connected Distribution’s Director, said, “We are delighted to add RTI to our portfolio of distributed audio and visual products. This powerful and hugely flexible platform will enable our customers to provide unparalleled personalised system control to their end-user clients.” He continues, “Used in conjunction with the HD video products we supply from Pulse-Eight and our highly regarded audio brands, RTI underlines our offering as the one stop shop for the custom installation sector.”
Ben Lancaster, UK Sales Manager of Pulse Cinemas, concluded, “Adding RTI to our extensive portfolio of quality Audio Visual brands gives our dealers a vital new ingredient to provide their clients with the ultimate home cinema experience. The product will soon be installed in our world class demonstration facilities at Pulse Cinemas HQ in Stansted; extensive training will be offered for our dealers looking to deliver clients a control solution that is simple to use and effortless for installers to programme. Contact the Pulse Cinemas team for pricing; we think dealers old and new will be rather pleased.”
