UK-based audio mixing manufacturer Allen & Heath has confirmed a new distribution arrangement for the Spanish market, naming SeeSound as its exclusive partner for several key product categories.

The move covers Allen & Heath’s professional, musical instrument (MI), and installation product ranges across Spain. The company’s DJ product line is not included in the agreement and will continue to be handled in the region by Audio-Technica Iberia.

Allen & Heath is well established in live sound, touring, and installed audio, with digital and analogue mixing platforms used in concert venues, houses of worship, theatres, and event spaces worldwide. Details on its product portfolio remain available on the manufacturer’s official website at allen-heath.com.

Key announcement

Under the new agreement, Barcelona-based SeeSound will take responsibility for sales, technical support, and market development of Allen & Heath solutions throughout Spain, excluding the DJ segment.

Founded in 2004, SeeSound has been active in the Spanish professional AV sector for more than two decades, working across audio, lighting, video, and rigging. The company supplies solutions to rental firms, integrators, and fixed installations, including corporate, education, hospitality, and performance venues.

SeeSound managing director Nacho Alberdi said the company aims to support projects both technically and in terms of user experience, adding that SeeSound’s focus on technology and innovation aligns with Allen & Heath’s product approach. He described the brand as a logical addition to the company’s existing portfolio of professional AV manufacturers.

From the manufacturer’s side, Allen & Heath EMEA sales manager Spyros Pappas highlighted SeeSound’s experience and familiarity with current technologies and product trends. He said the partnership is intended to strengthen Allen & Heath’s presence in Spain by providing customers and channel partners with local expertise and support.

Industry impact

The appointment gives Allen & Heath a single, dedicated distributor for the bulk of its product range in Spain, potentially simplifying purchasing and support for rental houses, production companies, and system integrators.

For event technology providers, a consolidated distribution channel may translate into more consistent stock levels, clearer pricing structures, and closer technical backing for designs and deployments using Allen & Heath consoles and audio systems.

SeeSound’s existing position in the Spanish AV ecosystem could help Allen & Heath reach a broader network of resellers and integrators, particularly in the installation and corporate event sectors. It may also encourage tighter integration between audio, lighting, and video systems specified through a single distributor.

Why this matters

For live sound rental companies and event production teams in Spain, the new partnership has a few practical implications:

Streamlined access to products: A single distributor for professional and installation lines can help centralise ordering and logistics.
Local technical support: On-the-ground assistance for system design, configuration, and after-sales service is increasingly important as digital mixing and networked audio systems become more complex.
Closer link to manufacturers: A focused distributor can act as a bridge between end users and the manufacturer, relaying market feedback and helping tailor training, demos, and product education to local needs.

At a time when events are relying on flexible, networked audio infrastructures for everything from corporate conferences to touring shows, stronger regional distribution can influence how quickly new technologies are adopted. Allen & Heath’s decision to work with SeeSound positions both companies to play a larger role in Spain’s live and installed audio market in the coming years.
