Wisycom, DPA and Austrian Audio, join the Audiotonix group

Big news in the pro audio world. Audiotonix has announced its agreement to acquire three major players in microphones, headphones and wireless audio technology: DPA Microphones, Wisycom, and Austrian Audio. The deal is currently awaiting regulatory approval and is expected to close in the first half of 2026.

A Strategic Expansion

This acquisition marks a significant move for Audiotonix, extending the company's reach beyond its established console and production system portfolio into the upstream world of audio capture and wireless transmission. The three brands will join Audiotonix's impressive roster that already includes Allen & Heath, DiGiCo, Solid State Logic, Sound Devices, and Slate Digital, among others.

The Brands Joining the Family

DPA Microphones, brings over 60 years of Danish precision engineering to the table. Known for exceptional sound quality, consistency, and durability, DPA's condenser microphones are trusted in classical recording, theatre, broadcast, and touring applications where accuracy is non-negotiable.

Wisycom, the Italian wireless audio specialist, is renowned for high-end RF systems that solve complex spectrum challenges in broadcast, film, and live production. When signal stability and spectrum efficiency matter most, Wisycom delivers.

Austrian Audio, founded in Vienna in 2017 by former AKG engineers, has quickly established itself with innovative microphones, headphones, and audio tools that combine cutting-edge design with deep acoustical heritage.

Why This Matters

For professionals in touring, broadcast, and production, this consolidation signals tighter integration between capture, wireless transmission, and recording workflows. Many customers already use products from these brands alongside other Audiotonix companies, particularly Sound Devices users who demand the same level of reliability and quality throughout their signal chain.

As James Gordon, CEO of Audiotonix, notes: "With the development work we have been investing in with Sound Devices, it makes technological sense to add Wisycom to the team. The next logical step is to move closer to the performer with microphones."

What to Expect

All three brands will maintain their individual identities, distribution networks, and support structures. The focus is on shared engineering resources, complementary technologies, and long-term investment rather than immediate restructuring. For customers, this means continued access to the premium products they trust, with the potential for enhanced collaboration and innovation across the Audiotonix portfolio.

The acquisition is part of a broader trend of consolidation in the pro audio sector, with major groups building end-to-end portfolios from microphones to mixing consoles and beyond.
