What Studio Technologies does

Studio Technologies, Inc. is a privately held US electronics manufacturer founded in 1978 and headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, that designs and builds professional audio, intercom, and fiber-optic transport hardware for the broadcast, stadium, and corporate AV markets. Its product portfolio spans roughly eleven categories organized around Dante audio-over-Ethernet and SMPTE ST 2110 compliance, including announcer and producer consoles (Model 200-Series and the newer Model 553X-Series), Dante-enabled beltpacks (Model 362A through Model 385), broadcast support modules, StudioComm loudspeaker monitor control systems (Models 791-795), Live-Link fiber-optic remote camera interface systems, intercom and IFB systems, and protocol-bridging products such as the Model 5682 ST 2110-to-Dante bridge. Underlying technology integrates Dante, AES67, Ravenna, and ST 2110 standards with Power-over-Ethernet powering, firmware-managed configuration via the STcontroller application, and US-based manufacturing.

The company sells exclusively through a hardware sales model, distributing products via a global network of authorized resellers and distributors alongside dedicated direct sales contacts for US, international, and European customers. End customers include television networks and radio broadcasters (with named case-study references spanning SiriusXM, Westwood One, NBC, Netflix, and Food Network productions including NFL games, March Madness, Super Bowl Radio Row, and The Masters), stadium and live-event venues, university athletics programs (Jacksonville State University, Harvard University Athletics), eSports production teams, and corporate AV integrators. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with no recurring software or service revenue stream indicated in the source data. Studio Technologies is actively operating and continues to invest in product development, having launched multiple new SKUs across 2025 and into 2026, alongside maintaining trade show presence at NAB and ISE for demand generation.

Direct peers

• Tieline Technology: Tieline specializes in audio over IP codecs and remote broadcast solutions used by radio broadcasters and sports producers. It overlaps with Studio Technologies' mobile broadcast and Dante-based remote production use cases, though more codec-centric than intercom-centric.
• Clear-Com: Clear-Com (an HME company) manufactures professional intercom systems, party-line beltpacks, and IFB solutions for broadcast, live events, and stadium production. It is the most direct competitor to Studio Technologies' intercom beltpacks, IFB products, and announcer consoles.
• RTS Intercom Systems (Bosch): RTS, part of Bosch Communications, manufactures matrix intercom systems, keypanels, and party-line intercoms for broadcast and production environments. It directly overlaps with Studio Technologies' intercom beltpack and IFB product lines, particularly for television sports and mobile broadcast.
• Comrex: Comrex makes audio codecs and remote broadcast hardware (such as BRIC-Link and LiveShot) for radio and television remotes. While not a direct intercom competitor, it serves the same broadcast sports and live-event customers with adjacent audio-over-IP hardware.
• Riedel Communications: Riedel Communications provides intercom systems (Artist, Bolero), fiber-optic signal transport, and broadcast audio networking products used by major broadcasters and live-event producers. Riedel competes head-to-head with Studio Technologies in intercom beltpacks, fiber transport, and ST 2110 workflows.
• Wheatstone Corporation: Wheatstone manufactures professional broadcast audio mixing consoles, processing, and AoIP networking products for radio and television. Its audio networking and console products compete with Studio Technologies' StudioComm monitor control and Dante-enabled interface lines.
• Glensound: Glensound is a UK-based manufacturer of professional broadcast audio equipment including Dante-enabled intercoms, commentators' units, and audio interfaces. Its commentator consoles and on-air beltpacks directly compete with Studio Technologies' Model 200- and 553X-series announcer consoles.
• Sonifex: Sonifex manufactures broadcast audio equipment including commentator units, audio interfaces, and Dante-enabled IFB/intercom products for radio and television. Its commentator consoles and talkback systems overlap with Studio Technologies' announcer console portfolio.

Others

• Audinate: Audinate is the developer of Dante audio-over-IP technology, which underpins most Studio Technologies products. It is not a direct competitor but a critical enabling technology partner; any vertical integration by Audinate into announcer consoles or intercom endpoints would represent a competitive threat.

Emerging players

• JK Audio: JK Audio manufactures broadcast audio interfaces, telephone hybrids, and intercom adapters used by radio and podcast producers. It overlaps with Studio Technologies' broadcast support modules and intercom interfaces but at a smaller scale and with a focus on telephone and podcast workflows.
