What AUDIOFOCUS does
AUDIOFOCUS is a Belgian professional loudspeaker manufacturer founded around 2000 by Ann Leroy and headquartered in Achêne near Ciney, Belgium, where it produces 100% of its output in-house. The company designs, builds, installs, and services loudspeaker systems for touring/live sound and fixed installation, addressing PA rental companies, performance venues, houses of worship, hospitality and entertainment venues, and corporate AV customers. Its portfolio spans five loudspeaker categories — line arrays (ARES 8/12, ELIZ 210), point source (ISOLDE, VENU, CYRIS), constant curvature (ARRoCC, FRX), columns (CARYS), and subwoofers and stage monitors (115SG, 118SG/SGa, S/B/MT Series; EDGE, CM) — plus the proprietary SCiO Class D amplifier platform offered both as integrated modules in self-powered cabinets and as 1U A-Series rackmount units. Two distinctive proprietary technologies underpin the range: Tetracoil Double Voice Coil transducers (higher output and thermal capacity vs. conventional coils) and AMT (Air Motion Transformer) high-frequency drivers, complemented by the browser-based SCiO WebUI for remote monitoring and DSP control, M-Flexion tool-free dispersion adjustment, and naturally cardioid vent designs.
AUDIOFOCUS distributes exclusively through a network of territory-exclusive channel partners — Sequoia Audio (France), United Brands (Germany), Audio Link (Italy), Audio Acoustics (Netherlands), Sequoia Audio Belux (Belgium/Luxembourg), Trigon LLC (GCC), Sun Infonet (India), and Mega Sound (Vietnam) — selling B2B with quote-based pricing on a build-to-order basis. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of these integrated systems, with recurring touchpoints through installation, repair, and maintenance services. Recent strategic activity (the "Audiofocus 2.0" initiative launched in 2025) has paired an aggressive product refresh — ELIZ 210 line array, 115SG/118SG subwoofers, expanded CYRIS coax range, and dedicated installation variants of ARRoCC — with a multi-year distribution buildout across continental Europe, the Middle East, and South and Southeast Asia. The company is privately held, bootstrapped, and operates with a headcount in the 11-50 range.

Product offeringCore offering
AUDIOFOCUS designs, engineers, and manufactures professional touring and installation loudspeaker systems at its Belgium facility. The portfolio spans line arrays, point source, constant curvature, subwoofers, stage monitors, column PA systems, and proprietary Class D amplifiers with integrated DSP, sold globally through exclusive distribution partners to rental companies, integrators, and venues.
Product overview
AUDIOFOCUS is a Belgian manufacturer of professional touring and installation loudspeakers with over 20 years of experience, producing 100% in Belgium with worldwide distribution. The product portfolio spans five primary loudspeaker categories — line arrays (ELIZ 210, ARES 8, ARES 12), point source (ISOLDE, VENU, CYRIS), constant curvature (ARRoCC, FRX), subwoofers (115SG, 118SG/SGa, S Series, B Series, MT Series), and stage monitors (EDGE, CM Series) — plus the CARYS column PA system which uniquely employs AMT (Air Motion Transformer) drivers. Power amplification is delivered through the proprietary SCiO Class D platform, available both as integrated modules within self-powered cabinets (ELIZ 210a, MTSub 218a, CARYS C15LSa) and as the standalone A Series rackmount amplifiers (A 704, A 1504, A 3004). AUDIOFOCUS's Tetracoil Double Voice Coil technology is a signature feature deployed across multiple product lines, enhancing power handling and reducing distortion. The portfolio serves both touring/rental and fixed installation markets, with dedicated installation variants of most product families featuring simplified rigging, aesthetic refinements, and clean-line enclosures. Control and monitoring across powered products is handled via the SCiO browser-based WebUI. The company also distributes selected Powersoft amplifier models as part of its offering.
