ANAHEIM, Calif., Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Electrotec Audio<\/u><\/a> won Best in Show<\/strong> at the 2026 NAMM Show in Anaheim, California, for its Stage One<\/u><\/strong><\/a> wireless portable speaker and Stage One XB<\/u><\/strong><\/a> wireless subwoofer, marking a breakthrough in battery-powered professional audio.<\/p>\n

Electrotec Audio was founded in London in 1984 by legendary live sound producer Rikki Farr<\/strong> (audio production for Rod Stewart, Rush, Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, Guns N Roses). After decades shaping iconic live performances, Farr returned to reimagine professional sound for a new era combining concert-grade performance with true portability.<\/p>\n

The NAMM Best in Show award is presented annually to the most innovative product exhibited, selected from more than a thousand instruments, microphones, PA systems, and professional audio technologies showcased at the event.<\/p>\n

Rikki Farr, Co-Founder, CEO, and Co-Designer of Electrotec Audio, said:<\/p>\n

What set Stage One apart was that nobody else could deliver this level of sound quality, then pick it up, put it in a car, and play anywhere perfectly. At moderate levels you can play for over 100 hours. When you need full power, it delivers concert-level performance without distortion. The response has been phenomenal.<\/p>\n

Stage One is a true three-way, triple-amplified system delivering professional output in a compact, battery-powered form. Designed and acoustically tuned in the United States, its touring-grade enclosure is engineered for durability, weather resistance, and precise acoustic control.<\/p>\n

Wireless performance is powered by SKAA and SKAA Pro<\/strong>, delivering ultra-low-latency wireless audio. SKAA Pro enables near-instant synchronization for live performance, while standard SKAA allows up to five speakers<\/strong> to be linked wirelessly with tight timing and stability far beyond conventional Bluetooth solutions.<\/p>\n

The Stage One XB<\/strong> wireless subwoofer expands the system into a full-range solution, delivering deep, controlled low-frequency energy while remaining fully wireless and battery powered.<\/p>\n

Electrotec systems are used by DJs, bands, churches and religious gatherings, event planners, schools, public-service events, home entertainment users, and outdoor festivals.<\/p>\n

Each system is backed by a 2-year warranty<\/strong> and 90-day satisfaction guarantee<\/strong>. Electrotec Audio maintains a signed agreement with DHL Express Worldwide<\/strong>, enabling delivery from California to most countries within approximately three business days.<\/p>\n

MSRP:<\/strong>
Stage One $1,499 USD
Stage One XB $1,399 USD<\/p>\n
