Mark Glazier sees opportunity during the course of our country’s economic recession. Glazier is the president of Wisdom Audio; with his company’s corporate headquarters newly expanded, he recently invited international distributors from 14 different countries to Wisdom Audio’s first Sage Series international training event in Carson City, Nevada. “Even in this worldwide economic downturn we find ourselves in, custom is alive and well outside the U.S.,” said Glazier. “Interest in high-end overseas marine and yacht instillations, as well as installations in concrete and stone walls where we have an ideal mounting solution, were considered when designing and evaluating the Sage Series.”  That is why Wisdom Audio decided to hold this event for distributors from around the world.

The training attendees were some of the first to experience Wisdom’s new sound room, which showcases all of the Sage Series in-wall and on-wall architectural models.  The company felt it was necessary to create an on-site facility to educate and train its dealers. It was important to demonstrate to dealers the multiple configurations, including speakers, subwoofers, integrated Audyssey Laboratories room correction software, and dedicated electronics. The Sage Series was constructed to perform efficiently throughout the world. This is significant for attendees, as this series of architectural speakers was made to meet all of their safety standards, as well as their distinctive environments and structural needs (along with installation parameters and climatic considerations).  Wisdom Audio’s next international training is scheduled for July 2009.
