New Management Team Takes HK Audio

On January 1, an internal management team took over the management of the German manufacturer HK Audio. Company founder and managing director Lothar Stamer has initiated a generational change. The future management team consists of three long-standing executives: Christian Jordan, chief sales officer and chief marketing officer; Holger Kartes, chief technology officer and chief operations officer; and Stefan Persch, chief financial officer. The management tasks will be transferred to the new leadership trio gradually and in close consultation from the beginning of 2026.

"HK Audio has always been more than just a company to me -- it is an idea, an attitude, and a promise to our customers," says Stamer. "With Christian Jordan, Holger Kartes, and Stefan Persch, we are handing over responsibility to a team that knows the brand, the market, and our values down to the last detail. I am convinced that HK Audio is excellently positioned for the future with this leadership."

In a statement, the members of the new team say, "We are taking on this task with great respect for what has been achieved and with a clear view of what lies ahead. HK Audio is on an international growth trajectory. Our joint task will be to further build on this momentum -- with strong products, reliable partnerships, and a clear strategic focus."

HK Audio is represented in the US by KMC Music, based in Garfield, New Jersey; in Canada by Erikson Audio, in Baie D'Urfe, Quebec.
