It was a great feeling to be back in Anaheim for NAMM 2022! The previous show had been in January of 2020, just before the world shut its doors. In addition to the sE team being face-to-face for the first time in two years, it was a pleasure to meet with some of our artists & partners from around the world in person, and to be able to shake some hands again. It almost felt like old times.
The weather was perfect. It was a restorative week for our team. We were already on top of the world, and then the icing on the cake: Our V7 Vintage Edition dynamic microphone won a TEC award for Technical Achievement! This makes it the second consecutive year a member of the V Series family of microphones was awarded a TEC Award.
Thomas Stubics, our Global Product Line Manager, and Andy Sanchez, our Marketing Manager, were present to accept the award on behalf of everyone who contributes in the creation of our products; our family of artists, the global network of distributors and dealers and last but certainly not least the team at sE!
Our sincerest thanks to the NAMM Foundation for their support, and everyone who stopped by our booth. There is no greater honor than being recognized for the care and quality we bake into every design.
