The CMA Awards presentation is recognised as Country Music's Biggest Night and represents the pinnacle of achievement for those involved in country music. The team of industry veterans responsible for the audio at this year's CMA's again included a who's-who of broadcast audio.

Mark King served as Broadcast Production Mixer. Stage monitoring was handled by Tom Pesa and Jason Spence, and James Stoffo served as RF Coordinator/Microphone Tech.

Audio-Technica is a vital supporter of our technical team during the CMA Awards, stated Tom Davis, Co-Audio Producer of the 49th Annual CMA Awards. Their artist relations and on-site technical support are both superior. And of course, their wired and wireless mics sound great, and are consistently reliable. Having Audio-Technica in our corner makes our lives a whole lot easier!
James Stoffo, RF Coordinator/Microphone Tech, echoes Davis's sentiments: We love the support we receive from Audio-Technica, and we have never had any problems with interference, drifting or audio quality of their wireless systems. The A-T 5000 series wireless that we have used, not only on this show but others, has been flawless. I'm always happy to see A-T on the show.
