As a key driver of technological innovation in our industry, we are continuing to update our resources and outreach to our growing user base, says U.S. General Manager Paul Freudenberg. Gino is uniquely equipped to provide that support thanks to his direct industry experience not only from a manufacturer's standpoint but also from the perspective of our integration partners. This newly created position, which is part of a multi-faceted global strategy, exemplifies Powersoft's commitment to engaging top touring professional and installation experts, while also ensuring that our integrators are able to maximize the potential of the technology.

Powersoft is a company that has been built on technological superiority and innovation and I'm honored to be joining the team in this newly created role. says Pellicano. Having used Powersoft amplifiers extensively as a consultant and system designer for their outstanding sonic characteristics and unrivaled efficiency, I am eager to bring that real-world experience to our customers and help them leverage the unique performance benefits offered by Powersoft amplifiers.

In addition to handling applications engineering tasks, I look forward to ongoing collaboration with Powersofts design teams in Italy, providing constant feedback to ensure that our products continue to address the needs of our user base, he added.

Gino Pellicano holds a Master's degree in Architectural Acoustics from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and has worked as an acoustical consultant for SIA acoustics in New York City. He also spent part of his career as an acoustical consultant and design engineer, working with a client base heavily centered on Orlando's theme parks and high end retail installations. Most recently, he worked for Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) as an applications specialist, a position he has held for the last two years before.
