“During the late 1970s and early 1980s with a/d/s and from the time he joined Bowers & Wilkins in 1986, Chris’s instinct for defining audio products that met current market demands was unmatched,” said Joe Atkins, chairman of the B&W Group. “He has had a profound impact on the evolution of our expanding product portfolio, while directing the sensitive distribution decisions in North America that were made in parallel with the brand’s growth.”
