Steinway Lyngdorf has taken ownership of the Nexgentec Audio brand and product portfolio, which is globally recognized for its industry-leading Audio-over-IP solutions in the marine and luxury residential sectors. This strategic integration deepens Steinway Lyngdorf’s leadership in audio innovation and expands its capacity to develop and deliver fully in-house engineered solutions.
As part of this transition, the core team behind Nexgentec — Rico Vögeli, founder and CEO, and Boas Hochstrasser, CTO — have joined a newly established Swiss branch office of SL Audio A/S, where they will continue to develop and support the product line under the Nexgentec name. While the former Nexgentec Audio company has ceased operations, the new branch — SL Audio A/S, Skive, Branch Konolfingen — will serve as the foundation for the brand’s continued evolution. This structure ensures Nexgentec’s advanced Audio-over-IP solutions remain aligned with Steinway Lyngdorf’s standards for innovation, integration, and engineering precision.
“Joining Steinway Lyngdorf is an exciting new chapter, said Rico Vögeli. “We now have the R&D muscle, in-house engineering expertise, and production capabilities to keep developing the systems we’re passionate about — while expanding our reach through one of the most respected names in high-end audio.”
With Nexgentec’s proven expertise in the marine sector — having equipped many of the world’s leading superyachts — Steinway Lyngdorf will deepen its focus on high-end marine audio. In the future, Steinway Lyngdorf will leverage its extensive network of U.S.-based custom integrators to introduce Nexgentec’s Audio-over-IP solutions to the North American market. Sales channels will remain separate between the two companies, but the shared knowledge base opens new opportunities across luxury residences, commercial environments, hospitality properties, and private resort developments for Nexgentec.
