The 2013 AV Awards took place on Friday 11 October at the London Hilton, UK, at a gala dinner attended by guests from all over the European AV industry. Manufacturers, dealers, sponsors, and of course winners, all gathered to hear the results of this year’s AV Awards competition.

For over 30 years Kramer Electronics has been providing solutions to the vast range of challenges that confront the AV industry: developing creative, reliable and value-oriented top-of-the-line products to customers around the world. The distinguished award committee chose to acknowledge this contribution by giving the prestigious Manufacturer of the Year AV Award to Kramer Electronics. What an honour!

Not only was it a great honour for Kramer to win the Manufacturer of the Year Award, but Kramer also won the Systems Product of the Year award, for the VP-771. This is the second year in a row that this award goes to Kramer Electronics; the Digital Step-in Family won at the 2012 AV Awards.

The 9−input VP-771 is part of a new line of presentation scaling switchers, the answer to today’s demanding applications that require professional, high-quality, scaling and switching technology. The VP-771 offers a versatile feature set that includes Luma-Keying, Picture-in-Picture functions, 2K resolution, emergency alert notifications, built-in web pages, and more.
