October 2023:
In December 2022 Sound Techniques closed due to ill health of the co-founder, owner and Managing Director, Stephen Buckland.
Since 1992, Sound Techniques has been New Zealand’s best source of sales, rentals and support of portable sound recording equipment, including radio microphones, location mixers, microphones, portable digital recorders, and personal microphones.
We were the Auckland audio store New Zealand’s screen sound mixers, audio recording professionals, broadcasters, oral historians, videographers and podcasters trusted.
