Heritage & History
Lectrosonics was founded in March 1971 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, growing from a small electronics company into the preeminent manufacturer of professional wireless microphone systems in the United States. The company relocated to Rio Rancho, New Mexico, where it has operated ever since. The company's motto — 'Made in the USA by a Bunch of Fanatics' — isn't marketing copy; it's a description of an engineering culture that has refused to compromise on manufacturing quality for over five decades.
In 2017, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded Lectrosonics a Technical Achievement Award for its Digital Hybrid Wireless technology, which the Academy noted had been used in the majority of major Hollywood feature films for more than a decade. The award recognized not just the technology but the company's sustained impact on professional audio production in American cinema.
Made in Rio Rancho, New Mexico
All Lectrosonics transmitters, receivers, and audio processing products are manufactured entirely in the Rio Rancho, New Mexico facility. The company's engineering and manufacturing teams occupy the same building, enabling rapid iteration between design and production. This vertical integration allows Lectrosonics to maintain the precision tolerances that professional sound mixers depend on — the frequency accuracy, RF performance, and audio quality specifications that distinguish professional wireless systems from consumer alternatives.
Lectrosonics products appear on film and television productions worldwide, in theaters from the Santa Fe Opera to the Los Angeles Philharmonic, on concert tours for major acts, and in fixed installation systems across North America. The SSM micro transmitter, the SMV body pack, and the various digital hybrid receiver systems represent decades of New Mexico engineering applied to professional wireless audio challenges. When Hollywood sound professionals need wireless that won't fail during a single-take scene, Lectrosonics is the answer.
