Niles' mission is to be the world's leading supplier of products that offer their customers innovative solutions for whole-house distribution and integration of audio/video systems while providing unparalleled quality, convenience, control, and value.

From the very beginning, Niles has been a solutions-based company. Founded in Florida, USA in 1978, the fledgling company's first products were switching systems designed for use by audio retailers as a tool to help them demonstrate speakers and amplifiers to potential customers.

These switching systems greatly simplified the selling process because the salesperson no longer had to disconnect and reconnect wires and cables manually each time a customer wanted to audition a specific component.

Niles entered the loudspeaker marketplace in 1988 and today its extensive loudspeaker line is guided by the simple concept of 'Form Follows Function.'

Each speaker line is designed to achieve the finest in audio reproduction for a specific application. Responding to perceived problems and opportunities and to suggestions from dealers, installers, and end-users, Niles engineers explicitly design each speaker to deliver outstanding value and performance in a particular situation.

During more than a quarter-century of creativity and innovation, Niles has played a major role in the transformation of custom-installed whole-house audio systems and Home Theatre from a hobbyist pastime into a thriving, highly professional industry.

Niles grew by refining existing product types and inventing new ones, always delivering value to its dealers, installers, and end-users through quality engineering and materials, ease of installation and operation, and the best possible sound for the money.

Niles is a founding member of the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association (CEDIA) and its products have won numerous industry awards.

Today the Niles line of more than 500 individual products includes all the essential tools of the trade, a comprehensive array of devices for every aspect of whole-house distribution and integration of audio/video systems - speakers, receivers, amplifiers, automation devices, controls, accessories and an all new lineup of ZR multizone receiver products (as illustrated in the pictures above).
