John Reid and Bill Dawson of Deloitte, the business advisory firm, have been appointed Administrators of Sound Control Holdings Limited (“Holdings”) and certain of its subsidiaries (“the Group”) following applications to the courts by the Group’s Directors.

The joint administrators manage the affairs, business, and property of the company, for the duration of the administration.

The joint administrators act as agents of the company, and do not personally adopt any contracts that may have been entered into by the company, prior to their appointment.

The Group operates from 26 stores across the UK, under the brand names Sound Control, Media Tools, Turnkey and Soho Sound House.

The Group has been impacted by increased competition from the internet, and the directors had been pursuing a strategy to sell the business. This did not prove successful and accordingly they sought the appointment of John Reid and Bill Dawson as Administrators.

Following a review of the Group’s operations the Administrators have made the difficult decision to close 14 of the Group’s trading locations and bring to an end its telesales and internet sales activities.

“The Administrators welcome interest in the business and assets of the Group and are already in discussions with a number of interested parties to explore a possible sale.

The Administrator will continue to trade the remaining 11 stores, selling high quality musical instruments to the public.

The Group's head office is based in Dunfermline and has various trading locations throughout the UK.
