            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Where We're At with Supplier Data in Smackdab</strong></p><p>The catalog is coming together fast — and we think you're going to love what's in it. We've locked in relationships with some of the best brands in the industry across audio, video, lighting, control, automation, and more. Take a look at what we're working with below, and let us know in the comments: <strong>are there suppliers you'd like to see us add?</strong> This is your catalog too, and we want to make sure it has everything you need to build and win proposals.</p><p>One thing to note as you browse — having a relationship with a supplier doesn't mean the data is live and ready to go just yet. We're actively in the weeds on curation: verifying pricing tiers, mapping specs, and making sure everything is accurate before it's proposal-ready. We expect to have the current batch fully polished within the next couple of weeks, and we'll keep you posted as each group goes live.</p><hr><p><strong>Distributor Connections</strong></p><ul><li><p><strong>ADI Global</strong> — Access Networks, ADI Global, ADI BTX, Snap One</p></li><li><p><strong>Expert Warehouse</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Ingram Micro</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Pioneer Music Company</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>TD Synnex</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Apex Technologies</strong> — Apex Power, TPI, Meridian, HDA</p></li><li><p><strong>Alarm Product Distribution (APD)</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Wave Electronics</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Playback Distribution</strong></p></li></ul><hr><p><strong>Direct Brand Connections</strong></p><p><strong>Audio &amp; Home Theater</strong> Bowers &amp; Wilkins, Denon, Marantz, Polk, Definitive Technology, Classe, Bluesound, NAD, Origin Acoustics, Sonance, James Loudspeaker, Leon, SVS, Wisdom Audio, Audio Control, Storm Audio, Tributaries Cables</p><p><strong>Video &amp; Displays</strong> Sony, LG, Epson, Barco Residential, Seura, AWALL, Just Video Walls, IC Realtime</p><p><strong>Control &amp; Automation</strong> Josh AI, Crestron, Savant, Sonos, Aurora Multimedia, Future Ready Solutions, WhyReboot, Black Nova</p><p><strong>Lighting</strong> DMF Lighting, WAC Lighting, FX Luminaire, Proluxe / American Lighting, Colorbeam, Trufig</p><p><strong>Home Theater Furniture &amp; Acoustics</strong> CinemaTech, Salamander</p><p><strong>Outdoor Living</strong> Jet Living Products</p><p><strong>Mounts &amp; AV Furniture</strong> Future Automation, Crimson AV, Ergo AV, Audio Visual Furniture International, Blackwire Designs</p><p><strong>Power Management</strong> SurgeX</p><p><strong>Networking &amp; Infrastructure</strong> Cleerline, FrameWorks</p><hr><p>Drop a comment below with any suppliers you'd like to see us add — we're all ears and actively growing the list.
