Vale Australian Audio Legend David Croxton

Released 22 Sep 2020

RØDE Owner and Chairman Peter Freedman AM has today paid his respects to Australian pro audio industry legend David Croxton, Sales Director at KV2 Audio, who recently died at the age of 59.

KV2 Audio announced that David, who was Sales Director at the company for nine years, died as the result of a fatal accident late last week.

He was a key figure in the Australian audio industry for many years and a long-time friend of Mr. Freedman. We are very sad to hear of his passing.

"I first met Dave in the '90s when RØDE was in its early days and he was the importer and distributor of Mackie," says Mr. Freedman. "I was immediately struck by his energy and enthusiasm, and in the years I knew him, I always had a huge amount of respect for his breadth of knowledge in both audio technology and in business.

Dave was an archetypal Aussie gentleman who I'm proud to have called a mate – I will miss him dearly. Sending my deepest condolences to his family.

Rest in peace, Dave."
