No one else serves the industry like Westrex!
The complete theatre supply and service organization maintained by Westrex is the answer to every theatre equipment problem in 62 countries outside the U.S.A. and Canada. Offices in more than 100 cities are staffed with engineers trained by Westrex who have installed over 5000 Western Electric and Westrex Sound Systems. These trained engineers also service our systems plus hundreds of installations of other makes.
Each office also handles complete lines of
associated theatre equipment and accessories and maintains stocks of spare parts.
For studios throughout the world, Westrex offers a full line of Western Electric and Westrex studio recording equipment and accessories to meet every recording and rerecording need. These equipments — like Westrex Theatre Sound Systems — are the outcome of many years research by Bell Telephone Laboratories and the Westrex Hollywood Laboratories.
