PETALUMA, CA – Sept 29, 2004 – Panamax, the leading manufacturer of power-conditioning products, is pleased to announce that its breakthrough MAX In-Wall line has been awarded the first ever RESI Award. Brainchild of Residential Systems Magazine, the RESI Awards aimed to honor the most innovative residential electronic product designs of 2004.

“We are delighted with all the positive industry feedback of the MAX In-Wall Family, and the RESI Award was the icing on the cake,” commented Don King, director of product marketing at Panamax. “Our goal with the MAX In-Wall Family was to deliver safe, clean power from the main system to remote equipment such as ceiling projectors and flat panel displays, keeping AC and signal cables hidden for a clean, code-compliant installation.”
