The Directors

John

John

John founded Excelavue Inc in 2013. He has had a varied career working in communication, music technology, filming/video editing, IT and audio amplification for various companies and institutions in the UK and Canada: British Telecom (UK), University of Exeter (UK), TACF and Precision Sound.

In 2003 John, his wife Sylvia and three young children moved to Canada to help support a charity in Toronto for two years. The two years living in Canada became three and then four, then... Canadian citizenship!

John’s hobbies and interests are many and varied. The majority of his hobbies revolve around his love of music and the outdoors. Marathon running became the defining ‘outdoors’ passion for him after hanging up his soccer cleats in 2015. The dream of running the Boston Marathon was realized four years later in 2019. The next dream is to run the UTMB Mont-Blanc, France.

John’s passion for excellence and pioneering spirit naturally became the defining factors in establishing Excelavue providing Excellence in communication, Excellent product and Excellent customer care.

Joel

Joel became the latest member of the Excelavue team as the Director of Operations and Marketing. He graduated from the Recreation & Leisure Services program at Fanshawe College and has an extensive background in outdoor education and children’s recreation.

Joel has a bilateral hearing loss and is very passionate about music and audio. In his spare time, he produces electronic music under the moniker Jenik and has proficient knowledge in the realm of music production and DAW’s (Digital Audio Workstation).

Growing up in often noisy environments like school, church and other extracurriculars, Joel understands the importance of sound field technology and personal hearing devices for people with hearing loss to be included and engaged in conversation.

What Our Clients Say

"I have worked with Sylvia and John Pedlar of Excelavue for a few years. The support and attention to detail has been fabulous. They also provided direct support such as coming to some of my schools to help set up the Lightspeed Redcat systems and to troubleshoot challenges. I would highly recommend them and their company."

"We purchased the first Redcat Soundfield System for our School Library (now the Learning Commons) in Spring 2014. Since then we have replaced the systems in nine classrooms, The Arts Room and the Gymnasium. We love our Redcats. Excelavue Inc. has been enormously helpful every step of the way. John Pedlar worked tirelessly to find solutions to problems that came up, recommending and providing a Redcat and a Chiayo Wireless Stage Pro Portable in specific situations. John and Sylvia are an email away and respond quickly when we have needs and questions. BSA is delighted to be part of the Excelavue family."

"Excelavue is always friendly, helpful and flexible enough to meet the needs of our small school. We have used them year after year."
