This event marked our official launch into Pro Audio, so we were flattered and elated by the number of world-class engineers and pro audio professionals present. We sincerely appreciated their feedback at the event and shared excitement about the applications of our technology.
We’re back in Austin building DSub, RCA and near-field monitoring solutions, as well as configuring pro audio kits for home and commercial studios to sample. From the inception of the company, we set out to establish a new sonic standard, and we are excited to take this next step in doing that. We appreciate the support and encouragement of all who have been on this ride with us from the beginning and that of those we’ve been blessed to meet along the way … Exciting things to come!
