Richard spoke about the company’s evolution from a small Brooklyn workshop founded in 1953 to a globally respected, family-run manufacturer of handcrafted phono cartridges and open-back headphones. Richard covered their classic reference headphone deigns, new product introductions, and possible future innovation in the headphone space. We also had plenty of questions from attendees to round out the Zoom.
