Over his long career, Phil has always followed a consistent design philosophy: A good speaker, like the creation of a master chef, provokes as much emotional response as intellectual appreciation. "You can' t reduce a great meal to a recipe book," he firmly believes, "any more than you can reduce a great speaker to a series of equations in a textbook. Great creations arise as much from passion as from knowledge."

It is this unique perspective, shaped by Phil' s never-ending work to increase the enjoyment of sound-conscious consumers and professional musicians alike, that gives AAD a crucial advantage in offering products that combine engineering excellence and intuitive understanding to produce speakers and electronics that are as emotionally gratifying as they are affordable.

Simply stated, AAD products will bring you closer to an artist' s soul than you thought possible. That' s one of the rewards of Phil' s passion. And just may be the fulfillment of yours.
