Great Makers of Audio Equipment and Other Works of Art

Geoffrey Daking and Company – The New Trident A range Recording Consoles. Geoff makes some  of the best new audio gear available. He also had amazing career as a recording Engineer for Cyndi Lauper, Joan Osborne, Meatloaf, Hall and Oates and so many others. Geoff also played with the Blues Magoos, Paul Butterfield and others.

SawStudio – The best software for Digital Audio Workstations for PC’s. The absolute best service in the software industry.  No one does it better than Bob Lentini and SawStudio

Wunder Audio – Fantastic microphones built with the same detail to sound and build   quality of the greatest German and Austrian vintage classic mics. Mike Castoro, Mr. Wunder Audio, knows vintage mics. He literally owns hundreds of classics.  I have listened to his new offerings against the classics side by side and they are spot on. 

API Audio – Another standard in the industry that has been around for over 30 years. I love API Equalizers.

Petros Acoustic Guitars – Wow! What beautiful sparkly instruments.  Amazing tone and build quality.

Dancing Stones – Handmade Jewelry that grooves to the beat of your life.

WeenerWare – Silly name, fun stuff in bottlecaps by two hip ladies around town who my wife and I think rock.
