SoundTube Speakers - The Early Days

SoundTube speakers started as an experiment in combining unique materials and speaker bits to make very unusual audio
product. Truth is, I wanted some wild looking, industrial aesthetic items to decorate my first house. As a single guy, I didn’t have to
worry about “approvals” and interior design norms. After creating and installing some 10 and 20-foot long flexible hoses stuffed
with speaker components, I realized I might actually be on to something and started to refine my design.

I took prototypes to local pros and retailers, who all told me I was crazy. That was my fuel – and still is. I continued my experiments
and refined the designs until they provided great sound, wide dispersion, visual impact and easy shipping. After a few years of
prototypes, tests, manufacturing details and more, we launched the SoundTube Speaker company, focusing on the commercial
audio market, selling speakers to restaurant, retail and other commercial settings. Hanging wide-dispersion speakers from high
ceilings created a whole new paradigm for sound quality and coverage. The custom printed sleeves we created to cover the tubes
added to the visual and marketing benefits that SoundTube pioneered. – DW
