Hi all!
My name is True Taylor
I started my speaker journey back in 2003 as part of the work/study program my Junior year in High School. I was always into tech stuff as a kid, and a position opened up at Toby Speakers in Fort Worth, Texas. (Just across downtown). I realized fairly quickly that I learned much faster on the job, and enjoyed myself significantly more with an open slate to do whatever crazy things came to mind. I skipped a college experience, as schooling never really suited me.
After nearly 10 years of building speakers and taking over more and more responsibility at the shop, I ended picking up the mantle for Toby Guynn, and am carrying on his legacy.
I may add more to this post later if anyone cares to hear about my background, but I'm now 22 years into designing and optimizing speaker systems from scratch. I have a small workshop just outside downtown Fort Worth (Haltom City, TX), and continue to build and design new systems. I have an in house CNC that I operate, a multitude of 3d printers and other tools to assist with any custom projects I am working on, and a very wide array of experience to assist in the endeavor. I currently share the 9k sqft shop space with a friend that tunes cars (and have a dynomometer in the back of the shop for doing so). I am also very much into silly cars and high horsepower (mostly Turbo inline 6 vehicles - I have 3 😛 )
In the last few years, I have moved from optimizing low cost home systems and car subwoofers into assembling some of the highest quality components I can into truly magical experiences. I am now utilizing components from Purifi, Satori (Such Sweet Beryllium 🙂 ), and Hypex amplifiers. Finding the limits of those components, and wanting very much to build LINE SOURCE systems, I was finally able to dedicate the time toward building our first production ready Electrostatic speaker systems. With an impossible amount of assistance from a forum member/long time friend/ESL expert/all around great guy, I have created some really neat architecture and learned to produce a viable PCB Based solution.
I'm mostly here to learn, and help others with anything I might have insight in. Anyway. Cheers!
