Description

Granite Audio started out as a hobby 25 years ago. I was one of only two people in Arizona doing audiophile quality restorations on vintage tube amplifiers, such as McIntosh & Marantz. I was also collecting and restoring antique vacuum tube radios, specializing in the big 12 to 40-tube high-fidelity sets from the 1930's. I did audiophile type capacitor upgrades on the old radios as well.

As a professional cabinetmaker and audiophile I had been building my own speaker designs for years already. In the mid 70's two friends of mine in the disk mastering business in L.A. collaborated with me to design a studio monitor speaker. They were frustrated with the accuracy of the available monitors and needed a speaker they could rely on for their disk mastering businesses. We made several production runs of the "Kenlund Studio Monitor" and more than two decades later these monitors are all still in use by professionals from Arizona to Beverly Hills to Idaho.

In 1977 my venture became Don's Custom Cabinets. In 1983 the business grew and I incorporated as Broadway Cabinetworks, Ltd. In 1995 I decided to expand our presence in audio and take on the task of developing a complete tube system. After several years of R&D we debuted our Granite Audio system concept at Stereophile's HI-FI'98 in Los Angeles, California. Many other manufacturers had been working on using alternative speaker cabinet materials during the same time. But, we were the first to successfully bring an entire acrylic-granite integrated synergistic system to market.
