About me....
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1947.
1969 - B.S. Mechanical Engineering, Penn State.
1969-1970 - Test Engineer, United Aircraft Research Center in East Hartford, Connecticut.
1970-1971- Design Engineer,De Laval Turbine Engineering
1973 - M.S. Mechanical Engineering, Penn State.
1973 - 1977 Research Engineer, Theoretical Gas Dynamics, United Technologies Research
Center.
1977 - Co-founded Scientific Research Associates.
2004 - Retired
My interest in audio and electronics began at the age of 10 when I became interested in short
wave radio and began building kits from Allied Radio. I designed my first real set of speakers in
college and have been active in speaker design ever since. My first significant effort towards a
transient perfect design dates to 1977. The system was a 4-way system using a unique series
crossover. The driver complement included a Becker 10" woofer, an Audax HD13B25 Bexterne
5 1/4" lower midrange, Audax HD 13D37 dome upper midrange and an Audax HD100D25
dome tweeter. It was a moderate success. In 1980 I hooked up with a small local speaker
building company and began applying simulation to crossover development. Unfortunately the
relationship did not last, nor did the speaker company.
A representative list of my publications may be found here.
