Michael Davis-Yates: Leaptronic Audio - "This is How We Do It, Now..."
Tuesday, Mar. 20th
6PM PST

Michael Davis-Yates has been building speakers for himself and friends for the better part of a decade, in the summer of 2010 the brand LEAP was born as a way to present his designs to the rest of the world, and provide enthusiasm for audio gear in a yet undetermined niche. In the last two years LEAP has created products such as boom-boxes, hi-fi speaker systems, and audio oddities such as singing mirrors.
When the joy of creating an awesome thing turns into the dream of creating a marketable product things can get a little hairy for the uninitiated. Michael's talk will focus on the daily struggle a non-manufacturing maker is faced with in the process of moving from concept to production.
