Welcome to S. M. Audio Engineering.

After a yearlong investigation, Steve Mowry uncovered an interesting but troubling story from within the loudspeaker industry. You can download his manuscript here.

S. M. AUDIO ENGINEERING is a small family owned and operated consulting company for engineering and new product development. We specialize in audio transducer and loudspeaker system design and development, concurrent project management, large signal measurements, assembly processes, quality control, supplier identification, and documentation. The emphasis is on implementing the highest performance technologies, topologies, and materials application using powerful software and hardware tools to determine optimal geometries and to quickly solve design, development, and manufacturing problems.

Solutions for your company’s audio transducer or loudspeaker product lines are available. The challenges that companies face to competitiveness and prosperity can be opportunities to formulate new plans that are better suited to today’s market conditions. Quality and value must be designed into products. After years of R&D, a select list of products has been assembled that represent the “State Of The Art” in loudspeaker and headphone implementations. These products include but are not limited to Brush Wellman Electrofusion’s Truextent Acoustic Grade Beryllium diaphragms, Carbon or Aramid fiber skins + hard foam core sandwich composite cones and dust caps, Acrylic and Poron trick surrounds, Nomex and Acrylic trick spiders. In addition, there are transducers with complementary symmetrical push-pull topology that include a 30mm STEALLUS AIRCORE Beryllium Dome Tweeter, 8-in STEALLUS Midbase, 11-in STEALLUS X Subwoofer, and STEALLUS HYBRID headphone and high frequency transducers. Then for active loudspeaker implementations at the highest standards, there are KSC’s DIGMODA modules with D-PRO Window’s DSP software and ICE Power Class D low distortion - high power amplifier modules. Just connect your PC to the loudspeaker and use the D-PRO software to control and optimize driver gain, phase, crossover filtering, equalization, limiters and expanders. Resistors, capacitors and inductors seem so primitive in comparison.

What this means to the small- to mid-sized loudspeaker related company is that there is now “Take-Out R&D” ready, available, and conveniently located in SE Asia. The question then becomes not if you can afford R&D and New Product Development, but rather can you afford to do nothing to be competitive and to assure your company’s future? S. M. Audio Engineering offers services and loudspeaker related products with support at the highest standards possible but at the lowest prices due in part to the “Lean Business Model” that is applied to new product development.
