How Monster Got It’s Start

CNN Money has an interesting article about the beginnings of Monster Cable, one of the first big Bay Area audiophile success stories.

Worth the read, the piece describes how Noel Lee started an industry – a habit that has stuck with the Valley throughout the years.

Computer Audio Symposium in East Bay in June

Click here to find out more about the event.

It looks like there will be two identical sessions, one on Saturday the 27th and one on the 28th.

The event represents a collaboration between the Computer Audiophile website, high-end hardware and software vendors/manufacturers, and retail sales organizations.

I know some of the players involved, and content should be very good. There will be hardware demos, and maybe a product debut or two. The session will last 4 hours or so.

However, both the format of (e.g., panel discussions) and the level of (expert or novice) the content is unclear.

The venue is Fantasy Studios (very cool). Cool poster too!

Cost is $279 per person, including refreshments.
