    Rob Gault | Eminence Speaker | Noise Busters

    In 1966, Bob Gault founded what was to become the world's largest loudspeaker manufacturing company, Eminence Speaker, after working as an engineer for Magnavox and CTS (Chicago Telephone Supply). Ironically, Gault started Eminence hoping to maintain three 18" speakers per day, based on a commitment from Ampeg's Everett Hull. Under the leadership of Gault and most recently his son, Rob, the company's capacity grew to over 10,000 speakers per day, employing over 240 people by 1997. Gault was the president of Eminence Speaker from the company's inception until 1992. He officially retired in 1993, but continued to make valuable contributions to the company.   Bob's son Rob took over at the helm of Eminence Speaker. He started out as a research scientist at the Georgia Tech Research Institute after completing his bachelor of science in Physics and a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering at Georgia Tech, where he had the honor of studying under Dr. Eugene Patronis and the late Dr. Marshall Leach.   Eminence has grown hugely over the years and is a purely family orientated business but also a significant world player in loudspeaker design and manufacturing, distributing in over 90 countries. Eminence is now 50 years old and still going strong.  We are very pleased to welcome Rob Gault (Eminence Speaker) on Noise Busters. Dan and George chat to Rob about his career managing the loudspeaker company Eminence, building a manufacturing division in China, R&D in Eminence and what makes a good loudspeaker and a whole host of other things.  Check out the Eminence Speaker website here: https://eminence.com/  If you want to be considered as a guest for the show please email us at noisebustersdb@gmail.com.  #noise #acoustics #decibel #weareeminence #loudspeaker #sound #physics #calgary #warrington #kentucky #podcast #acousticconsultant #environmentalnoise #loudspeakers #vibration #noisebusters #acoustics #guitarspeakers #eminence

    We are delighted to welcome our first guest, and someone who is well known throughout the industry, particularly by acoustics alumni of Salford and Liverpool Universities, Professor Andy Moorhouse. Andy started out his undergraduate life as a Mechanical Engineer, studying at Nottingham University. In 1985 he joined the Acoustics Research Unit (ARU) at Liverpool University to undertake a Doctoral research in acoustics. After completing his PhD, he moved into consultancy. We talk about lots of Acoustics elements with a focus on low frequency sound. Andy also provides insight and guidance on ways to get into the industry and how he has enjoyed it so much over his career. There's also a discussion about the latest acoustics news including the Windsor Hum disappearing, artificial crowd noise at NFL games and a harp performance in Andy’s Out House; with a beer thrown in there also. Outside of acoustics, Andy is a talented jazz musician, and a qualified teacher of the Alexandra Technique, a process designed to retrain habitual patterns of movement and posture, benefitting physical well-being. Andy also delves into his work and training with the Alexander Technique. You can also catch the full video version on YouTube if you search for Noise Busters.
