Auralex Acoustics was founded back in 1977 because the acoustical products available at that time were way too expensive and had important disadvantages. In fact, they were so expensive that even the big-budget broadcast and recording facilities said they couldn't afford them! The people that began Auralex knew there had to be a better way, so Auralex was born out back a garage. Finally, great sound was available to all....not just the rich. Now, more than three decades later, they're still providing great products and great advice!
