I suppose there were two areas of inspiration for me. One, the original JBL products, because they used to make a lot of short coil/long gap design-based drivers when they first began in the '50s and '60s. People that influenced me greatly were Quad's Peter Walker, Laurie Fincham and all that group of engineers that came through Goodmans. In 1970, I went from Revolver in Melbourne to England, because I'd written to Goodmans loudspeakers and got a job with them. I played piano on a boat to get myself over there.
