Something to be proud of

[Swerd]

My son, Andy, works as an acoustic engineer for an acoustics consulting company called Walters-Storyk Design Group (WSDG). It's an architectural acoustics consulting company specializing in designing & installing acoustics features in recording studios, theaters, auditoriums, churches, etc.

A project he recently worked on was the construction of a 706 seat auditorium for the First Lutheran Church in Fargo, ND. It was recently featured by the publication "Church.Design". Andy was quoted in the article, a nice plug for him and WSDG. As a proud dad, I can brag about it here .

Maybe you should let him disassemble your old SongTowers then.

Well he did take apart an old pair of my speakers years ago...

Way to go Andy!

Back when I gave my old SongTowers to him, I made my son swear to never take them apart or modify them. He laughed at me, but agreed. He now knows about sound deadening and large room acoustics, but admits he knows little about designing a passive speaker crossover. Dennis Murphy is still the expert at this.

When he was younger, Andy took everything apart, whether they needed improvement or not. Often he didn't reassemble them for months or years! He actually did repair a few things, but in reality he more often damaged or lost critical parts. He felt it was his duty to ignore my repeated comment, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". Just maybe, he's learned that lesson now.

You were holding out on us for all of these years? Dirty pool, buster!

That's pretty cool swerd! I'd say that's dad-bragging-worthy for sure and hits close to the audio lover's heart!
