Redstone Electronics is a custom electronics design, construction and modification service focused on high end audio.  We design & build new equipment and modify older high end equipment for both reliability reasons (electrolytic caps, for example, typically last 20-30 years before failing) and for improved sonics (replacing older parts with higher performing, closer tolerance new parts).

This webpage documents some of my work and contains reference materials for those technically inclined.


Speakers

CAOW1   New 9/2009

Mini-monitor, designed by Dennis Murphy, built as floorstanding version.  Uses the Hiquphon OW1 tweeter and Seas CA15RLY woofer in a vented enclosure. 
 

Fried Model H

This landmark 3 way speaker system designed by Irving Fried in 1978 consists of two small satellites plus a large common dual channel transmission line subwoofer, using classic KEF drivers.  


Fried Model B/2  New 6/07

This mini-monitor speaker was an evolution of the satellite of the Model H, and competed with the Rogers LS3/5a and JR 149 among others.  With the Model T subwoofer (below), it formed the Model H/2 system.   Lots of reference material here.
