I'm Jason Stoddard I'm one of the cofounders of audio it's a lot of people come by they see the name they go who the hell is you know who the hell is this are they serious that's like now we're absolutely serious we're we're growing like crazy the $99 products have been amazing now it's like what are you know essentially what are we gonna do next it really came from two things one is when we were developing the company my my I was always telling my wife you know I gotta go work on this I got to work on that and then chase you said well why don't you just call it because you just keep referring to it as that and Mike and Mike Moffet my business partner chimed in and he said well everyone knows America can only make anyway so you know it's made in USA so let's just call it and it it kind of stuck them you know it's like it's the shits and you know happy as a pig and sheds ape and we we've kind of taken and run with it and you know despite the name despite our kind of cavalier attitude you know we are very serious about the products themselves it's just this is our way to get your attention without spending you know ten million dollars we're in advertising so far it works we'll see maybe everyone will get tired of it and that's something that I think the thing to talk about it this show is probably something that's not even here because we get asked about this all the time the statement products which have not yet been named or had not been released and have not actually been shown anywhere and a lot of people are like are you going to have it here at the show it's like well the answer is no unfortunately we had a little bit of a fire with one of them so it's not going to be out for a little bit but statement products are being worked on and we anticipate releasing at least one of them before the end of the year statement products are an amp and a deck the two separate products the amp I think people know a little bit about one is that it's an integrated amp that will drive speakers headphones headphones down to IEM it's balanced and balanced out single ended in single ended out you know it's a really neat product the thing is that microprocessor control system is still under development so anyway that's the that's the one that kind of had a little bit of a fire and then there's a statement DAC that's coming out and that one is we're currently evaluating three different analog sections for it analog deck and essentially summing you know sections for it and I'm hoping that'll be out by the end of the year we'll see but I wanted to have here I wanted to have a really ugly prototype to hide under you know under the tables but it didn't make it but we are working on it guys and you know so I guess keep the faith but we do have is the full range from Magnum OD which are $99 products you know made in USA headphone amp and DAC also available as the combo Magne and muddier as people call him the stack which is $198 and that's our combo deck and amp button by the way guys it's just in two chances we also have Asgard - that's probably our newest product here Bifrost uber which is the the newest version of Bifrost we also have let's say that valhalla headphone amp and we have Milner and junior as well so really the whole the whole line 99 - 849 and you know everything's playing and not catching on fire which is a good thing for a production product anyway
