THD Podcast 34 - ALTI Audio & Loudspeaker Technology International Networking for the Audio Industry

The Total Harmonic Discussion / the THD Podcast. A weekly discussion on audio and headphone technologies and the people who bring the technology to market. In episode 34, Barry Vogel, the CEO of ALTI, joins to discuss the Audio & Loudspeaker Technology International (ALTI). They are the first sponsor of the THD podcast so we are very happy to have Barry join to preview the benefits of ALTI membership. ALMA and then ALTI was formed in 1964 by members of the loudspeaker engineering specialty segment in support of American loudspeaker manufacturers. The mission has changed and evolved over time. They added  “International” to ALMA to recognize and welcome the global community into ALMA in order to better serve their industry. Then they widened their focus to include the business side of their industry recognizing that unless great engineering leads to great business, great engineering will not happen. In 2017, they widened their focus to include products and technologies that surround the loudspeaker industry. This was done in recognition of the changing landscape in which audio technologies are integrated and connected, and will no longer be “stand-alone” products.  This led to the name change in 2019 to ALTI. Audio and Loudspeaker Technologies International; A name that more closely reflects who they are and who they are becoming. As ALTI LLC is born, it is done with the recognition of the efforts of many great Association Members and leaders. Their legacy will be honored and continued as ALTI moves forward with fresh ideas and initiatives to better serve their Members and the industry.
