Presents

● Erie, Colorado  ·  Live sessions, filmed in the warehouse

We spent 15 years
chasing perfect sound.
Then we remembered
what it was for.

The Music Room Presents is a live performance series filmed inside our Colorado warehouse: intimate sessions with independent artists, captured with the same obsession we've always brought to sound.

Looking down on the warehouse mid-session: the band playing in a clearing between racks of hi-fi, with the crew and lights around them

Why a hi-fi company is filming bands

A perfect stereo system playing nothing is just furniture. Our whole business exists because somebody made something worth hearing.

For fifteen years we've made a business out of helping people listen better. Amplifiers that cost more than cars. Speakers engineered to disappear so a recording arrives untouched. And none of it makes a sound until a musician does the hard part first.

Someone has to write the song. Practice it until it's good. Load the van. Sometimes play for thirty people like there are three thousand in the room.

What is all of this actually for?

So we started inviting artists in. We don't take a cut. We don't sign anybody. We don't own their music. We're not trying to become a record label.

We're simply taking some of what music has given us and pointing it back toward the people making it.
