Tony
Andrews together with John Newsham founded
Turbosound in the mid 1970s and brought that company to prominence through
several generations of revolutionary loudspeaker designs. Notable examples
include the TMS-3, Flashlight and Floodlight systems.
During
the period of Tony and John's ownership of Turbosound they pioneered
and established many of the principles which subsequently became standard
audio industry practice. Whilst often imitated, their designs have not
been surpassed and have been the first choice of many permanent and
touring sound applications around the world.
Following a period of growing unrest and the purchase of Turbosound
by AKG, Tony and John leapt at an opportunity to sever their ties, feeling
that Turbosound was no longer an avenue of creative expression for them.
Upon leaving Turbosound in 1992 they formed Funktion One along with
several other members of the original Turbosound R & D team.
Funktion One represents an unsurpassed pool of experience and expertise
in the audio industry having been consistent innovators in audio design,
concert touring and sound installation for in excess of 25 years
