Engineer and programmer on 'Maps' mercury award nominated debut, as well as working in his Berlin based studio with ‘Reece’

"When I checked out the Rocks I was sold. After using many monitors I needed a change. The Rocks offered was I was looking for; they are perfect for mixing and listening. They also provide a modern aesthetic and sound which is like no other speaker available today."
- Ken Thomas

"Being a musician as well as a producer I needed a speaker for recording, performing and mixing. The Rock is both musical and accurate, enabling me to be creative whist not having to worry about any nasty surprises down the line. Crucially the bottom end is detailed and true at any monitoring level. Honesty is the best policy!"
