Interview with the Owners of Creative Sound Solutions
Ara recently purchased a DIY Speaker kit (Model P215 $439) from Creative Sound Solutions because he has heard a lot of great things about the company and products. He reached out to Dan Poinsett and Kerry Armes the owners of Creative Sound Solutions and they agreed to come on the show and talk about their company and DIY speaker kits.
About CSS AudioCreative Sound Solutions is operated out of the Southeast Michigan area by two friends with a passion for great audio. Ownership of CSS was transferred from Bob Reimer, the original founder, to us in June 2017 and since then we've been working on bringing back some of the great drivers CSS is known for, as well as introducing some cool new kits and products to make it easier to get a world class speaker at a great price. We are also now 50% veteran owned and operated.
Let’s face it, high end audio is full of mysticism. There are all kinds of beliefs and opinions into what matters and what doesn’t, and many of them aren’t backed by facts or science at all (room purifying crystals anyone?). At CSS, we strive to de-mystify things for you. We use proven theories and methodologies developed and tested by trusted experts in the field of acoustics like Floyd Toole, Siegfried Linkwitz, and Vance Dickenson and combine that with countless hours of our own driver testing and acoustic evaluations to give you a truly high-end experience at an affordable price.
Our products are definitely not the cheapest on the market. We don’t strive to be. We strive to provide you with the best speakers your money can buy. Everything we put into our speakers is something that we’ve tested and evaluated to provide you with a true performance benefit. We don’t believe speakers need a “secret sauce” to sound great, so we won’t ever try to sell you pseudo-science. What you get instead is solid engineering, technical knowledge, and a couple sets of keen ears that have over 30 years combined experience designing loudspeakers.
