Our Process and Passion

Each ToneSpeak speaker is the product of decades of dedication from engineers deeply passionate about audio excellence. These engineers, who are also musicians, collaborate closely with professional guitarists and dedicated tone-chasers to rigorously test our speakers in labs, studios, and live performances. This relentless pursuit of perfection ensures our speakers capture an extraordinary variety of voices and tonal characteristics.

Precision Crafted in the USA

Meticulously designed, prototyped, and tested in our Minnesota headquarters, every ToneSpeak speaker benefits from North America’s most advanced acoustic analysis tools. Using precise Klippel micro and macro analyses, we guarantee consistent, superior sound quality in every product. After assembly, each speaker undergoes extensive end-of-line testing, ensuring musicians receive the premium quality and performance they expect.

Backed by MISCO—An Audio Legacy

ToneSpeak is proudly backed by MISCO, our parent company, established in 1949 and renowned as a pioneer in audio solutions. Over its 75-year legacy, MISCO has achieved audio excellence across diverse industries, including aerospace, medical devices, gaming, and professional audio systems. This rich heritage of innovation and craftsmanship directly enhances every ToneSpeak speaker we create.

What are artists saying?

"...when I go to the Little Walter with the ToneSpeak speakers—I'm getting a rainbow of tone. It's so much wider, so many colors there. There's no competition."
— Robben Ford, Solo Artist
"I could not believe [the Austin 1250]. I'm talking 20% to 25% improvement on speakers I was already in love with."
— Phil Bradbury, Little Walter Amps
