- Page 2 The brief was just a few simple words on a single sheet of paper - yet the task was enormous: "Create the best sound in the world regardless". Two years after delivering the brief to our sound technicians, our club sound-system was ready. Housed in a specially constructed room simply referred to as 'The Box', it was the result of intensive research across the globe, utilising specialists in all areas of sound and electronics.
- Page 3 After 10 years of refinement, tweaking and pampering, and with the advent of advanced chip technology, we can bring you your very own 'M-Bass' - the true sound of The Box right in to your very own home, or the palm of your hand. So times may have changed, as has technology, but whether it's for our club or audio products, the brief's as true today as it ever was - "Create the best sound in the world regardless".
