I was a little different as a kid. Starting in Jr High and through High School, I did not have a bed in my room. Instead, I opted for a sofa so I could position my speakers and listening position properly. Most of the people who knew me back then thought of me as the stereo guy. In my 20s through my 30s I worked on and off, for a high-end audio shop that had been around since I was a kid. I was lucky enough to bring home any equipment I wanted… as long as I brought it back. At the pinnacle of its popularity, I also managed the largest mobile audio store in the area but my passion was two channel home audio. Now, I have six children (most grown) and run a digital marketing agency in New Orleans. Although I'm a terrible writer, I strangely enjoy writing about audio equipment and have done so for a handful of online periodicals over the years, reaching my apex at Tracking Angle.

Jonti moved from the UK to Japan at the age of 20 and went on to establish himself as a writer, editor and translator covering music, art, culture and technology from his base in Kyoto, the country’s ancient capital. His words have appeared in publications such as The Wire and Time Out, countless museum exhibitions, Japanese newspapers, and the scripts of famous speakers. His occasional leftfield productions and mixes of Japanese music are played on BBC Radio Lancashire's long-running dub-oriented On The Wire show.
Jonti is passionate about vintage audio gear, particularly Luxman, Tannoy, Leak, Quad, Decca, Thorens and EAR equipment (all of which have been in his system at different points). He is also learning to play the double bass, while his son is a budding guitarist who has appeared with legendary John Peel favourites Maher Shalal Hash Baz. A lifelong fan of Japanese underground music, you’ll find Jonti listening at obscure live venues around Kyoto and Osaka most weeks. Introduce yourself and he'll happily buy you a beer.

This high school dropout initially disappointed his liberal Jewish mother (who was one of New York state's campaign managers for John F. Kennedy's presidential run) but went on to form one of metal's most successful bands, Twisted Sister in 1973. When Twisted Sister released STAY HUNGRY on Atlantic Records on May 10, 1984, the metal world was never the same. Containing the iconic hits, "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock" (along with, "The Price"), Twisted turned the music world on its ears and revolutionized MTV with a pair of accompanying videos that became two of the network’s most popular to this day. John "J.J." French is also a serious audiophile/music lover who contributes also to Copper and Goldmine magazines.

Jason Kennedy’s first exposure to the differences between audio components came in his early twenties when he heard a vintage system with a Decca London cartridge on a Garrard 301 turntable, Leak Stereo 20 tube amp and Quad ESL 57 loudspeakers. Despite or maybe because of its vintage this was a mind blowing system, one that reinvigorated his favourite records so comprehensively that he was hooked forever more. Jason Kennedy started reviewing when he joined Hi-Fi Choice magazine for its transition from an A5 to an A4 monthly publication in 1987. By dint of persistence he was made Editor and stayed until 2001. Jason Kennedy still contributes to HFC alongside a number of audio publications. For reasons that aren’t hard to fathom he has become a sound junkie but would rather be listening to a great new record than a shiny piece of kit, well most of the time anyway. His obsession began as a result of a love of music that he was unable to imitate on a musical instrument, this lead to a rather protracted case of so-called air-guitar but he has, with effort, managed to overcome it.
Jason Kennedy’s audio tastes are pretty broad and he finds that the majority of well made components can be made to produce a musical sound if set up appropriately. But when you want to hear music at its best it’s hard to beat big speakers and hot amplifiers, he’s not averse to turntables either. Why else would you fill the house with vinyl?
