I don't post here often, butI just wanted to see if the word about Jason had been passed on. I only wish that my Duettas were in full function right now, I always tend to my sorrows with music.
Very Sad News: Jason Bloom of Apogee Is Dead
One of the true pioneers in Audio, who was the driving force behind the amazing Apogee ribbon speakers, has passed.
I do not have specific details, but I do not believe he was that old, as was David Hafler, who also died recently, but was very old.
Very few people had the passion for high fidelity that Mr. Bloom had. Personally, as an owner of the original Apogee "The Apogee" Full Range ribbon speakers, I feel very fortunate to experience his genius.
Here are a couple of links about this sad news:
