After work excesses

After dark things are discussed in a more relaxed manner with a glass of wine or near the bonfire... (Michael Klein, Claus Renftle, Holger Blum, Marc Weber)


After almost twenty five years in the company, some technical details are still strange to me - as at times is my (greatly appreciated) computerized workstation. The atmosphere at d&b today may not be as romantic as it was back in the early days, but even after our move to Backnang, the general feeling in the new, light rooms is as heartfelt and direct as ever. And my habit of wearing a suit and tie still makes me a somewhat exotic figure among my colleagues in their jogging pants or jeans and t-shirts!


... and on warm summer nights you may still see us debating and burning prototype boxes.


And so, the garage today is used as a garage again, or has it been torn down lately? Oh well, the times they are a-changing. d&b is now in its third decade of breaching audio technological horizons. New innovations, as can be expected from d&b, are in the offing. The staff are all in a good mood. The coffee's all gone. lt's close to early morning, again. Only silence is sweeter.


But we will definitely never follow the paths that all the others may follow (Daniele Tebaldi of d&b Italy).
