The story so far 1998-2000

1998
d&b risks the move into the New World, Colin Beveridge creates d&b audiotechnik in the USA.
1999
By this time d&b has already become a multinational company, however further development is a foot. Shinichiro Yonekura opens the d&b audiotechnik office in Japan. Meanwhile the home premises in Backnang are splitting at the seams; it is necessary to carry out some conversion and reconstruction work and build Factory II.
2000
d&b has redefined sound system references again and again, and is now doing so in live monitoring with the introduction of the M2. Again more international offices are being opened; Didier Lubin gives neighbouring France d&b with the opening of the Paris office, while David Rosello heads up the Spanish office in Barcelona.
