Introduction

Earthquake  Sound  Corporation  was  founded  in  1984  by  Joseph  J.  Sahyoun,  a 
brilliant engineer and a well-respected researcher/developer of audio technologies. 
Mr. Sahyoun's infatuation with audio, his relentless pursuit of perfection, and his 
love for music drove him to excel Earthquake Sound as a leader in this industry. 
Hence the hi-fi speakers: TITAN towers a.k.a. Tigris.
