For over 28 years, Earthquake Sound has been producing a variety of high quality audio products that have
impressed audiophile communities around the world. It all started in 1984 when Joseph Sahyoun, a music freak and
Aerospace Engineer unhappy with the existing loud speaker technology and performance, decided to put his
advance engineering knowledge to use. He pushed technological boundaries to the limit to create the kind of
subwoofer he could live with. Earthquake quickly created a name for itself in the car audio industry and became well
known for its powerful subwoofers and amplifiers. In 1997, using his existing expertise in the audio industry, Joseph
Sahyoun expanded his company to home audio production.
Earthquake Sound has since evolved into a leader in the home audio industry, producing not only subwoofers and
amplifiers but surround speakers and tactile transducers as well. Engineered by audiophiles for audiophiles,
Earthquake Sound audio products are meticulously crafted to reproduce each and every single note perfectly,
bringing your home theater experience to life. With true dedication and full attention to details, Earthquake Sound
engineers continuously develop new and better products to meet customers’ needs and go beyond their
expectations.
From mobile audio to prosound and home audio, Earthquake Sound has been selected as the winner of many
prestigious awards based on sound quality, performance, value and features. CEA and numerous publications have
awarded Earthquake Sound with over a dozen design and engineering awards. Additionally, Earthquake Sound has
been granted many design patents by the USPO for revolutionary audio designs that have changed the sound of the
audio industry.
Headquartered in a 60,000 square foot facility in Hayward, California USA, Earthquake Sound currently exports to
over 60 countries worldwide. In 2010, Earthquake Sound expanded its export operations by opening a European
warehouse in Denmark. This accomplishment was recognized by the US Department of Commerce who honored
Earthquake Sound with an Export Achievement award at the 2011 Consumer Electronic Show. Just recently, the US
Department of Commerce presented Earthquake Sound with another Export Achievement award for expanding its
export operations in China.
