This year at Leon has been big for us: 2017 is our 20th year in business. As we reflect back on this milestone, it’s been amazing to see just how far we’ve come. From a few recent college grads making speakers in a garage, to a team of over 50 dedicated and passionate employees in a 20,000 sq. ft. factory, we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished and grateful to still be able to show up and do what we love every single day.

Turning 20 isn’t just about looking back though, it’s about forging the path forwards. Our roots in the arts, passion for music, and drive to transform the way that people think about technology has shaped our vision—which remains the same today as it did two decades ago: to mix art with audio, design with technology, and business with bohemia. This vision is what has lead us to create our most innovative products and is what will allow us to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the AV industry.

But, it’s more than just about the products we create. It’s about the people behind our products. Our passions. Our perspective. Our inspiration. And we want to share all of that with you.

Welcome to The Sounding Board, the official Leon Speakers blog. This is where you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at all things Leon: from new products, to Leon Loft performances, to what inspires us, employee highlights, and everything in between. This is our sounding board, our place to share our world with you. Welcome.
