boom3 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Don Keele worked with Newman at Electrovoice and with PWK at K&A so I feel pretty confident that they met through Keele or at a convention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRH Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Keele worked for about a year at K&A in 1977. Don is now an advisor to KHMA. I have yet to see direct evidence that Paul corresponded with Ray Newman, but I'm virtually certain that he did. There was a long-standing positive relationship between EV and K&A.

"For one year, starting in 1976, he worked for Klipsch and Associates in Hope, Arkansas, as chief engineer involved in the company's commercial line of loudspeakers." http://www.xlrtechs.com/dbkeele.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Thanks Edgar: is there any record of products that Don was responsible for? I know he took a look at the Cornwall and told PWK that it was pretty much done like dinner and to leave well enough alone it was not broken and did not need fixing.

I asked him about it once, a long time ago, but I do not remember his answer. (I met Keele while we were both working at Altec Lansing / EV back in the mid 1990s.)

JRH Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Keele was responsible for the MTM piezo tweeter array. I suspect he had a hand in the HIP. His AES paper, What's so Sacred About Exponential Horns, caused a little "friction". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 There was some collaboration PWK did with the design of the EV Aristocrat speakers if remember what I read correctly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRH Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 EV paid PWK royalties on the Aristocrat, Georgian, Patrician designs, and possibly other models. EV was one of the relatively few audio companies that Paul had a decades-long positive relationship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
