George Kazantzis가 설립한 Aku-audio는 아테네에 있으며, Kostas Kazantzis와 같이 자신만의 스피커를 만들고 있죠. 그래도 최상위 모델은 가격때문인지 그나마 전형적인 스피커에서 벗어나지 않았으나 그 아래 제품군은 팔리거나 말거나 스타일로 자유롭게 만들고 있습니다.
뭐 좋습니다. 이런 사람도 있고 저런 사람도 있어야 발전이 있는 것이니까요. 월드워Z에서 이스라엘은 회의체에서 무조건 반대로 생각하게하는 1인을 두어 위험에 대비하지 않았습니까? 오디오계라고 그러지 말란법없으니까요. ^^
제품명은 그리스 신화에서 따왔다 하는데 그러거나 말거나... 제품 설명의 장황한 내용은 역시나 뻔한것으로 별거 없습니다.
