Phat Planet Recording Studio
“Bill, this is Greg Begland from Phat Planet Studios in Orlando. It was a real pleasure to meet you finally at the audio show. I have admired your designs since high school when I had some of the old glossy photos from your old mailer catalogs in my locker. Aaron and I thought you had some of the best sound of any systems at RMAF – if you couldn’t tell by my reaction after we played our demo.” - Greg Begland, Phat Plant Studios

Herb Power of Power’s House of Sound, had this to say about his Legacy FOCUS speakers:

|
I rely on FOCUS in my home as one of the final checks of my studio work. They are a great bridge between the studio monitor sound and the ”smooth” home sound. FOCUS has the range and detail to handle even the most dynamic recordings.” Powers House of Sound, which opened in 1997, is the product of Herb Powers' three decades of experience in mastering, including stints as an engineer at Frankford/Wayne Mastering and Hit Factory Mastering (where he also served as chief engineer for nine years). During that time, Powers built up a formidable clientele that in many instances dates back to his work as a DJ in several pioneering Manhattan dance clubs. It was there that he laid the foundation for a mastering philosophy that aims to make records "sound as good as they can in the real world, on the kinds of playback systems that people actually use, not only what you see in the audiophile magazines," Powers says. Powers' clients include Lauryn Hill, TLC, Mase, Puff Daddy, Babyface, Jay Z, Usher, Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men, Mary J. Blige, Brian McKnight, Will Smith, Jennifer Lopez, Toni Braxton, Notorious BIG, Kirk Franklin and Vanessa Williams. |
