I was a DJ in the 1990’s anything high-quality sound systems cost a fortune and they were hard to find. A part of my overall DJ appearance was my oversized headphones. Music combined with my travel lifestyle was part of my DJ image.
I also studied music from the age of 12, and my musical talent was being able to identify a good pair of headphones. When I was practicing no one else wanted to hear me playing, so high-quality headphones were important to me.
My other passion is that when seen in public, my headphones have to represent my funky outlook on public lifestyle. I do choose a pair of headphones by appearance. It’s all apart of my music image and my global travel.
This is why I chose to team up with Erzetich audio.
When I am traveling I like to look very retro and super damn cool.

In his own words,
But most of all, I want like-minded aficionados to enjoy music with the same quality of sound as I do. Blending my knowledge of electronics, acoustics and design, I am able to accomplish my goals. So far I have created four headphone amps and two models of headphones, all of which have been well received by industry reviewers, professional musicians and fellow audiophiles. The designs have been applauded for their unobtrusive and timeless look and have featured in many magazines. When I design a product, I intend to create a work of art.
