25 Years of High-End Audio „Made in Germany“
Schmallenberg, August 2015 – It started in the 1990s: While home audio components became a self-evident and affordable part of home entertainment comfort, a small group of technically skilled music connoisseurs started to design and manufacture small series of exclusive electronics – capable to transfer concert hall sound quality into living rooms. A great deal of attention has also been given to premises like „handmade“ and „made in Germany”.
This was the advent of „High-End HiFi“ – which now stands as a synonym for outstanding audio brands and products, exclusively presented and retailed in selected stores and prestigiously displayed at the meantime well established trade fair format called “High End”.
While high-end home audio products from Germany and the USA were capturing the living rooms of audio sensualists, music- and electronic enthusiast Heinz Fischer implemented his vision of being first to bring the grandiose listening experience of legendary high-end HiFi components into automobiles. For the love of music. Uncompromising in design, technique and sound – rigidly adapted to automotive conditions.
The result: The BRAX High-End Car Audio series. By using hand-picked components, finest materials and handcrafting perfection the benchmarks set in the development and production of each BRAX amplifier and speaker generation have always been to the very top in order to merge high-end audio tradition with latest technology.
The BRAX success story has been perpetuated during the following years with the introduction of the HELIX and MATCH Series. Mean-time the company is a leading reference class audio provider with retail partners in more than 50 countries and a valued supplier of renowned car manufacturers. At the headquarters in Schmallenberg the company is focused on designing and manufacturing new line ups as well as contemporary product lines. Preferably regional suppliers allow for short delivery distances, direct communication as well as optimum procedures for best results. An exemplary diligent quality control is another cornerstone of the success and underscores the philosophy of the company.
In August Audiotec Fischer celebrated its 25th anniversary together with its employees, national and international customers as well as with a large circle of friends from all over the world.
Company founder and CEO Heinz Fischer, his wife and co-manager Gudrun as well as their son and future company successor Julian Fischer look to the future with great optimism: „The market is changing, and we are continuously growing. The demand for our products – particularly on an international level – keeps us confident and innovative. We are more than ever keen to play a very active part in developing the digital future of vehicles and to implement state of the art high-end HiFi tradition into modern automobiles.”
