Peachtree Audio
From the beginning of Peachtree, we've tried to merge old-school audiophile thinking, where sound quality always comes first, with a decidedly new-school digital/computer audio savvy mindset. The result has been a series of award-winning amplifiers, DACs and speakers enjoyed by music lovers all over the world.
Peachtree Audio introduced our first product in 2007: the ground-breaking Decco* integrated amplifier. Audio industry veterans Jim Spainhour and David Solomon recognized that music listeners were moving toward computer-based audio, but the business-as-usual industry was not adjusting. Unwilling to compromise audio quality for the admitted convenience of digital files, they conceived of a new kind of integrated amplifier.
1. Client
Through Circal Engineering, I worked closely to help develop the internal framework for the Shift product.
2. Challenge
We had to develop the internal structure and supports to fit a package that had very limited extra space.
3. Solution
I worked closely with Circal Engineering very early on in their board development to create mounting locations and other parameters so they could develop their electronics package. Being able to have input on the board layout allowed me to design mounting locations that would provide the best balance between functionality and layout.
