Ecco’s designer Beau Robb
Robb allowed us to get heavily involved the acoustic properties
of the room and that greatly added to the overall warmth and
performance of the system. We were also given the opportunity
to align speakers in the ideal locations for system time alignment”.
Lodi previously stated: “Everything that Turbosound produces is
ROHS compliant and therefore produced within a ‘green’ process.
It is also WEEE compliant, which means that it is recyclable.
The wood is bought from sustainable sources; the cabinets are
painted with water-based paint, so there are no harmful chemicals
involved; they are high efficiency - so power consumed to play
them loud is reduced! Finally, all suppliers are within the EU, so the
carbon footprint is reduced and they are shipped by sea from the
UK factory to minimise the impact on the environment.”
Joe Lodi believes this is an ongoing trend for the future of audio.
“Efficiency will play a huge factor in amplifier design as seen in
recent times. We will also see many remanufactured components
as well as sustainable and recycled materials. Advances in self-
powered speaker technology also provide an extremely efficient
approach in powering speakers. [There will be] more recycling
of composites, woods, plastics and other building materials. I
see many internal component being re used for new equipment.
I see amplifier and speaker chassis being recycled for other
