IRP professional sound products L.P.
At IRP Professional Sound Products, we have been committed to
the ideal of making sound as accessible as possible for people
since 1946, when the original Industrial Research Products,
Inc., opened for business under the guidance of Hugh Shaler
Knowles. Trained as a research physicist and commissioned
by the US Government to work on military communications
applications, Knowles applied his knowledge to the development
of subminiature microphones, and established Knowles Electronics
in 1953.
Knowles Electronics became the world's largest manufacturer
of subminiature transducers for applications ranging from military
ultrasonics to consumer hearing aids.
In the late 1960's Industrial Research Products Inc. (IRPI) became a independent
research and development division within Knowles Electronics and developed
sophisticated audio electronics to complement the high technology microphones.
In 1970 IRPI developed the worlds first commercial all-electronic
digital audio delay, which avoided the problems of distortion and
mechanical breakdown prevalent in earlier electro-mechanical systems.
Building on these success, IRPI subsequently developed a range of
products and patented circuitry's that continue to set benchmark
standards for the audio industry, including the Voice-Matic® Automatic
Microphone Mixer, the Level-Matic® Automatic Gain Control, the TEQ®
Transversal Equalizer, and the widely-acclaimed System 41® Modular
Signal Processing System.
|
| Today, IRP Professional Sound Products (the IRPI name was dropped in 1989) is an independent company with offices and engineering teams in the United States and Germany.

Linked by video conferencing,
the two organizations work together to develop
products based on the best of both German and American precision engineering innovations.
