Anthony Audio History


 1997
 - Anthony became the gold medalist in the TESDA organized National Electronics Competition by putting together a regulated power supply in 11 minutes flat.

         -started researching on the design and details of highly priced speakers.

1999
     - Anthony designed his first home theater speakers, at 20 years of age, taking apart surplus speakers from Japan sold at the Port of Manila, tweaking its internals and putting them back together to make a better-sounding speaker system.

-   Through friends who owned expensive speakers, he started repairing and tweaking high-end speakers and took notes of every nook and cranny of each speaker that he worked on.

2001
-   In his dream to be the very first Filipino inventor to produce high-quality speakers that surpass European and American standards without the extremely high price tag, Anthony came out with his own speaker design, from the cones, to the coils, to the magnets and materials used, and had it produced by Fostex and have it shipped to Manila where his team assembles it from scratch.

2004
- Anthony, became a member of the Filipino audiophile website PinoyDVD.com, it gave him the break in the industry, he has produced more than 12,000 speakers ranging from car, bookshelf, home theater, full-range audio and cinematic speakers with a price range between Php 3,500 to P120,000.

2005

-    Paranaque Congressman Ed Zialcita helped out Anthony by ordering 1,200 pairs of speakers that provided him seed money in purchasing machineries and other power tools to make his production meet international standards and be more efficient.

-   Anthony has a lineup of 40 different speaker systems ranging from the book-shelf speakers to high-end cinema speakers—that will put high-end expensive speakers to shame.

2012
-  Airlift Asia Inc offers a partnership, from then, Antony Audio Inc was formed. Many new speakers from home theater to Hi-Fi speakers were developed. Anthony Audio became the “hot topic” in some of the online forums. They have joined the annual November Hi-Fi Show, an exhibit were branded and most expensive speakers were audition by audiophiles and other people who loves music. From that November Hi-Fi Show, he met President Benigno Aquino and other well-known people. Anthony Audio began its popularity because of its good quality but in a Filipino costs.
