THE DESIGN MINDS BEHIND THE MONSTER HOME THEATRE

MUSIC REFERENCE POWER AMPLIFIERS

Richard Marsh – There are few experts in the world able to solve the complex problems of AC power, and Richard Marsh is one of the illustrious few. With Noel Lee, he designed MMAT amplifier circuitry, and the True Power Meters, along with many other refinements to power amplifier design. Richard Marsh had designed best-selling power conditioning components costing thousands and thousands of dollars, before bringing his expertise to Monster Power. Richard developed Monster’s patented Clean Power™ circuitry for Monster Power’s power conditioning products, and is also responsible for several other groundbreaking designs. Richard’s power circuitry expertise, and his research of amplifier and capacitor designs led to his development of the Servo-DC feedback concept in power amplifiers – a design used by virtually every amplifier manufacturer today. His reputation as both the inventor of the MultiCap™ internal bypass capacitor and the driving force behind the high-end audio balanced circuit design concept, has influenced the audiophile community for many years. Richard is also responsible for some of the world’s most respected high-end audio product designs, essays and articles, and has contributed to Fi, The Absolute Sound and Audio magazines. Richard Marsh is listed in Who’s Who in the West.

Demian Martin – Demian Martin has been solving complex AC power problems for several years. As a technical consultant for successful paper and steel mills, Demian helped create several innovative AC power solutions. He developed techniques to dramatically improve the efficiency of these factories’ high power motor control systems up to 50,000 watts – helping them avoid the costly premiums many factories must pay for AC power inefficiency. Demian was also the co-founder of Spectral Audio and was the chief designer of their many pioneering designs for amplifiers, D/A converters, and other high-end audio designs. He now brings his expertise to Monster Power’s elite research and development team.

Noel Lee – Always the passionate audiophile, Noel Lee is best known for popularizing the concept of high
performance audio cable over 25 years ago with the creation of Monster Cable. Originally a laser-fusion design
engineer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and later a touring musician, Noel invented or co-invented
products receiving over 125 U.S. and international patents, and he drives the explosive growth of The Monster
Group into more than 80 countries worldwide. Monster Power is his realization of a long-nurtured vision of
creating affordable power solutions that deliver the best possible sound and picture.	3
