A bit more about Signature Sound . . .

“Signature Sound started life in 1990 by owner, operator Rich Brkich. At the time, I was working full time as a System & Project Engineer at Lockheed Martin here in Syracuse New York and Signature Sound was a part time business to help sell some products I thought where very good and needed representation here in upstate New York as well as to help feed my audiophile passion. You see, before I was ever a engineer, I was very interested in music and the gear that focused on quality music reproduction. In large part, the passion was picked up from my dad as I was raised around Dynaco, AR, and other great affordable Hi-End HiFi gear of the age (not to mention my dad’s varied interests in music which is another story :-) ). Then there was those early copies of Stereophile Magazine, Audio Magazine and others which where around the house which helped fuel my passion (and interest in electronics). I think i was around 11 years old when I went to my first HiFi show with my Dad!”

“Anyway, getting back to the mid 90’s with the defense industry work on the wain, I made the decision to transition to operating Signature Sound as a full time home based business. It is just the reality of the small 2 channel HiFi marketplace here in Central New York. In order to specialize only in great 2 channel HiFi (I was not interested in the burgeoning HT {Home Theater} and custom install HT markets as well), the only way to keep such a HiFi only concern going here was to keep it home based with its low associated overhead if I wanted any hope to continue paying the bills (which Signature Sound has been doing since the mid 90’s). And, despite today’s lean and tough times, I am still here and working at it! We specialize almost completely in good ol great 2-channel Hi-End Audio (dabble in a little HT here and there on occasion) and use my skills as a engineer and a audiophile to carry great gear, show it here for those few local folk or those that pass through the Syracuse New York area, and use my skill as a engineer & enthusiast to help customers wind their way through putting a great system together. I don’t have all the products/solutions for everyone, but I do work for you the customer and always try to get my customers pointed in the right direction to their HiFi needs.” – Rich Brkich (January 2012)
