“One Good Ear”
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." -Confucius
Over the years, I can honestly say that I‘ve had the pleasure of representing and selling some of the finest Home Audio brands and products in the industry!
In 1978, I began my journey as a part time employee in what was, at the time, the largest retail chain in Canada; Atlantique Image & Son in Montreal. Essentially, I’ve been in the industry since the Sony Walkman®️ and VCR’s were first introduced!
Yup, I’m « that old »!
Years later I managed one of the most successful audio shops in Quebec; La Boutique Electronique until 1999.
I then moved to Toronto, where I was given the opportunity to work a sales representative for various audio companies since 2001.

Whether you are a manufacturer or distributor looking for representation in Canada, or a consumer looking for information on audio products; I hope this website answers all your questions!
In case it doesn't, please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to assist you.

With 45 years of experience in the audio, video, home theatre, and home automation industry I should be able to answer questions you may have... at least I will try!!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cheers!

I believe that the future of the Audio/Video industry is in stores that think outside the proverbial “box”…
Stores such as:
- Kennedy HiFi
- EQ audio video
- T2H
- Québec Acoustique
Stores that are willing to try something new and different from what you may find in “big box stores”…or on Amazon!
I believe in customer service and these stores are perfect examples of people with good
product knowledge and that provide a great customer experience.
Music = Memories
Music = Memories
Music = Memories
Like for many people; music is the link to my past and it brings back memories of the people who taught me the values that are dear to my heart: Honesty, Integrity and Humility. Sadly, many of them have passed away …
In their memory, I have put them on my website as some of the people who have marked my “audio journey”…
(People like my dad; Daniel with whom I worked with for 20 years until his untimely death in 1998)
Simplifying Things.…
As I get older, perhaps “wiser”, I am reducing the number of brands that I represent to focus on products & brands that I truly like!
The same could be said of the number of stores that I deal with!
« Less is More » is not just a catchy slogan for me; it has become a business model!

-My wife would argue that it should be "NO Good Ear" because I don’t listen! (apparently!) 😂
-I humbly acknowledge that there are many people with better hearing than I have…Especially after 40+ years of critically listening to music!
-I am very passionate about the work that I do and have always taken pride in the brands that I represe

-I am very passionate about the work that I do and have always taken pride in the brands that I represent...Sort of the way my favourite artist, Vincent Van Gogh, felt towards his paintings!
Sadly, most people only seem to know Van Gogh as "the guy who cut off his ear"
