Gary Morrison has a 30-year career in the high-end audio industry, most of it as co-owner and chief designer at Plinius Audio. He was responsible for Pliny&#8217;s sound from 1987 to 2005 and played a crucial role in the creation of a series of highly regarded and well-reviewed audio amplifiers. Ross Stevens has worked as an industrial designer for more than 25 years, with a particular passion for high-end audio. He has worked with leading designers, including Philippe Starck, and high-end audio brands such as B&amp;W, Perreaux and Plinius. Ross was responsible for the industrial design of the iconic curved series of Plinius products introduced in 2002. The collaboration between Gary and Ross in designing Plinius products led to a close professional and personal friendship, ultimately resulting in the creation of PureAudio.      <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description Freakuence!
