These bronze input plates are being machined for DeVore Fidelity’s O/Reference Series loudspeakers.

These components, along with the bronze port tubes we also manufacture for DeVore, are designed to be de-coupled from the O/Ref speaker cabinet to help reduce vibration.

The plates are cast in Indiana, machined in our Richmond shop on Haas VF-2 vertical mills, and then shipped to Brooklyn, where John DeVore crafts his loudspeakers.

We’ve had the opportunity to support through the production of machined bronze components for a number of their speaker models over the years.

It’s rewarding to see work that begins as raw material in our shop become part of a finished product celebrated by audiophiles around the world.

Relationships like these are some of the most satisfying parts of OEM manufacturing ⚒️⚙️🛠️

One of the ways we bring value to our industrial clients is by maximizing material yield in high value production runs. Today, Sarah, Tektonics Senior Industrial Designer, is programming the automatic bandsaw for a job that Alex, Machine Shop Manager, is working on in the main machine shop with the Haas CNC centers. Sarah's programming the saw to optimize the length and cut of the bar material that will be fixtured over in the CNC mill by Alex. The value? We're working to meet our client's shortened timeline, while still increasing efficiency in addition to reducing cost. Our versatile design and manufacturing teams work closely together, and support each other in our work to deliver high-quality parts to clients.

From Fern & Roby design concept to Tektonics ex*****on. 👀⚙️

Sarah, our Senior Industrial Designer, and Alex, our Machine Shop Manager, are discussing a first article for a tonearm rest height adaptor for the F&R Montrose Turntable. Fit and finish checked, approved, and production is officially underway.

This is what happens when industrial design and precision manufacturing work side by side under one roof. Fast iteration, thoughtful problem-solving, and quality finished parts that are ready for real-world use.

Truth? It can be a challenge to explain to folks all that we are capable of. We often find ourselves surprised at how tough it can be to answer a seemingly simple question like "so, what exactly do you all DO?" What we do (and have done for more than 20 years) is take on an incredibly diverse range of projects and deliver results. We're fortunate to have an amazing team with a very unique mix of in-house skills and capabilities; as trained artists, industrial designers, machinists & craftspeople, we can take a germ of an idea and guide it from concept to full production mode, all under one roof. We also love to just crank out parts in the shop, if that's what our client needs. We are experts in materials and processes and have amazing relationships across supporting trades.

The real question is: how can we help YOU accomplish what YOU want to do? Contact us and request a quote, or visit our website to learn more.

From our team to yours, we wish everyone a safe, happy and healthy New Year. Thank you for your support in 2025, we are looking forward to tackling new and exciting projects in 2026 and beyond!

Alex making chips on the HAAS VF2 vertical mill! Specifically, deburring machined bronze speaker port tubes for our client DeVore Fidelity (these components will be a key part of their O/Bronze loudspeakers). This operation involves a 90-degree chamfering tool to smooth the edges (the ports are actually isolated from the finished speaker cabinet to minimize the effect of vibrations that can impact performance). Our client liked the finished product so much they immediately ordered more, so Alex used a set-up that allowed him to run two parts at a time to maximize efficiency.
