Shortly after they commenced manufacturing amplifiers based on Tovar Sr.'s designs, they noticed that the market for their technologies was different than what they expected. "We started out designing speakers for conventional live music applications," says Tovar Jr. "but we started to notice that there was much greater demand from churches and houses of worship." Since then they have managed to address the needs of this market while still designing loudspeakers that are perfectly capable of delivering sound for the largest of live music venues. This has all been done with the help of Powersoft amplifier modules.
