Headphone Inventor Dies
Marty Lange

Martin Lange Jr.
In 1958, LANGE was the engineer who developed the prototype for the first KOSS Stereophone, later known as personal stereo headphones.

The rest is headphone history.

“MARTY LANGE was instrumental in the development of the first SP/3Stereophone,” said KOSS, founder and now chairman of the KOSS CORP. “His creativity and dedication were critical to the business we built together.”

LANGE died of natural causes last week in hospice care at his GLENDALE home. He was 82.

BEST of Show

Bill Gates final Keynote and some insight into the next digital decade..

I wish I was there! obviously there is a ton of stuff to see there and just a few items here…. The cool part, i noticed is that a lot of the updated or new items are more eco friendly or green, meaning they consume less energy or emit less radiation. I’m waiting to see where the OLED technology goes in all the new televisions, and it would be dope to see Mac at CES next year!

very short and to the point, there is not covering the entire show especially if i didnt go! :(

ask about me!!
