Respect the Music
Listening to music can be emotional, impressive, relaxing or enjoyable. At that, it doesn´t really matter what kind of music is the personal favorite, whether it´s Instrumental, Jazz, Electro, Latin, Classic, Rock or any other music direction. However, audio reproduction quality at each desired volume is elementary. Some music styles require higher levels while others prefer the soft tones. GROUND ZERO considers all the different wishes of customers during the development of new products. Along with this, the target is to create the most realistic sound, to transfer the soul of the music and the intention of the performer. Summarized to one phrase: RESPECT THE MUSIC!
