“I wasn’t trying to build a brand. I was trying to protect musicians.”
Long before in-ear monitors were standard on every stage, Dr. Michael Santucci was trying to solve a quieter problem. As an audiologist with a deep love for music, he saw firsthand how many musicians were losing their connection to the art they loved—through preventable hearing loss.
This segment offers a rare glimpse into a parallel origin story. Not one driven by tour demands or technical flash, but by a sincere effort to make live performance safer. From filtered earplugs to early balanced armature designs, Santucci’s work planted seeds that still shape the industry today.
His approach was different. His impact is undeniable.
