His designs are displacing class A and valve amplifiers in all the niches they held until now and are making truly audiophile performance available in very compact, energy-efficient products. In 2010 he delivered a shot across the bow of high-end loudspeaker design. The Grimm Audio LS1 was immediately hailed by several reviewers as the best hi-fi speaker so far. With the foundation of Kii Audio in 2014 he has turned his full attention to loudspeakers with the intention to revolutionize them in the same way as he did amplifiers.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7d4121f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7d4121f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-216ec2a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"216ec2a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-89083aa animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"89083aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-02-02.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-5734\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-02-02.png 700w, https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-02-02-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-02-02-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-74fbf56 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"74fbf56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Chris Reichardt<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-da8f338 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"da8f338\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">CEO<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b6a20ad animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b6a20ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLearning to play music at the age of nine, Chris Reichardt went on to become a professional guitar and music theory teacher in the 1980s.

At Kii Audio Patrick combines his engineering qualities with his love for music and is teaming up with Bruno and Bart to expand Kii&#8217;s future portfolio.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-92656aa e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"92656aa\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-621083e animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"621083e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-09-02.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-5740\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-09-02.png 700w, https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-09-02-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kiiaudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/team-profile-image-09-02-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96cbab4 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"96cbab4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Jed Allen<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff8e861 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ff8e861\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Sales Manager Professional Audio<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d19ce17 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d19ce17\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:500,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt college studying Piano Tuning and Technology, Jed discovered his love for all things musical was better served in the electronic side of the industry. Then having worked in Music Instrument retail in various stores in London Jed also found out that he enjoyed working in the business side of the Industry. After working for Roland UK as a sales manager for a number of years, the emerging computer-based audio recording was the obvious market for the future. He then worked for Digidesign\/Avid running UK and then EMEA sales before working for Universal Audio for 6 years running their International sales. As DSP has dramatically changed the recording market Jed believes that the combination of great cabinet design, the latest in DSP and Class D amplifiers that Kii Audio represents will drive this change in the professional monitor market.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-799296a e-con-full elementor-hidden-mobile e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"799296a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet the Kii Team Innovators at Heart, Disruptors by Trade Bruno Putzeys CTO With the invention of UcD and Ncore, Bruno Putzeys is probably single-handedly responsible for turning class-D amplification into the preferred way of building high-end audio amplifiers.
