Andrew Jones Documentary Begins Production

A new documentary will examine the success of Andrew Jones, who has designed loudspeakers for KEF, Pioneer, TAD, Elac and now MoFi.

Andrew Jones Documentary Announced

Audiophiles are well acquainted with the loudspeaker designs of Andrew Jones, but what do they really know about the man behind the white curtain. Rose City Media Group has announced the kick-off of production of a new documentary film about his life and audio career. The film, which will be directed by Emiko, will take viewers inside his journey creating some of the most acclaimed loudspeakers of the past four decades.

Wherein the Hi-Fi industry usually focuses on the “how” aspect of things produced, this film is geared to focus on what motivated and influenced him from early childhood to modern day.

Additionally, and perhaps moreover, the film aims to share with audiences a holistic picture of who Andrew Jones is, what drives him, what inspires him to create, and to answer a series of questions that face not only the Hi-Fi industry but offers an extension to audiences outside of that as it takes a look into the music and creative world, and indeed, presents a unique and engaging point of view to anyone who is looking to pave a path forward in making their dreams come alive.

The subject of this film, Andrew Jones, is known for his work as an award-winning loudspeaker designer. Having gotten his start at KEF, then growing to be at the helm of the design process at Pioneer, TAD, and Elac, most recently in 2022, Jones was invited to join MoFi Electronics to spearhead an innovative new line of loudspeakers.

The inaugural model, the SourcePoint 10, launched November 2022 to great excitement and acclaim. Jones’s near-lifelong passion for audio began in his early teens and loudspeaker design and development quickly became the focus of that. In total, his schooling, professional career, and commitment to audio and speakers now extends into his 6th decade, with no signs of slowing down.

Of the production, Jones says, I am honored that Emiko finds my life and achievements of such interest, beyond just the world of audio that I work within, that she is inspired to make this documentary. I’m fascinated to observe the process of how she tells this story and hope that this gives others some insight into how they can, just like me, follow their passion and fulfill their dreams.”

Director Emiko remarks, “I am truly delighted that Andrew has put his trust in my vision to tell his story. While most people in hifi audio know him as an industry leader and giant, it’s equally important for the world to know about the man behind the designs as his story will inspire so many. I am looking forward to working with him.”
