(November 27, 2025) GT Audio Works is the life’s work of one designer, Greg Takesh, who hand-builds every planar magnetic ribbon speaker that leaves his workshop. No outsourcing, no assembly line, just decades of accumulated know-how shaped into tall, elegant panels that have quietly become show favorites for those who hear them.
In this rare interview recorded at Capital Audiofest 2025, we sit down with Greg to explore his history, design philosophy, and his latest creation: the Giulietta Bellissima. He walks us through the evolution of his craft, the challenges of building a three-way planar system by hand, and why customers travel across the country just to spend a day listening in his home.
GT Audio Works has remained one of the industry’s best-kept secrets, and the force behind a sonic signature seared into my own audio memory banks.
Join me for a fantastic chat with one of the industry's good guys, but also a master craftsman who creates some of the best 2-channel speakers on the planet.
