HPS-4000

Work on the HPS-4OOO® sound system began in 1979. Boston native John F. Allen was busy doing sound consulting for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, The Boston Ballet and Public Broadcasting's WGBH. Always a music lover. Allen was extremely disappointed by the lack of quality audio found in most movie theatres. Armed with the success and experience gained in building and operating large sound systems, including those powerful enough to amplify the Boston Symphony outdoors, Allen began the research for a new high performance stereo system for motion picture theatres. In 1979, HIGH PERFORMANCE STEREO™ was founded and in 1980, the first HPS-4OOO® theatre sound system was installed.
