Each week here at downboy, LLC, we like to take a moment to get to know a little more about our amazing team. One question. Three Answers. No judgment.


This year’s Winter Olympics were held in Milan, near the famed  opera house Teatro alla Scala. Among the many design principles and material choices, the presence of 4 tiers of 36 private boxes (typically owned by the region’s nobility) in a horseshoe configuration contributed greatly to the overall acoustic profile of the space, which produced clear sound even for the poorer loggionisti in the “general admission” section (loggione). 

What do think about that?

““Seems like you are trying to get me to offer a Marxist critique of Acoustic Architecture in the late 1700’s. Not tonight.”

McKenna Shoberg, Retinal Photographer

“Sounds about how you think it would.”

Dan-O, Mono-instrumentalist

“I’ve heard you can hear a mouse skittering in the wings from the upper deck. Truly the stuff of dreams.”

Charles “Big Cheddar” Showalter, Nightwatchman
