These are good times to be shopping for high-end headphones. Rosson Audio Design might not be at the tip of everybody’s tongue when thinking about cans manufacturers, but founder Alex Rosson has a CV that assuages a lot of concerns. A co-founder of Audeze, he has been involved with a number of significant audio products since leaving the company in 2015 to go his own way.
