Sadly his passing was seemingly missed by many. Roy had a tremendous impact both on audio equipment and the birth of high-end audio magazines. Back in the '50s, Allison hired J. Gordon Holt to be Audiocraft magazine's tape editor and it was at Audiocraft that Gordon learned his craft. When I was a newbie to the hobby, you couldn't go into a store and not hear those weirdly shaped Allison speakers nestled in the corners of the room. Unfortunately never heard the Allison speakers ever sound good.
