There is an interview in the July/August 2011 issue of the absolute sound, page 110, with Andy Payor, founder of Rockport Technologies. (I have never heard of either). Anyway, he is asked how he got into loudspeaker and turntable design. His answer is:

"But one day in the early 1980s I saw an ad in an audio magazine with Matthew Polk in his white lab coat, and I said to Tracie [Payor's wife]: "If this guy can do it, I can, too." So I set off with a zeal to build a loudspeaker"

I wonder if he bought a white lab coat?
