You heard me, baby. I had a vision last night that I wanted to start a very small speaker business, making bookshelf speakers and possibly small subwoofers. This won't happen for a few months at the earliest but while I'm waiting I was wondering if any of you guys have a cool name for the business? Bartolo Audio is the only thing I can come up with, and I'm really not that happy with it. My last name in Italy is Bartolomeo, but that's too long.

I dunno.

Whatever you guys can come up with I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks :)

Actually Bartolomeo does not sound bad at all....it sounds good... I can envision an add selling "Ferraris and Lamborghinis with Bartolomeo sound components"

Good luck !!

I always thought it would be cool to bring a dead company back to life. It doesn't really fit your model, but they are ideas to look at.

http://audiotools.com/dead.html

In regards to a suggested name, I would say Event Horizon Audio or Black Hole Audio, but the definitions aren't conducive to the original idea; although entirely applicable. I would like there to be something dark, subhuman or even a play on words that sounds cool, to be my choice.

Be original, not normal and safe.

There are alot of words in regards to Astronomy that would be neat and convey a sense of "out of this world" or "omniscient" images, but you would have to be able to back that up and not make them think you were just a Trekkie.

No offense to Trekkies.

Good luck.

OH man event horizon audio would be so pimping, I would have to buy them just because of the name. And yes I know its not just a movie :rolleyes:

Thanks for the input so far, guys.

Doro, I like where you're going. I was thinking of something along those lines but could only come up with Borealis Audio, Borealis Sound, etc. Then I thought about Celestial Audio. Low and behold, some guy already has it!

http://www.celestialaudio.com/

I have many months to come up with a name but thought I'd throw it out here while the idea is still fresh in my mind. Keep them coming guys. If someone does come up with the final name I'll ship you a surprise package. :D

Careful using your real name. Lots of legal hassles could result. Form an S corporation. No one will be able to sue the hell out of your personal finances. Best of luck !!

Too much like Celestron too - whether the telescope or the old speaker it screams mid-market to me...

How about:

Binary Audio - "Gravity in Sound" (commonly known as double stars. Techinically two stars that revolve around a common center of gravity - like your bookshelves)

I have always thought about doing this too - I picked out a name even... which might be a little pretentious but it went with my last name:
Audio V - "truth in sound" (my last name is Virtue) - anyway, best of luck to you if you decide to go with it, I will be envious! :)

Hey! Does the first two seasons (original) on DVD make me a nerd? Or does using a word like nerd do that? :eek:

You were looking for something a little dark. How about

Umbra Audio.

Umbra.
From the Latin for shade, it is the shadow area defining a total eclipse. or the dark central region of a sunspot.

Keeping it dark in different genres:

Musically, you could go for Nocturne Audio or Nocturne Systems

Nocturne - A musical composition that has a romantic or dreamy character with nocturnal associations.

Or you could go for the film angle Noir Audio or Systems

Noir -- "The term was coined by postwar French film critics as film noir (black film) to describe the sort of movie characterized by dark photography and a despairing, doom-laden sense of life. Scholars of the mystery story found it convenient to use the term for work that shared the same attitude…Typical themes in noir work include obsessive love (or hate, or both), amnesia, illness, betrayal, and man-as-the-plaything of fate" ( Source : DeAndrea, 403
