Company Overview

Syng has created a hardware & software audio experience unlike anything the world has ever heard (or seen), forever changing how humans create and experience music through its proprietary Triphonic sound technology, SDK & software platform, and bold design. 
Syng was co-founded by Christopher Stringer who holds over 1,700 patents and was formerly with Apple as a lead design engineer. During his 20 years along with Steve Jobs, his contribution was substantial to the design of the PowerBook, iMac, iPod, iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Apple Watch, Apple Pencil, Home Pod, and USB-C.  
Atop the growth of its first product Cell(speaker) Alpha (already introduced), Syng plans to introduce Cell Astra (more accessible) & Cell Vea (highly portable), a Triphonic spatial sound SDK, and commercial embedded software licensing to other OEMs. Syng’s D2C business is currently operational in 34 countries through Syngspace App and is building out 3rd  party retail/wholesale channels with Magnolia Best Buy, Crutchfield, Amazon, Aqipa EU, and others. Syng’s B2B channels are growing through partnerships with professional audio system installers, specialty audio &  designer furniture showrooms, and premier music industry players including Universal Music Group and  Spotify.

Business Model

1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum
