After many unsuccessful attempts by various experts, Ed Van Halen had almost given up hope getting his main studio control room monitor speakers to a point where they could be really trusted.Then, he heard about a statement Roger Waters made some years ago: "If you want your monitors to be right, just call Ted Rothstein and do whatever he says." Ted then spent a few days in July 1999 modifying and tuning up his existing system. Ed and his engineers simply couldn't believe how good and workable Ted made it sound! Ed said to Ted: "Now I know why they call you 'soundGod'!"
