LAT International

Apparently LAT is closing their doors. Check out their website.

I talked to a tech person associated with the company. It appears that they are indeed shutting down. I still have a pair of LAT IC-200's which I think are quite good ... a definite step up from Signal Cable that I started with.

As some have already said, the closure is due to the owner's health. It's very unfortunate that these small audio companies don't have any kind of business continuity plans in place. I can think of several who are no longer in business ... since I've been involved with this hobby.

I was their customer for many years. Sorry to hear about Lou's health. They certainly provided a great product for the money. I still have some of their cables in my system.

A lot of the big value cable "manufacturers" are more aptly called cable craftsmen/cobblers. I started out many years ago with LAT and since then have bought Grover Huffman, Homegrown Audio (I believe now out of business), Clear Day, and my favorite, Black Cat/Chris Sommovigo.

I've recently learned LAT has closed and have had no luck contacting them. Does anyone have a contact? I'm actually interested in trying to revive the company. I've been a customer from way back and their cables were outstanding. Thanks in advance.
