Doug started his passion for A/V working sales at Hifi Sound with Mark Bowden. Their love for the business lead to the idea that there was a vacuum in the space between large commercial installations and residential. They founded Audio By Design in 1983 in a garage in Medicine Lake, Minnesota. The mission was simple; bring into the homes the same level of technology, service, and customization that you found in high level commercial applications. Doug would become one of the founding members of the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association.
Mark began his journey working as a service bench technician at Hifi Sound working on and repairing high end audio equipment. Eventually he would start Audio By Design with Doug Winters. As Audio By Design grew, Mark would adopt the role of Operations. He is largely responsible for the day to day scheduling and service of appointments and installations.
