How long has Walt Stinson been on the leading edge of consumer electronics? The ListenUp president once told us about the day in 1983 when he was stopped by airport customs agents because of contraband in his luggage. . .compact discs. Stinson and his company were ahead then and remain ahead, offering great solutions for sound systems and home theaters of all stripes. They do big jobs too: the scoreboard and sound system at CU's Folsom Field, for example. And they're still in the neighborhood, too, in West Washington Park.
