Doug Fowler

It is with a very heavy heart that I pass along the news I learned yesterday, Doug put up an amazing fight, but ultimately has lost his battle with cancer.  I don’t know a lot of details yet, I will pass them along as I hear.

RIP friend.

This is heartbreaking news. Thank you for letting us know. Doug was a friend to me, as well as a longstanding friend to this community. I'm sure he was the longest standing active member of ProSound Web, going back to the Compuserve days.

RIP friend.

Thanks, Ron.

Chip Self introduced me to Doug in the 90s. He tuned Mississippi Nights in STL - a new EV Xarray system for us [EV] by Chip. We only had KT DN8000s in amp rack and I rem Doug saying ‘my kingdom for a varicurve’. He was super knowledgeable about tuning and I learned from him then and through the years.

Rest in sound.

I’m sad to hear this. I only knew Doug from PSW, and that was very good.

My favorite Doug story,
We were sitting at the bar at Thurmans (the jazz, bourbon and taco joint he owned for a while) after a bit too much bourbon he starts telling me how the Danley Jericho series was all his idea.  Im like "sure sure Doug, we all have million dollar ideas... lol"
A few days later I'm sitting with Mike Hedden and Tom Danley, discussing the new sound system for Powell Hall, unprovoked, Tom brings up that time Doug Fowler gave him the idea for the Jerichos... Soooo... next time was my turn to buy the bourbon.  He never let me forget that, he'd come to shows at the symphony, sit behind me and remind me how good HIS speakers sounded. Good Times.

Sad news. I only knew Doug through this list, but I valued his input and his vision and commitment to maintaining it. RIP and condolences to all who knew him.
