History

Established in 1997.

We had driven through Litchfield and seen this building sitting empty for years and always said «someday we’ll buy that building and open our own business in this cute little town». In the fall of 1996 there was a «For Sale» sign in front of the empty building. We set up an appointment to look at it just to see what a building like that on 2 major highways in a small town would cost. We came away with a purchase agreement. Now we just had to decide what kind of business. Mark had enjoyed working in the sales and installation of automotive electronics business for several years and with Cindy’s business and accounting background it seemed the natural choice. We remodeled the building and opened the store on May 1, 1997. We both worked evening jobs for the first year and a half while running the store during the day and trying to get the word out that we were here. Sometimes it seems as though we’re one of Litchfield’s best kept secrets. We’re hoping the Internet can help change that!

Meet the Business Owner

Mark O.

Business Owner

Mark has been interested in music his entire life. As a child he couldn’t get enough of listening to and singing along with his parents’ records. When he was a teen he ran rings of wire around the ceiling of his room to improve his radio reception. He was in band and choir throughout high school and majored in music at college. After 8 years touring surrounding states as a singer and sound man with a southern rock band he settled down in Mankato, MN and began working with 2 close friends in the mobile electronics industry. He spent several years learning under a master installer. By this time most of his family had moved to the Eden Valley area so when a building went up for sale in Litchfield he decided to pursue a dream of owning his own business. Several years later he realized another dream of adding a music store to the electronics business. Now when he’s not installing sound systems, remote starts, etc. in vehicles you’ll find him strumming a guitar in the showroom. Life is good!
