Bruce passed last Wednesday, 1-13-21. He had been living in a board and care home for some months along with his wife, who survives him.
What a character he was! I saw him blow away many roomfuls of folks with his demos at various audio shows over the years. We laid mattresses against the walls for acoustics by day, and on the floor to sleep on by night. So many of us afflicted with the lifetime "horn fever" owe a debt of gratitude to Bruce. I regard him as the Father of Modern Hi Fi Horn Design. He took his vast knowledge of aerospace technology and applied it to audio, with stunning results. To say that he made his mark is an understatement; we should all be so fortunate.
