Eddie Current was created by audio designer Craig Uthus, who has become known for his expertise in vacuum tube technology and understanding of audio engineering. Whether it's listening to the riff of one guitar or a 60-member symphony, Craig knows how to deliver their natural, rich soundstage.
Craig formerly worked for UREI, which was acquired by JBL Pro Audio, and Surround Sound, Inc., the very first company to develop and launch surround sound home theater to the world. He has also designed components for other manufacturers and served as a consultant.
In 1994, Craig returned to his first audio passion, vacuum tube technology. He approached art designer Joel Marshall about forming a unique audio company bringing back tube sound in the midst of the digital sound revolution. With Craig doing the design and circuits and Joel using his art expertise to create a very specific look in a high-end product line, Moth Audio was founded with a very different approach to hi fi.

The first product on Moth's design bench was a headphone amp. The goal was to create a listening experience without compromise. Moth's product line was reviewed in Stereophile as accomplishing that goal with looks to match. Similar reviews were published in Robb Report, Absolute Sound, Listener Magazine, and Vacuum Tube Valley.
In 2005, Craig developed Eddie Current to offer sophisticated listeners a similar, affordable sound experience through online direct sales. His approachable manner in sharing his audio expertise with others, unsurpassed customer support and unwavering commitment in designing and developing amplifiers that perfect the art of listening is now known around the world.
