During the period from 1968 to mid-1972 the company was engaged in extensive research and development activities. It was during this period that the company developed its first product. At present, the company produces four lines of power amplifiers; the "Professional Series", "Performance Series", "Grand Touring Series", and the BGW "Millennium Series".
In July 1974, BGW Systems was chosen by Universal Studios to supply power amplifiers for use in movie theaters worldwide. These amplifiers were an integral part of Universal's Sensurroundú sound system featured in "Earthquake", "Midway", and "Rollercoaster". During that period, thousands of BGW Models 750 and 750A's were purchased by Universal. And, most are still being used today in Universal Studios' theme parks.
The company's manufacturing facilities are clean and modern. The Sheet Metal facility is truly State of the Art. The 35 ton computer numerical controlled Turret Punch Press fabricates all panels, chassis and brackets. Bending operations are performed on two Press Brakes--one with numerical control back gauge (one axis); the other has two axes numerical control back gauge. Shearing operations utilize a six foot State of the Art Shear with a computerized gauging system. Graining operations are performed on a special time-saver graining machine. A CNC Machining Center allows fabrication of the balance of metal components and heat sinks. Having this complete facility gives the company the ability to develop new products quickly and to produce high quality packaging for all products.
