Wolff Audio Acquires Pulse Techniques, Preserving the Legacy of the Brand
Santa Barbara, CA – Sept 24, 2025 – Wolff Audio today announced the acquisition of Pulse Techniques (Pultec), the iconic pro audio company renowned for its faithful recreations of the legendary Pultec equalizers. The acquisition marks a major step in Wolff Audio’s growth while ensuring that the celebrated Pulse Techniques legacy will continue for years to come.
Steve Jackson, owner of Pulse Techniques, has been preparing for retirement and personally selected Wolff Audio founder Paul Wolff as the ideal steward for the company’s future.“After years of building Pulse Techniques back into a world-class brand, it was important for me to find the right person to carry the torch. I couldn’t think of anyone better than Paul Wolff,” said Jackson. “Paul’s reputation for design excellence and his deep respect for audio history give me complete confidence that the Pultec legacy will be preserved and expanded.”
Wolff Audio views Pulse Techniques as a prestigious and highly synergistic brand within its portfolio. While Wolff Audio is acquiring Pulse Techniques, the company emphasized that Pulse will continue to operate as a separate entity, maintaining its unique identity and product line.
Production will remain in Fort Collins, Colorado, with the same experienced staff building the gear to the uncompromising standards that engineers and producers around the world rely on.
“Pulse Techniques is a crown jewel in the history of professional audio,” said Paul Wolff, co-founder of Wolff Audio. “We are honored to help carry its legacy forward. By keeping production in Fort Collins with the same skilled team, customers can expect the exact same quality and authenticity they’ve always known—now with Wolff Audio’s support and resources behind it.”
“As both a longtime user and admirer of Pultec EQs, I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Pulse Techniques into the Wolff Audio family,” said Jay Porter, CEO of Wolff Audio. “Pultec’s have always ranked among my favorite pieces in the studio, and it’s an honor to ensure they remain available to engineers and producers around the world.”
