Updated 9/6/24 – See Quote from former Tweeter executive
Sandy Bloomberg, founder of Tweeter, Etc. and a truly significant consumer electronics industry personality, died this week on Tuesday, September 3, 2024.
One of the most prominent executives in modern audio retailing, Samuel Bloomberg, known by most as Sandy, founded a local store called Tweeter, Etc. with his cousin Michael in 1972. Eventually, Tweeter, Etc. would grow to 180 stores strong as one of the first multi-regional specialty A/V chains. According to his obituary on Boston.com, Sandy graduated high school in 1969 and quickly realized that college was not his thing. That realization marked the beginning of a company that would go on to become legendary in the many executives who started there and went on to make their own mark with significant roles all around the industry.
