About
Hello:) ….I’m Byron Thompson and l launched MBS Audio in April 2023 after realising that my passion for high-fidelity audio had grown far beyond a hobby. It was time to take what had always been a personal obsession and turn it into a professional mission—to help others experience the same profound connection to music that I’ve enjoyed for years.
But, as rewarding as system building can be, it’s not without its challenges. It takes time, effort, and a lot of patience to get things just right.
The true joy of this hobby lies in those moments when the music becomes almost tangible, when the sound is so lifelike it feels like you’re in the room with the performers. That’s the experience I aim to deliver to you through Hi-Hi Optimisation.
It’s well-known that music can have a profound impact on our well-being. Countless times, I’ve found that the stress of the day fades away as soon as I sit down and listen to my system, with the music working its magic. That’s why I believe a well-optimised audio system is more than just a luxury—it’s an investment in quality of life.
Ready to elevate your hi-fi system to the next level?

Something is compelling here about Byron’s offering with these products
"Two night and day moments in two days! Something is compelling here about Byron’s offering with these products; if you have the budget, I would strongly advocate spending time with Byron before you embark on an upgrade journey. He is highly engaging and good company, but he’s not a salesman. Don’t worry; the products do the talking for him!”

Absolutely!! In fact I have a customer who had spent over £10,000 on top-of-the-range Acustica Applicata room treatment and to his surprise one of the products I demoed still made an astonishing improvement. In his own words "I tried removing it from the listening room, but something was then lacking, which returned the instant the FEQ Carbon was reintroduced!"
-
Hi-Fi Optimisation and component upgrading are two distinct approaches to improving audio systems. Optimisation takes a holistic view, considering factors like room acoustics, power quality, and fine-tuning existing components. In contrast, upgrading focuses on replacing individual parts of the system. While upgrading a component can improve specific aspects, hi-fi optimisation aims to enhance the overall performance by addressing the interplay of all elements in the audio chain.
-
No, there are not any hidden costs beyond the initial consultation. Once you place an order, all future consultations are provided free of charge for you as an existing customer. I value your custom and will provide ongoing support without additional fees.
-
You do not need to do anything specific to prepare for the consultation. As I will be listening to your system in situ, everything should be as it normally.
-
My expertise lies in identifying your system's specific needs and introducing products that will yield the best results, some of which might surprise you. I carefully select demo products based on my PAVING framework and initial system assessment.
