Walt is inducted into the Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame — in the same class as Apple’s Steve Jobs! Walt is recognized for his pioneering role leading broadcasters, fellow dealers, the press and the general public in the transition to digital audio. He was also cited for his organizing role in the industry’s development, including in 1979 co-founding and serving as the first full-term president of what became the audio/video industry’s largest trade group, PARA, which ultimately merged with the Consumer Technology Association, and for co-founding in 1984 the industry’s first dealer-owned distribution company, Assured Systems (later acquired by BrandSource).
