|||
'''Grundorf Corporation''' (pronounced grun-dorf) is an [[United States|American]] [[Loudspeaker manufacturers]] [[musical-instrument-Containers]] company headquartered in [[Council Bluffs, Iowa]], USA. |

== History == |
|||
Grundorf Corporation was formed in 1984 to manufacture and repair audio equipment for regional and touring musicians. As the business grew and its reputation for producing quality speaker cabinets increased, audio companies such as [[Celestion]] began using Grundorf to design and build their systems. |
|||
As Grundorf continued its focus on Protective Case sales, a growing demand from touring groups like [[Manheim Steamroller]] for sophisticated, application-specific audio systems kept the company occupied. |
|||
The village became famous on [[14 June]] [[1985]], when the [[Schengen Agreement]] was signed. To use this name recognition, the council of the commune of [[Remerschen]] decided on [[18 January]] [[2006]] to rename the commune to ''Schengen''. The [[Chamber of Deputies of Luxembourg|Chamber of Deputies]] voted on [[13 July]] [[2006]] a law [http://www.legilux.public.lu/leg/a/archives/2006/1503008/1503008.pdf] allowing the change of name, which was published on [[30 August]] [[2006]]. The law took effect three days later, and the name of the commune of Remerschen was changed to Schengen as of [[3 September]] [[2006]]. |
|||
Eventually, two complimentary divisions were formed: Grund Audio Design and Grundorf Case & Accessory. |
