The Medical Acoustic Instrument Company (later shortened to MAICO) was
founded in Minneapolis, Minnesota by Leland A. Watson in 1937. The son
of a prominent ENT doctor, Mr. Watson's first products were hearing test
instruments for ear physicians.
Coining the word "audiometer", MAICO designed the first hearing test instrument
with a "zero reference level", making possible for the first time the
accurate measurement of hearing losses. As the science of audiometry expanded,
MAICO grew to meet its changing needs.
From screening audiometers to complex diagnostic instruments for in-depth
examination, MAICO provided the tools for hearing professionals. In fact,
MAICO produced the first audiometer to be accepted by the American Medical
Association.
Today, MAICO still provides the best in hearing health care. MAICO audiometers
and tympanometers can be found in schools, hospitals, clinics and industries
of all kinds throughout the world. Health care providers train on MAICOs,
and professionals around the world continue to rely on MAICO products.
The future of MAICO is to continue its commitment to provide the latest
in technology and reliability to meet the needs of the world market. With
this commitment in mind MAICO will expand its presence in the diagnostic
and industrial markets and will continue to be revolutionary in design
and features.
