John Morgan Eargle was an Oscar and Grammy-winning audio engineer and a musician. He was the Chief Engineer for Delos International, author of seminal textbooks on audio, a consultant for 31 years at JBL, and past president and fellow of the Audio Engineering Society. Eargle and his colleague, Mark E. Engebretsen, can be directly credited for the revolution in cinema sound reproduction after 1980. They presented a paper to the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers demonstrating new concepts in cinema loudspeaker design. This led directly to developments culminating in the THX sound system developed by Tomlinson Holman. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded the two, and a third colleague, D. B. Keele, Jr., a Scientific and Technical Award in 2001:
