Westone Returns to Family Ownership
Colorado Springs, CO – October 1, 2025 – Westone Laboratories, a pioneering name in custom hearing solutions and professional audio innovation, is proud to announce its return to family ownership. TLS Sound Labs has acquired Westone Laboratories, marking a new chapter rooted in the company’s original values of quality, service, and care.
Founded in 1959 by Ron and Mickey Morgan at their kitchen table in Divide, Colorado, Westone grew from humble beginnings into an industry legend. The Morgans’ commitment to innovation and their guiding principle — The Golden Rule — produced breakthroughs ranging from BTE tubing to custom hearing protection to professional audio innovations for musicians.
In the years since the Morgans sold the business, Westone endured multiple ownership changes and industry challenges, compounded by the impact of COVID-19. Yet through it all, the employees — the heart of the company — never lost faith in the vision that started more than six decades ago.
“Today, Westone Laboratories is once again family owned,” said Justin Stack, CEO and Founder of TLS Sound Labs. “Our future success will rest on the same foundation that made Westone legendary: our employees, whose dedication, craftsmanship, and care drive everything we do.”
For customers and partners across the hearing healthcare industry, this new chapter means:
● Faster turnarounds: Our goal is 5 days in and out with no additional charge
● More pricing options: Introduction of our Business Partner Program discount (BPP)
● Higher quality: Attention to detail and efficiency in our processes to improve results
● Better customer service: Personalized care rooted in family values
● Stability and trust: A long-term vision grounded in stewardship, not short-term gains
With TLS Sound Labs’ leadership and the dedication of Westone’s employees, we are committed to honoring our heritage while setting new standards for innovation, quality, and service in hearing healthcare.

The 21st Century Lab
One advantage of creating a business from the ground up is that you're not attached to traditional ways of thinking about your product, customers, or business. You're free to explore all the possibilities that present themselves, act on the ones that make sense, disregard the ones that don't, and use the success and failures of others that came before you to mold your vision of the future.
Over the years we've updated and upgraded our equipment, processes, and understanding of the custom products we produce. Starting with the wax dip/hand pour process all the way to our current, fully digital design and print process, we've embraced change in every aspect of our business. We'll continue to evolve as a company in order to deliver the best custom products in the world, but one thing will never change and that's how we treat people. Respect, kindness, and empathy for everyone, because without that, what's the point.
From private lab to international lab
It's been a long journey since our humble beginnings in the back room of our Hearing Aid Center, learning in small doses what works and what doesn't. After many years of trial and error, we've finally become the custom earmold lab we've always wanted. Now that we've opened our private lab to Hearing Healthcare Professionals, we want to share that experience with you!
We know first hand what Otolaryngology Clinics, Audiology Clinics, and Hearing Aid Centers want for their clients and what they need from their earmold lab. Everything we do has been tested and vetted in the real world with our client's first hand experiences, allowing us to deliver the highest quality custom ear products at the best possible value. Sign up today and find out why we're the fastest growing earmold lab in the US!
