Apature is a synonym for apature, meaning "the space between two things." In audio applications, this space lies between the interfacing of two or more electronic components; component to speakers; and speakers to the listener. All of these spaces are similar and governed by the laws of nature that we know as physics. To work within these laws, with the understanding that nature harnesses the spaces to connect what they separate, Apature brings those who listen closer to what they should hear.
