Welcome to Fidelis!
We're a high-end audio shop located in Derry, NH, run by music lovers, for music lovers. Fidelis is owned and operated by a well-known audio veteran:
Walter Swanbon
Considered by many as one of the leading audio consultants in the country, Walter brings his 30+ years of A/V experience to bear. He's worked in the sound reinforcement field, engineered live recordings, and performed as a manufacturer's representative and consultant for some of the top companies in the audio world. In the early 80's, Walter developed and owned AudioVision, a highly-regarded audio shop in the Boston area. In the 90s, he owned and operated Ensemble Music Systems in Nashua, NH. Now for the new millenium, Walter has gone back to his roots with Fidelis, a store for serious music and film lovers.
Bill Henk, Store Manager
Bill was bitten by the music bug at a young age and brings a music lover's heart and perspective to high-end audio. WBCN's wide- ranging progressive FM radio of the latter 1960's inspired Bill's choice of a Television-Radio major at Ithaca College. After stints as Music Editor of the Ithaca’s newspaper and Music Director of the college radio station, as well as time at Cornell's WVBR-FM, Bill spent professional time at a number of radio stations throughout New England. He has managed numerous record and audio stores in Vermont, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Bill's dedication to customer service has been of a great benefit to Fidelis, as well as all our clients.
Arthur Katsikas
Arthur Katsikas is the consummate audiophile and our resident "tweak guru.” For the last twenty-five years, Arthur has developed a genuine expertise in extracting the most out of any type of audio equipment. An analog expert and turntable setup artist, Fidelis is very happy to have Arthur's audio alchemy available to our clients.
David Plummer
The Fidelis service department is located on-site, and is run by Dave Plummer. David has an impressive resume with decades of experience as a technician of audio and video equipment.
In addition to servicing all types and brands of equipment, Dave has a knack for coming up with improvements and modifications for a variety of equipment, including both tube and transistor products. The Fidelis service center is factory-authorized to do service on most brands that we carry.
Brooks Tanner (Resonant Woods)
Brooks Tanner, owner of Resonant Woods, has a special place on the Fidelis team. While Brooks is a music lover first, he applies his unique skills and passion as a master carpenter and machine specialist to high end audio. Brooks offers custom equipment furniture, beautiful acoustical treatments, and even custom speaker designs. His woodworking skills and his quest for perfection have become legendary in Southern New Hampshire and beyond. A veteran of the “high tech wars” of the 80s and 90s, his electrical engineering background has helped Fidelis develop the first and only authorized Harbeth speaker upgrades.
