As we celebrate our 75th anniversary, it's a perfect time to reflect on the remarkable journey that has brought GSI to this exciting milestone! Since its founding in 1949, by Rufus Grason and Steven Stadler, GSI has grown from a modest start into a global leader in the field of audiometric solutions.
In the early days, GSI made its mark by producing groundbreaking instruments for behavioral research. These devices were integral to university psychology departments, the pharmaceutical industry, and even NASA’s Project Mercury, where they played a critical role in training Ham and Able, the first space chimps. This spirit of innovation laid the foundation for what would become a legacy of excellence.
The release of GSI’s first commercially available audiometer, in 1952, marked the beginning of their commitment to manufacturing cutting-edge electronic medical instruments for hearing research and clinical measurement. This was a pivotal moment that set the course for our future.

And that commitment to dependability doesn’t end with the sale. GSI is deeply invested in building strong, lasting relationships with our providers.

The longevity of GSI’s brand is a testament to the trust providers place in us and our products, and it drives our passion behind supporting the audiology community with the same commitment that has defined GSI for three-quarters of a century.
