Any help is greatly appreciated.
Mickey Mouse? It’s got an “M” and two ears.
Any info you can give might help. Where did you see it (country or region of the country)? What is it on?
It is on an old speaker. Home audio equipment.
United States, Colorado
Marshall? Marantz? Macintosh?
Cthulhu?
I put the logo into a reverse Google Image Search and got nothing. But maybe this list will help:
Is it on a speaker you have access to, or is it a picture of a logo you found somewhere else?
The speaker looks to be of 1970-1980s vintage. My guess is these are someone’s “house brand” so they may be hard to pin down unless you can find a name on the back.
If it’s your speaker, or you have access to it, isn’t there some kind of label on the back?
This. I’d say it’s a knockoff of Marantz.
We used to go to a local flea market and there were always sellers of car audio gear. It looked great - always like the top-brand stuff in style and so forth - but it was all bizarre non-names like “Mostio” and “Paneer” and so forth. Something about the OP logo looks like stuff from that source. Could be wrong.
Made me think of MusicMan, but they didn’t make home audio.
But the logo is nothing like Marantz.
I looked thru a list of “M” audio manufacturers, checked out each logo (not all of them had one in the Wiki page), looked at a list of M logos, and did some image searches. Nothing, not even close.
It occurred to me that it might not be an M, but two P’s back to back (think negative logo). Or not intended to be any letter at all, but just a design. The circles at the top look like abstract stereo speakers, though.
My guess is house brand, and a short-lived manufacturer.
'Tis a puzzlement.
If it’s a knockoff it might be an attempt to be reminiscent of Monitor Audio:

Kingfinnegan, is there any possibility that the logo has been rotated on the speaker? That might make it a W or 3.
OTOH, it may be from a company so small, obscure and forgotten it’s… forgotten. Speakers in particular were often built by small shops that came and went. Getting a few thousand silk-screened logo plates was often their first business step; throwing out 90% of them was often the last.
(I have a _____ Computer Systems plate I pried off an obscure piece of equipment long ago, the blank being my real last name. I prize it highly and move it from one primary workstation to the next. I also recall when every computer-builder store had their own 1-inch-square logo plate to go into the recess on XT and AT cases…)
It has the same “m” as this:

AFAIK, most whitebox builders still do this.
Ah. Haven’t seen a whitebox system in years.
