Cain & Cain Co. is a high-quality, high-end home stereo speakers manufacturer in Walla Walla, Washington.  Cain & Cain loudspeakers stand out from others with the use of natural solid woods and natural wood-ply cabinetry.  Not even a speck of MDF, HDF, or inferior fiberboard is used. There are no metal screws, brads, or rivets holding the cabinet together, only true old-fashioned precision joinery and heirloom-quality construction.

Terry Cain is a master craftsman.  Each one of his products, from the Abby to the Studio Ben ES, has heirloom quality.  However, fit and finish alone don’t make a great loudspeaker.  Cain has devoted countless hours to the study and implementation of cabinet design appropriate for single driver loudspeakers.

The realization of full-range, single-driver speaker technology has been a particular obsession of the Japanese.  By this knowledge with his unique ideas, Cain has produced extraordinary single driver loudspeakers. Full-range single driver speakers attempt to cover the entire audible frequency spectrum by using only one driver unit.  This eliminates the need for an electronic crossover network, usually known for being difficult to design without introducing colorations to the sound.

Cain is well-trained in old world traditions of joinery and hand finishing.  To him, building a loudspeaker is similar to building a musical instrument.  He eschews the use of MDF and fiberboard, and favors solid wood baffles instead.  "Single driven speaker systems when properly set up and fed a nice clean watt or two can provide musical enjoyment far beyond what multi-way speakers are capable of.  These speakers do not ‘wow’ you with what they are capable of. They will ‘wow’ you with what the musician is capable of,” Cain said, in reference to the Abby Loudspeaker.
