Audio Media Grading (AMG), the music collectibles grading company founded by Steve Aoki, today announced the acquisition of Tuned In Grading, a high-growth company focused on authenticating, grading and encapsulating vinyl records.  Since 2023, Tuned In Grading has been a pioneer in the music grading industry and has provided collectors with a clear and objective assessment of the authenticity and condition of their most loved records.

The acquisition represents a dramatic expansion of AMG’s offering, adding Tuned In Grading – one of the fastest growing businesses in the collectibles space – to AMG’s already robust music authentication and grading platform.  Following the integration, AMG will cement itself as the leader in the music collectibles grading space and the premier destination for authenticating, grading and preserving all types of recorded music.

Jeremy Downs, Chief Executive Officer of AMG, said “What Rogers and the team at Tuned In Grading have built over the last year is incredible.  Their focus on the collector as the customer and their world-class operations has us excited to welcome them to the AMG family.  AMG and Tuned In Grading share the same DNA – we are both companies for music fans, founded by music fans –  and we are thrilled to continue this journey together over the years ahead.”

“I am thrilled to be joining forces with AMG and the amazing team behind their services and product,” said Rogers Healy, co-founder of Tuned In Grading. “As a Venture Capitalist and music enthusiast myself, it is so special to have been able to play a part in helping collectors preserve the music. We look forward to seeing the growth of the company and working with them along the way to keep the music alive.”

AMG will integrate Tuned In Grading’s operations over the coming weeks with their existing infrastructure allowing the combined companies to scale growth.
