that's one hypothesis, but it is not confirmed. from wikipedia:
Booth and Brown have explained that the name Autechre can be pronounced in any way anyone sees fit. They pronounce it "aw-tek-er" /ɔ ˈtɛk ɚ/. They are also often referred to by the moniker "Ae." It has been claimed by several, but not confirmed, that the name Autechre comes from Audio architecture or Aural technology research.

Oh-Tech-Er... but with more of an A sound to the O... that's from a one of the guys in the band (forget his name) so pretty solid...
