SOUND IS A CATALYST AND A POWERFUL CREATIVE ELEMENT, HELPING TO FOCUS, INSPIRE, AND TRANSPORT YOUR MIND.

Brilliant sound and design motivate everything we do. We have a deep passion for building beautifully crafted, technically sophisticated sound tools. Designed to be modern yet timeless, our headphones, earphones and speakers utilize only the finest materials and are engineered to last, creating the perfect balance of aesthetics, strength, comfort and exceptional sound.

THE STORY BEHIND THE BRAND

Founder Jonathan Levine was first drawn to headphones after building a recording studio in his office to support his shared passions with his music-mad older son, Robert, an emerging DJ/music producer, and his design and tech-obsessed younger son, Justin.

Jonathan, a serial consumer products entrepreneur, envisioned headphones with both premium sound quality and elevated design that his sons could use. While in Washington, DC they came across a pair of WWII aviator headphones in a museum and could not help but notice how elegant and timeless the headphones looked. In that moment, Jonathan decided he wanted to design and build headphones that in 50 years would also stand the test of time.

SIMPLY PUT, OUR SOUND TOOLS LOOK AS GOOD AS THEY PERFORM.

Melt down most sets of headphones and you’ll be left with a lump of plastic. But, what if audio products were instead constructed from premium materials like fine leathers, stainless steel, concrete and other high-end finishes? We bring to market an uncompromising approach to elevated design, materials, craftsmanship and performance.
