AKG K240 MKII Professional Semi-Open Over-Ear Studio Headphones

Product Description

AUDIOENGINE IS AN INDEPENDENT SPEAKER COMPANY BASED IN AUSTIN, TX.

In 2005 Audioengine was founded with a simple goal: Build a speaker that sounds great, is easy to set up and use, and that makes people want to listen to music every day.

Audioengine’s core products are powered speakers; all-in-one music systems which allow you to connect all your devices wirelessly (or wired) for great stereo sound. They started with just one powered speaker, the A5; simple and beautiful, yet versatile enough to be used in your workspace as computer speakers, on stands in your living room, or in a home theater setup.

But the Audioengine team wanted to offer even more for their customers. After years of hard work, the versatility of their products was pushed even further by offering a number of add-on audio products that can be used with existing music systems.

Their passion is to help people hear all their favorite songs as they were meant to be heard and to discover new music and appreciate it with the highest sound quality. And they’re doing exactly what they had planned, which is to change the way people listen to music. Audioengine is now proud to offer a complete line of products that bring the sound quality of professional studio monitors right into your living room, without the inconvenience of multi-device stereo receivers or big clunky passive speakers.

So now we’ve highlighted WHAT Audioengine does, but that hardly defines what a company is all about; so now let’s dive into the WHO and WHY of Audioengine.

WHO?

Audioengine founders, Brady and Dave, have been in the tech industry a long time.

They’ve worked separately and together for companies such as Harman, Apple, Gibson Guitars, Alesis, and others. Both are experts in their field and, after realizing a common dream of introducing new audio products and holding them to the highest possible standards, they decided to launch Audioengine..

Brady and Dave both loved technology and more specifically music.

Audioengine strives to design products that stand the test of time, and not become obsolete after a few short years. We don’t make “copy-cat” or “me too” products, instead we focus on giving customers a completely unique listening experience by making gradual and necessary updates to our already successful products. Product development is the heart of Audioengine, and we gauge our success by the number of customers that literally smile when they hear the difference between our systems and everything else

A whole new audio experience!

WIRELESS THAT REALLY WORKS

Every App, Every Device

In 2005 Audioengine was founded with a simple goal: build a high quality speaker that sounds great, is easy to set up and use, and that makes people want to listen to music every day. Since then, this mission has guided Audioengine in designing a range of premium products that stand the test of time. All Audioengine products are custom built using high end components such as kevlar woofers, analog amplifiers, and hand built wood cabinets with no off the shelf or mass produced plastic parts.

The HD3 Powered Bluetooth Speaker is a perfect example of the extension of this mission. With music streaming services and digital music players becoming the centre of the modern music system, consumers have had to accept a loss of the premium components resulting in the loss of sound quality. The HD3 Series of Desktop Speakers are a culmination of 13 years of product development, combining the same exceptional sound quality with modern features, including high resolution aptX HD Bluetooth with 30 meter range. The built in analog amplifier allows traditional Hi-Fi speaker separation and the analogue audio inputs allow connectivity from many different sources, including a computer, turntable,TV, or Sonos Connect. The HD3 is an incredibly versatile audio system.
