The Subtonic Story

We started Subtonic because we were tired of how quickly IEMs were made and forgotten. Products came and went with little care for longevity, in both construction and sound. The portable audio space felt stagnant, with few products pushing boundaries or offering anything truly memorable. So we came together with one goal: to create the best IEMs possible, with no compromises. We set out to make IEMs that are durable, intentional, and timeless in sound. Five years or ten, our IEMs will not only hold up but still lead the pack.

To achieve that, we took a different approach. We designed everything from the ground up, developed our own technologies, and refused to take shortcuts. Every decision was deliberate, down to details like the solder we use.

We also believe great sound demands great craftsmanship. We work closely with skilled local artisans and use only the highest quality components and materials. For those who take listening seriously, there’s no room for half-measures.

Subtonic is our answer to an industry that moves too fast and thinks too little. Our craft is proof of what’s possible when you do things differently.
